Basically if you gain adrenaline consistently and you are only fear me'ing one monk, you'll basically put out 3 pips of degen which means that if they were using offering (their best bet besides ER), your fear me degen will completely cancel out and more the energy they gain from offering.

Point taken. I still have doubts whether building a warrior entirely around Fear Me is a good idea though, unless you're going to coordinate with other such warriors. If the enemy is bunched up, then I bet Fear Me owns. However, like you said, they start spreading out once they see you shouting it over and over, and at that point it really starts to lose efficiency.

I'm not saying it's a waste of time, but I think it's a good idea to make a build that can do real damage along with e-drain from Fear Me. I'd switch out Sword for Axe from the original build, use Sprint, Frenzy, Eviscerate, Executioner's, etc. Even with the energy denial, Sword just doesn't cut it for damage imo. I can practically ignore sword warriors on my monk, as long as stay above 50% to avoid Final Thrust (which his build doesn't have anyway).

12+4 Axe Mastery
11+2 Tactics
6+1 Strength

You can mess around with the attributes and switch majors and whatnot, but you need 13 tactics, no more, no less.

Cyclone Axe
To The Limit
For Great Justice
Frenzy
Fear Me
Echo*
Sprint/Rush (rush lasts longer and you're built to gain adr)
Ressurection Signet

We ran this with great success with QZ, I still think it's pretty good without it.

In a team build I'd rather have a caster run Dark Fury and then spec more into damage.

looks solid. i'd rather lose 3-4% attack power than 50 health since you already lost 75 health with the sup. so maybe:

axe 12+3
tactics 11+1+1
strength 6+1

just a thought

its worth considering signet of humility, to shut out E management elites (which lets be honest are the best by far)

wow thats an amazing idea....you inspired me to make a W/ME

Vindexus · Sep 21, 2005, 09:24 PM // 21:24

Signet of Humility would require you to spec into Inspiration and you're already hurting on attribute points.

15 Axe Mastery just seemed much weaker than 16 when I ran a Fear Me guy in arena.

the hardest part about using an axe is you dont know when you're doing real damage or not :/....i've ran at 15 before. it's a little bit of a dif but not huge. i guess it's all up to preference. i just hate to look at a 405 health bar lol but thats me
