Need a very good damage dealing build for a PvE warrior.

Stormlord Alex · Jun 29, 2007, 02:48 PM // 14:48

Elite Attack skill
Attack skill
Attack skill
Utility/Attack skill
Flail
Utility / Speed buff stance
Utility
Res

Where utility is any number of interrupt skills, defensive skills such as Watch Yourself!, Healing Signet/Lion's Comfort, condition/hex removals, offensive buffs (Conjures and the like), a cap sig... and DON'T USE HEALING PRAYERS.

EDIT: had to attend to RL stuff, will finish post...

For example, a workable PvE build would be:

Eviscerate
Penetrating Blow
Executioner's Strike
Cyclone Axe
Flail
Rush
Mending Touch
Resurrection Signet

Not perfect, I know, but just an example... Merely follow the template and you'll be able to churn out workable warrior builds every time.

Edit again... A few pointers.

-Always try and include deep wound. It owns.
-Never bring Sever Artery without Gash.
-Hex/condition removals are useful, but not vital for PvE - you can check what skills the foes will use ahead of time, and bring them when necessary.

... and that's all I can think of for the time being. Carry on.

Thanks for such a fast reply, I will try it out asap.

To expand on what Alex said, that template is definately the best to worth with.
Depending on what weapon you're using, some attack combos you might want to look into are:
[skill]eviscerate[/skill][skill]executioner's strike[/skill][skill]agonizing chop[/skill]
[skill]dismember[/skill][skill]executioner's strike[/skill][skill]agonizing chop[/skill]
[skill]sever artery[/skill][skill]gash[/skill][skill]final thrust[/skill]
[skill]flail[/skill]is definately the best IAS skill for PvE, and for an run speed skill, take [skill]rush[/skill], [skill]dash[/skill] or [skill]pious haste[/skill].
In PvE, you should almost always be taking [skill]"watch yourself!"[/skill] and [skill]healing signet[/skill], as a party-wide armor buff can make a massive difference in your survivability, and a self heal is always useful.
Also, for some slightly different builds for PvE, you can try [skill]steady stance[/skill] or [skill]balanced stance[/skill] with [skill]desperation blow[/skill] and [skill]drunken blow[/skill], or use [skill]auspicious parry[/skill] to let you spam your attack skills much more frequently.

Try experimenting on your own to come up with something you like or may.That is the whole thing about GW is experimenting with various skill sets.

i disagree with u i dont think a big spike is needed for pve use cleave and dismember instead of eviscerate and executioner.

Marverick · Jul 02, 2007, 11:33 PM // 23:33

For Axes, [skill]Triple Chop[/skill] will normally be your best elite., it combines well with [skill]Cyclone Axe[/skill] and [skill]Whirling Attack[/skill]. [skill]Eviscerate[/skill] is good for spiking but there is no need for that in PvE.
Swords have [skill]Dragon Slash[/skill][skill]Sun and Moon Slash[/skill] to put out a constant stream of high DPS. [skill]Quivering Blade[/skill] isn't bad either. However, the Deep Wound from swords relies on foes being fleshy, so keep that in mind.
[skill]Enraged Smash[/skill] is great for Hammers to put out high damage, however note that you need to knock down to inflict deep wound, and non-elite knockdowns make you lose all adrenaline. So it would be best to have another source of deep wound in the party.

Emili01 · Jul 03, 2007, 09:37 PM // 21:37

This is what I got so far

Triple Chop [E]
Dismember
Penetrating Blow / Agonizing Chop
Flail
Mending Touch
"Watch Yourself"
Healing Signet
Resurrection Signet / Resurrection Chant

What do you think?

Stormlord Alex · Jul 03, 2007, 10:00 PM // 22:00

Awesome, it'll work fine - just remember, in areas with little blind/cripple, you could bring Holy Veil, Rush, or another attack skill thereover Touch instead.

What is wrong with spike builds in pve as it get the job done faster that is what everyone asks why I kill faster than they do?It would be good if more ppl brought spike builds to pve and tab threw targets that is another thing I do.

My Favorite PVE Warrior build

[skill]Battle Rage[/skill][skill]Protector's Strike[/skill][skill]Dismember[/skill][skill]Agonizing Chop[/skill][skill]Executioner's Strike[/skill][skill]Enraging Charge[/skill][skill]Healing Signet[/skill][skill]Death Pact Signet[/skill]

16 axe, 10 Strength, 10 tactics

If I have a trusted healer I will drop healing signet for Bulls Strike and change the attributes for 16 axe 13 strength.

I also love this build for alliance battles, its a pretty nice build that you can use in a lot of situations.
