Other than SY? Whirlwind Attack, Asuran Scan. Many people use at least two of those three. If you're still rolling with HB then WW is a must.

What build are you using and is SY the only thing you want to change?

I usually run 100blades, EBSoH, Whirlwind and Dwarven Battle Stance
You can switch out DBS for BuH and use another IAS

No, you don't. Dwarven Battle Stance is an elite, and so is Hundred Blades.


Do you mean Drunken Master? Dwarven Stability?

Bit energy harsh for a warrior.

With 100b, Whirlwind is a must. I'd also suggest Drunken master and/or asuran scan.

If I caught a warrior putting down wards instead of killing shit I'd smack him.

Ward Spell. You plant an Ebon Battle Standard of Honor at your current location. For 14...20 seconds, non-Spirit allies in this area strike for +awesome damage and more +awesome damage against Charr.

Unless you have a midliner running right into the fray, it only makes sense for a frontliner to bring this. This bonus damage might not seem like much, but even with one character, hitting multiple foes makes the damage add up. There is obvious synergy between this skill and Hundred Blades, because each of those small packets receives the boost. Throw in Whirlwind Attack, and you are dealing a lot more damage. Add in another frontliner or two and your have a lot of damage. Also consider minions!

There is more to dealing damage than smashing things with Attack Skills.

Okay just to be clear you are running HB and you don't want to go with Godmode? 100B = hundred blades.

Have you tried earthshaker or going in axe? There's also Warrior's Endurance builds. Best thing you can do is check the sticky.

Zealous sword + IAS makes it very doable

HB; WW & MoP are great for solo/ raptor farming. The problem with these skills is that enemy scatter; and if your running h/h in HM unless you micro manage your heros carefully you will loose agro and they will get killed. Therefore i prefer resilliance to damage output. besides the 1 second cast for MoP allows for easy interrupt; so you'll be forced to take skills to counter that.

I prefer running a W/D with Armor of Sanctity. The added weaknes to foes really helps. Besides the bonus when running h/h; it allows for sublime solo farming almost any area in NM.

At 8 Earth Prayers you have 10 seconds of weaknes. Add condition skills like sever artery and gash for an added armor bonus; giving new meaning to the phrase Tank and Spank.

Not EBSoH; but Air Of Superiority; so you can maintain 100lolz and FGJ.
If there are several physicals on your team, someone could always bring it, of course. And yes, it would replace AoS.
