General Explanation

This is my first build and don't have any intention of making a guide on how to play Fafnir. I may make guides for other gods in the future. I just wanted to share this build with you all as I have found great success when uses it. I only go full damage if there is a warrior or other guardian on the team. I love bracer just to deal with Anubis and burst assassins in particular. Makes a great escape as well, just throw your hammer and jump and you're home free. Never been good at conquest, tried a few games and got yelled at by my team. If someone could tell me if this build will suit conquest then please do so. I would love any help as I am brand new to this. Please leave your thoughts. Thanks!
