Help finishing my sampire build

I'm returning to the game after quitting in 2006. I've taken my pure warrior dexxer from that era and turned him into a sampire. Since some of my skills were already at 120 the build might seem a little weird but what I need to know is what to raise and what to lower to make room. Current build.

im at 45 hci 9 dci and with my current axe 1.5 weapon speed at 30 ssi.

I know I need more ssi, and ill get it as gear improves. Also the skills are shown with 30 Chiv on jewels.

what should I drop to make room for more bushido, should I cap swords and parry? I feel like im getting close to done, I have 100 resist on a soulstone but I like the way I hit with anatomy for now.

Okay got DCI up to 29 with option for 44 and weapon speed at 1.25. I'm hitting like a beast now able to solo ancient wyrm. Swords and parry capped at cost to anatomy. But I still need 18 points in bushido and I'm not certain where to take it from.

Maybe an admin can put this post in Warrior forum so u get much more attention and help.

Unfortunately...there's 100 different ways to skin a sampire skill selection depending on what ur hunting. With that said...I choose resist over parry :). I have parry on a stone to swap back and forth...but as my main day to day template I keep resist on. anatomy hits hard...that's a given. but nothings more irritating then catching an ill-timed blood oath from a DF when u drop a nasty AI or DS on him and hit for 220 when ur not 100% health. So yes...ur template allows u to hit harder, but (and I was a victim of it for awhile), I liked my template cuz I thought it was the best and I missed out on being great at everything so I could be straight nasty at 1 or 2 things.

as far as changing small amounts of skill to make room for bush...I'd pick anatomy. but...a total revamp (somewhat) would be to take chiv to 120 and take advantage of the hci+15, di+20, ssi +15 bonus that divine fury gives u. allows u the opportunity to either A) make a decent suit much sooner or B) make an elite suit more elite by not having to cram those extra points on.

thanks, ive got resist on a stone and will swap it out. I didn't consider the chiv route. I should have stoned it when it was at 90 but perhaps ill work on that now just so I have it to experiment with. I think resist will become vital for boss fights but for solo farming and skill gains I haven't really needed it. Paralyze is the only thing that really bugs me and it goes away when I take damage. I though parry was a must because it compliments bushido however I haven't experimented with it at all so ill try dropping that for resist to see what happens.
