The "budget" warrior build... W/E
All of these high end builds popping up here and there... I've decided to start posting a few of the lower end ideas... Things you would do under 3 conditions...
1. You couldn't get your elite, or BEFORE you get near any desireable elite. 2. Your armor isn't uber fantastic and doens't provide extra energy. 3. Equipment isn't bad, but could be better... This is for the learning experience that is a noob. A vehicle if you will to teach them like in training wheels how a build works, and then super tweaking them. [lots of the skills are just super versions of lower end skills but working with what you got and making it effective is what makes GW so good.] Runes, being uber cheap these days are not a factor in this budget build... stats: [based on the sword being the noobie favorite] W/E hot tamales 12+1+3 Sword Mastery 8+1 Strength 10 Fire Magic Sever Artery Gash Galrath Slash Final Thrust Frenzy Sprint Conjure Flame Immolate / Res Sig A pointblank bazooka, this build utilizes skills you get very early in game, with Beetletun being the last skill location for what you'd need. Galrath Slash... Sword is good in that none of the sword elites are an attack and you get your best skills [in terms of damage] quite early in game... No energy manager and no zealous string means that toasty enemies in a mob will be your goal...  Don't run away, you'll just die toasty... [Immolate rox as a distance attack] I'll try to post more poor-man builds later but I'm certain these would require a LOT more thinking time seeing as the uber-final builds that you get after unlocking and skill capping are quite easy to write up... |

A budget warrior build is a GOOD build using old and basic skills. Not Wannabe Casters...
If you don't like it, what would YOU do about it following said restrictions? What's more... Meteor sux on a warrior, plain and simple, however, Immolate does not... |

Well... If you truely are a skilled player... [heh heh]
I'd like to see you come up with skills that come from only the first half of the game... [which is about Henge of Denravi or earlier...] If you people didn't know, unlike other MMORPGS, this game's early basic skills are STILL useful come late game... +42 dmg Exe. Strike anyone? Plague Touch? Judge's Insight? Immolate? A lot of skills from early game are still used in 'final' builds. Key here is knowing what skills do... And if you can't do that, it's obvious that you don't. Anyone who knows how to think and read can come up with UAS final builds... It's a bit more helpful to the new guys to use skills they have easier access too. Then again, there are people who just spit on noobs rather than help them here. Sad really... |

Plague Touch? Judge's Insight? Immolate? [QUOTE] Judges Insight is actually a really good spell. It is part of my E/Mo smiter build that won halls yesterday. |

Why limit yourself to skills from the first half of the game if you are going to make the build with 200 attribute points, max weapons and runes? I'm just not seeing the point.

if ur new to gw, first time playing it? my advice is go play the pve game until at least ember light camp. get over your euphoria with glads defense, and start reading the forums for a good build dont jump straight into tombs pvping if you just started. itl only be frustrating

He did say this was a low end build, not an uber build. I don't think he meant use this once you have everything. I think what the OP is saying is that most of the builds listed on the web aren't helpful for the casual player going through PvE or starting out in PvP. You're going to have limitations to what you can build. You're not going to have everything yet. What you need is a strategy that works at the low level and can be scaled up as you progress adapting new skills that compliment your build. It's not hard. As the OP said, the elites are mostly stronger non-elites.
Barring running, it's not helpful to tell a newbie to play almost 2/3 of PvE before planning his build. The thing is no one is interested in helping out those who've just started. |

REAL low end build for warriors:
stats: as much weapon as you can get + biggest runes you can get as much strenght as you can get + biggest runes you can get as big a vigor as you can get as much absorption as you can get sprint frenzy rez sig if you use axe/sword you want a strength shield ...if I see one more person not using these 3 basic skills I'm gonna cry. |
