Default I've resorted to primal rage as a PvE IAS...

There just don't seem to be that many viable IAS' that are maintable for a warrior on pve,as well as in HM enemies outrunning you during combat , if I ever go as an endurance war I can maintain burst of aggression with dwarven stability which is ok I guess...The other option I've tried is dwarven stability+ Tiger Stance, but none of these are as easy as ciritcal agility for sin, never rampage alone for ranger, soldier's fury for imbagon or even derv's having things such as heart of fury....Oh and drunken master is out of the question.

I would like some pve IAS's, mainly for warriors, reworked as alot of them have PvP in mind it seems.

Any suggestions?

[Flail]+["You Move Like a Dwarf!"] says hi. With the DSlash build Flail is recharged in plenty of time and with a cripple in the shout, you can stay with them. I don't see a problem with warrior IAS's.

Standard replies...I've tried pretty much everything and thing's like flail just suck in HM even with canceling. As for frenzy, drains a bunch of energy and has no +movement speed like primal rage.

Primal actually rules in PvE, because its cheaper than frenzy (fewer activations) and you can pingpong between killing everything with the IMS. Only drawback is losing your triple chop or whatever elite. If you run good hero bars, you can frenzy just fine even in hard mode with h/h.

Yeh what i'm looking for really is a non elite,maintainable IAS, or alternatively if battle rage had a 25% IAS in pve it'd pbe perfect. What I don't like about primale rage is that I do take alot of flak being upfront with minions that draw in enemies, so in HM it can be a death wish :S.

Back when everyone expected warriors to run obsidian flesh stance tanks in fow, I ran a frenzy axe war.

There's nothing wrong with them. Most mobs select other targets anyways because of warrior's high armor.

I thought primal rage was pretty nice in pve. But, I play with discordway (even with warrior) now, and an actual warrior bar isn't exactly needed.

I don't think Frenzy's a very good idea in HM...

They won't run if they are knocked so you can use flail at will.

Other options involve bringing someone with [deep freeze] or bring some [grasping earth] yourself.

If yotually read anything at all, then you'd know why. I said i've resorted to it, and not at all willingly, I've told you some of the other options I've tried, thsi trhead is about warrior IAS' in PvE sucking. In HM there's a big chance of getting pwnated with primal rage, as well as it taking up the elite slot.

To other posts, i'm not taking deepfreeze or grasping earth on a warrior/discord necro...

I don't spend 100g every time I use the skill. Its still pve, its still easy, push button get 15% IAS and IMS for 5 energy every 90 seconds or so.

Anyone that says to bring flail in PvE is just terrible at doing damage as a warrior. I spend most of my time moving from the target I killed to the target I just killed, losing 2 adrenaline from the rush cancel and the flail activation is going to choke hold even a FGJ/D-slash build.

Burst of aggression with WE also works pretty well.
