Please. Don't tell me I need to learn how to use a sub-par elite IAS, when it's you who needs to learn how to use Frenzy effectively and allow yourself the use of a useful elite.

Let's settle this nonsense quick.

[skill=big]Soldier's Stance[/skill]

By the stance's description, it appears to be a relative waste of an elte slot due to its condition and its use of the elite slot in general. When you use an elite, your first question will always have to be "What justifies it as an Elite?" If it was more RaO and less Frenzy without the armor penalty, then maybe it would be nice to use.

[skill=big]Flail[/skill]

Flail will always get the nod for a few strong reasons. 1) It's adrenaline powered. 2) Even if it is wildblowed by something, it is powered quickly and 3) Even if canceled, what applied in 2 applies in 3 as well.

Then it doesn't take up the elite slot...you really can't win that fight. Let it go.

What I always wonder is why warriors take self heal in PvE, the way I see it is that by the time you use heal sig the monk already has you at full health, that frees up an extra slot. I dont take heal sig and always been fine. Would like thoughts about this.

If I were to PuG, I'd likely take Healsig because PuGs suck and you can't rely on the monks.

With Heroes/Hench, I don't bother. I never end up using it, AI's too damn fast with the heals. Instead, I'll whack another attack skill, WY!, TNTF!, SY! or somethin similar on there.

If I'm with an organised guild team, similarly, I don't need a heal - the situations where it could be useful... don't exist.
I'd rather have that spot open for chaining TNTF! with the other D-Slashers and Mind Blasters.

Even with a speed buff, it would be a waste of an elite in PvE.

You always take a self heal for both PvE and PvP.There are several variations you can use for DS.These would include standing slash.silverwing slash,Galrath slash,sun and the moon,sever and gash along with frenzy(PvP)flail(PvE).

"Save Yourselves!" effects only your party members, not you. And you would need to have a very high Kurz/Lux rank to get something close to a decent time on it. And Warriors already have 100 armor to physical, 80 to Elemental which is still nothing to scoff at.
