Ideally a good PvE --> PvP Warrior will have multiple armor sets and the same goes for weapons. I'd suggest this to get you started:

Helms:

1x Executioners Helm of Minor Axe Mastery
1x Executioners Helm of Superior Axe Mastery
1x HoD Helm of Minor Axe Mastery
1x HoD Helm of Superior Axe Mastery

Chest:

1x Gladiators Chest of Superior Absorption
1x Berzerkers Chest of Superior Absorption

Gloves:

1x Gladiators Gloves of Minor Strength
1x Stonefist Gloves of Minor Strength
1x Berzerkers Gloves of Minor Strength

Leggings:

1x Gladiators Leggings of Minor Tactics
1x Berzerkers Leggings of Minor Tactics

Boots:

1x Knights Boots of Superior Vigor


As for the skills I'd suggest something simple to play like:

Axe Mastery 16 (12+4)
Strength 9 (8+1)
Tactics 11 (10+1)
Air Magic 2

Rush
Frenzy
Shock
Eviscerate(E)
Executioners Strike
Furious Axe
Healing Signet/Endure Pain/Whatever
Ressurection Signet

This is the exact way that I've set up my PvE Warrior. You'll end up with a total of 12 helms since you do the same for the other weapon types (just use the 1.5k stuff and hide it).

It's just a shame good weapons (despite the occasional green) still elude me =[

Very much /agree with Man With No Name, though I've never had much reason to switch leggings. The berzerker's leggings will only give, what, 15-20 hp? It's a judgement call, and I'm a cheap bastard. Switching out the runes and putting on a berzerker's cuirass puts me over 600 hp, which feels like quite enough. Just as well, I use gladiator's boots for the +1 energy - it's more useful than a small chance of damage absorbtion IMO.

As for weapons:

15^50 zealous axe of fortitude (+30)
15^50 vampiric axe of fortitude (+30)
15^50 icy axe of fortitude (+30)
air wand, +5 energy^50

With a shield:+30 health, -5 damage(20%) on all sets.

Some axe users like the furious mod, so that's a possibility. Zealous would be the necessary, undebatable weapon set. Never get sundering.

zealous axe (easily soloable): http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Wing%27s_Axe
vamp axe (endgame item): http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Dragoncrest_Axe
elemental axe: 15^50 health+30 axes are pretty common. just go to LA, find a korean farmbot who has one for 25k, and pick it up. it'll be a basic skin, but who cares?

Actualy, Knights set has been, and still is bugged. The damage reduction it gives is taken into account no matter where any attack hits you. 1 piece knights = global damage reduction.

[edit]
As well, the ideal wand to carry IMO is a collectors wand outside of Nolani. It gives +5 nrg always, as well as an increased attack rate, but be careful when you get it. It randomly adds 2 mods, which are chosen from - dmg, - crtical rate, and % chance to miss. Make absolutly sure you don't get the % miss chance.

The health bonus on Berzerker pieces is as follows:

Chest: +15
Leggings: +10
Gloves: +5
Boots: +5

Just wearing the Chest, Leggings and Gloves puts us at 545 (with one Sup) or 620 (all Minors) -- with the already high armor of Warriors that's makes for a difficult target to kill indeed.

Granted +30 health isn't a massive difference but it all contributes to paying off our runes or just giving us a boost @ VoD, against spike, whatever -- if we're not particularly energy-heavy I'd take Berzerkers over Platemail/Sentinels/Legionare's any day of the week.

I think everyone has one of these -- 3 Charr Carvings iirc.


If we're going on to equipment -- as far as Shields go you can't go wrong with these three:

-Exaulted Aegis 16AL (req 9 strength/tactics) +30 Health, -5 dmg (20% chance)
-Stoneroots Shelter / Victo's Bulwark 16AL (req 9 strength) +30 Health, -2 dmg in stance
-Geoffer's Bulwark 16AL (req 9 tactics) +30 Health +10AL vs Piercing


It's a shame good weapons still elude me. Personally I'm working off the following Greens. The collector weapons are all 15^50 but they don't include prefixes or suffixes =[

Axes:
- Wing's Axe (15^50, Zealous, +30 Health)
- Dragoncrest Axe (15^50, Vamp 3:1, +30 Health)
- Missing Elemental Axe =[

Swords:
- Victo's Blade (15^50, Vamp 3:1, +30 Health)
- Missing Zealous Sword =[
- Missing Elemental Sword =[

Hammers:
- Gavel of the Nephilim (15^50, Vamp 5:1, +30 Health)
- (Recently added) Ice Breaker (15^50, Cold Damage, +30 Health

I hope they keep adding some decent greens or alter existing ones (no more Sundering/Furious crap please). I'm personally not prepared to faction farm all day just to pay some kiddie retard 100k +Ecto for a single weapon. I can't say I've had great experiences with Chests either :S

I guess I've made a *budget* Warrior



EDIT: Fixed it =) - Good spot. Posting @ 12am+ is bad =[

Furious is still good on hammers IMO. They build slowly enough as it is.
