This build is a variation on a classic Hundred Blades build, with some nice Norn pve skills in it, hence the name. Using it is a breeze, because most skills are straightforward.

First use "I am the Strongest!". This skill will stay on you until you get an x amount of hits, so it can be used far in advance. When engaging, use Enraging Charge to get some adrenaline. Then, whenever "Dodge This!" is ready, use it. And for the rest, it's standard damage dealing. Power Attack is used for additional damage, as is Sun and Moon Slash. Use Hundred Blades when you see fit, preferably together with Flail for more extra hits. And "You Move like a Dwarf!" is your long range interrupt scream from hell :p

"Dodge This!" and "I am the Strongest!" combined gives your normal attacks a great boost in damage, and together with Hundred Blades and Flail, your damage output is great.
Power Attack can be switched with any other attack skill, or even with a skill like Deadly Riposte if you put some points from Strength to Tactics.

There we go. So try it out, and have fun with it. And if you happen to find a good combo with a secondary profession, let me know in the comments section.
