Us poor buggers who must meek out a meager existence in ra or pug ta as warriors feel very much that the game in imbalanced as I stated befor all of the above plus dont forget mesmers and necros rits too will own a warrior if he doesnt have a good monk behind him.
I have no sympathy. You think those of us who are in an organized group got there just by complaining? Hell no, we did somthing about it and got our selves in the position we're in now. There's no reason you can't as well.

And another profession will "own" those mesmers/necro/rits and your warrior will ( normally ) "own" that guy. It's pretty balanced.

U jsut got to remember not everyone is skilled at playing other professions so their might be a few players that do own u before u get to them. But if u have the right set up u can own them.

I would advise playing with a super standard build before even trying anything crazy. When you get the hang of it, then you can move on to different skills. And I mean *super* standard.

Hundred Blades {E}
Final Thrust
Gash
Sever Artery
Frenzy
Sprint
Res
Plague Touch/Mending Touch/Heal Skill (RA)

Once you can suceed a large amount of the time, then you know you're getting better....

Hundred Blades is substandard.

A generic Sword bar would be this:

Sever Artery
Gash
Final Thrust
Frenzy
Sprint
Healing Signet
Empathic Removal (for RA)
Resurrection Signet

If In Ra, add mending touch. Otherwise use your other slot for like sun+moon, shock, or bull's strike.

I like to use mending touch and reverse hex on my warrior in RA. It really helps vs those anti melee builds .

Dragon Slash is not standard.

Although, yes, it is an insane damage engine.

Strength: 8 +1
Swordsmanship: 12 +3 +1
Tactics: 10 +1

Flail
Silverwing Slash
Galrath Slash
Sun and Moon Slash
Dragon Slash {E}
Rush
Healing Signet
Resurrection Signet

Somebody confirm.

Unless you are in an organized group wth a specific warrior role to play, don't bother playing one in pvp. As things are now they ARE outclassed by the other classes in pvp and that's just the sad truth. If you want try to beat things to death use a dervish or sin or even a thumper.

Remember to clarify in your first line, Primary Warrior. Thumpers are sort of Warriors, after all.

But otherwise, yes.

I find the only thing warriors have got going for them is 2 second knockdowns from Stonefist Gauntlets. In some situations that can make a shock warrior or hammer warrior better at killing a monk than a thumper or sin.

Make your build primarily based upon adrenaline, then bring purge signet which removes ALL CONDITIONS AND HEXES...gg.

RA has a lot of melee hate, but you can definitely play a warrior there. I almost always play a warrior in RA unless I'm playing monk. Warriors are incredibly powerful. Sure you're not going to win every match, but this is true of every class. Assassins, dervishes, and to a lesser extent rangers and paragons are all subject to the same hate as warriors are, yet this doesn't seem to stop anyone from playing this classes and succeeding in RA. It's all in how you play. Bringing the right skills also helps, but playstyle is more important in my opinion.

The argument was misguided to begin with. Guild Wars classes and skills are not balanced 1v1, and aren't supposed to be. RA is meaningless.

One thing a lot of the whiners never consider is this: why is there so much warrior hate? The fact that people work so hard, and devote so much energy towards shutting down warriors should indicate a very important fact: warriors are ****ing scary.

If you want a really standard warrior build, play a shock axe. If the rest of your team has any damage at all, you'll be able to spike down targets pretty easily unless there's a cripshot or blindbot sitting on your face. If you want to get a bit fancier, play a telehammer. A lot more damage (and hence, a lot more fun), but also more fragile. Abuse the fact that most RA monks couldn't save an adrenal spike if you told them the target ahead of time.

Dragon Slash is a bad idea without a lot of support, because if they can make your DS miss, you are basically deadweight.

sigh, the common problem of PvE nubs.... well first off, before you try and experimenting with builds of your own, take a look at your b button. Now hit it, and wow the meta game unfolds before your eyes. Take a look at this meta, its friendly and lets you absorb it. Now, watch the class your trying to learn. See how they move, see how they dmg, see how they use skills efficentley. O and hopefully you realize that PvE sucks.
