Have you tried it?
Do you use it?
What do you like about it?

I've make my second hero Tanker (Sir Gladuhad) using Will Power and Duel Blades in the 30s levels. I'll also deleted a villain Stalker (Shogun Ninja Master) and recreated him as a Will Power, Duel Blades Scrapper in the 20s levels. I love playing both of them better then any Brute, Scrapper, Stalker or Tanker that I've ever created before so I thought I would ask everyone else how they feel about the new Will Power set?

Will Power is an awesome powerset.  Its about as close to Regen as you can get as a Brute or Tank.  Its extremely versatile and lends itself well to herding with Brutes and Tanks.  It does have a couple of weaknesses though. 

First and foremost, it has no "burst" heal.  Sure, it has tons of healing, but its all done over time.  There is no "Oh crap" heal in the powerset, which means its probably a good idea to take Aid Self from the Medicine pool. 

Second, it has a mix of both defense and resist based shields, which is all well and good, but since it has to do double duty, it doesn't have as high a defense rating or resist rating as some other sets.  I'm actually debating on whether to take Tough from the Fighting pool on my brute at this point. 

Even with all this, I think it is one of the best powersets out there.

I know that I like it enough that my Will Power/Duel Blades Tanker Sir. Gladuhad (His ancestors are Sir. Lancealot and Sir. Galahad and his father is Sir. Hasalot)as made it to level 40 with only 10 deaths so far. Last night I was on a PUG fighting Rikti and for the first time I decided to try herding and it was easy. Usually I just teleported into the middle of the group of villains and used my Rise to the Challage with taunt added to it to keep the crowd around me awhile the team blasted away. Last night it as decided that we needed to clear the groups around the graveyard before going inside it to attack the main boss of the mission and I was the only tanker on the team with any type of taunt power. I ran up to each group, ran a circle around them and then ran back to my team to ambush them.
