That's okay. Healing Hands and Gladiator's Defense are in Prophecies. So are Mending, Healing Breeze, and Bonetti's Defense. So no worries!

That hit you everything won't hit you, and if they did, half of them would ignore riposte/glad's. Power Attack is weaker than weapon specific attacks. It is a bad skill. Flurry and Flail are both more effective than Frenzy, altough smart use of Frenzy can work in some areas.

That used to be the case. But then they went and fixed the gear-tank.

Rera. I know what you're doing, you know what you're doing. It isn't helping these forums.

Rera isn't completely wrong, he does have a good build for tanking, but tanking doesn't work in PvE.

Heh. But the real question is, does Dr Imperial or Aura know what I'm doing? That's the crux of this entire issue.

Believe it or not, I'm not doing this out of malicious intent. On the one hand, I'm proving a point, and on the other hand I'm trying a new, less frustrating approach.

I mean, the experienced players have been saying the same things over and over again, and yet still these trash builds and newbies with their completely wrong and misguided ideas continue to appear. Do you honestly think anything is going to change if we just keep doing things the same way?

After all, if you can't beat em, join em, right?

Oh? Explain to me what you think is wrong with it.

Yeah, I know my build is amazing. If you think tanking doesn't work in PvE obviously you have never been in a good team. Where do you think tanking works then? Oh, PvP, that's right. Those RA newbies can never kill me when I have HH and Dolyak Sig and Mending. I can stand there for days and days until they all quit! LOL!

A new reader to these boards wouldn't know.

Maybe not. But is supporting poor builds going to help anythnig either? I know you're trying to prove a point, and being what some would call sarcastic. But I don't think enough people are aware of that.

I recall a post by you detailing the basics of good warrior builds, but for the life of me I can't find it.

Only join them if you think they're right.

My old post is somewhat out of date at this point anyway, since it was Factions+Prophecies. Haven't got around to updating it for Nightfall.

People love arguing, so much...

Ok, I vote for posts #2, #9, #12, #20. (all on the first page...)

Those ones are pretty good, by which I mean they're worth trying and not retarded. You can read what the skills do, and that's pretty clear.

I suggest taking 'Watch Yourself!' and 'Shields Up!', because they keep people alive, and not taking Defy Pain, because it's retarded, but that's just my opinion.

They love arguing, don't they?
