Yeah, I was mistaking Storm of Blades for Hurricane. My bad.
But definitely, Rain of Blows over Trip Up.

True, but this all assumes you aren't using your Boots to replace the MBA with a multi attack to double, tripple, or quadruple dip on the charge package. Warforged Juggernaut. Charge -> Boots -> Hurricane of Blades -> AP (Get back Hurricane of Blades) -> Hurricane of Blades. And you may have a move left and maybe a minor.
What is the name of those boots? If you mean Boots of the Mighty Charge, I do not like them. Daily usage is too restricting. I prefer Clearing Cleats (for their property), Boots of Teleportation, or maybe Battlestrider Greaves/Boots of the Infinite Stride/Sandals of Avandra.
Yes I am talking about Boots of the Mighty Charge. I realize they are a daily, but at the same time you charge and kill something. Its as strong as using a daily attack power. Then change your boots. They are so cheap, really you should keep a smelly old pair strapped to your adventurer's Backpack at all times.
In other news, I realize my above sequence was incorrect. My AP turn says you can recharge Hurricane of Blades on AP, but I know that isn't true. So same thing with RoB in the mix instead of HoB.

Martial Mastery, epic tier feat that lets you regain the use of a martial encounter power when spending an AP for another action.

Nice guide for slayers you have here. I personally play during my encounter beta tests a party that includes a gnoll slayer named grizzle. He's a freakin beast capable at level 12 (or was it 16? cant remember) of pumping out well over 200 points of damage (by my calculations) if he gets lucky. Useally however he quite reliabley puts out 48-80 points of damage per round and is actually quite durable. He once took on two elites of his level almost by himself. Slayer is an awsome class if built right.

I have a Lair Assault coming up, and I'm looking to bring a charging slayer. This Lair Assault (Temple of the Sky Gods) has one interesting detail, in that all PCs will be mounted. So Lances, Pack Outcast and Lancing Gloves will be awesome. Here's the build, did I miss some tricks to get the damage higher? Rules: level 7 character, one free lvl 8,7,6 item, and 1800 gp. Maximum of 2 consumables of level 7 or lower. Spoiler:

attack for damage like Power Attack is normally a bad trade.
You probably want more then one Frozen Whetstone.
how do you get +19?
I get
3 ( 1/2 level) + 5 ( ability ) + 2 ( proficiency ) + 2 ( enhancement ) + 1 ( weapon talent ) + 1 ( charge ) + 2 ( power bonus ) + 2 ( ca ) = 18

You missed Spear Expertise.
Lair Assault is just one encounter, so one whetstone should be enough.
What would you suggest instead of Power Attack? Preferably something that increases either accuracy or damage.
