Some general thoughts/suggestions:
- Vigilance is paramount for success for its reduction in damage to you
- Heaven's Fury is great for crowd control and collecting aggro, coordination
is a must.
- Runefang adds a lot of parry when it procs, stacking well with coordination/-
shield rush.
Here's an RvR build that works for me that you may consider testing
partially or the whole thing:

I choose to use wounds talismans generally for PvE, counting upon set bonus
for things like Initiative (2p Darkpromise), and reduced chance to be crit, which
for ANY PvE instance past crypts/tunnels, should be 0% or as close as you can
possibly manage.
Generally, put renown points into strength, weapon skill and initiative (amounts
to your taste), that way when you respec to PvE, which you will do regularly,
you don't need to respec renown points as well.
