Default "Adrenaut" Warrior Build Platform

Just thought I'd share this with the world. It's not exactly a build, but a basis for many different types of builds. The point of this build is to generate infinite adrenaline as fast as possible. It can be used with any weapon type for anything a warrior would normally do. Here goes...

Class:
  • Warrior/Monk

Attributes:
  • 10 Smiting Prayers
  • [Other attributes can be modified as necessary]

Skill Bar:
  1. "For Great Justice!"
  2. Battle Rage (Elite)
  3. [Adrenaline Skill of Choice]
  4. [Adrenaline Skill of Choice]
  5. [Adrenaline Skill of Choice]
  6. Purge Signet
  7. Balthazar's Spirit
  8. [Resurrection Skill of Choice]

The execution is fairly straightforward. Cast Balthazar's Spirit ASAP and wait for your energy to regenerate. When you get into battle hit "For Great Justice!" and Battle Rage once it charges. Unload your three adrenaline skills on the unsuspecting foes (common quote from said foes: "WTF n00b warrior just pwned me"). Keep Battle Rage on (you'll have to hit it just before it runs out, and your adrenaline will return to 0 - fail to hit it and your adrenaline will just drop to 0 anyways). Use Purge Signet to get rid of any hexes (Soothing Images can be nasty here).

If you have any comments, I'd like to hear them.

Why put points into Smiting Prayers at all? You won't get a benefit from it if all you're using is Balthazar's Spirit.

It looks like all you would need to do is max Strength and your weapon of choice (most likely Sword) with this build.

No, putting more points into Smiting Prayers definitely increases the amount of adrenaline you get from Balthazar's Spirit. It would be nice if you read skill descriptions before criticizing. Also, this concept works equally well with sword, axe, and hammer; it depends on what specific things you want to do with your weapon.

The build is actually pretty good for PvE missions with a party of players or henchies. A No No for soloing as it lacks healing skills. This build is a perfect example of a Warrior being a Warrior and leaving the healing for the Monks and what not. Very good concept for party-based missions!

I'd really like to emphasize that this platform is really built for PvP, but good stuff if it works for PvE too.

First off,Balthazar's spirit is a smiting enchantment for those who don't know.It regens adrenaline and mana at the same time.To solo with it,he would need to use something more like this:

B Spirit,mending,Healing Breeze,(Protection spell),Battle Rage,2 adrenaline skills,and a Shout skill.

This would work in th right places in a group or alone.Not for desert farming,but it is a start for any who would attempt it.This is more a survival build than a PvP adrenaline build.

Seems good but fact the whole build is only built on three adren skills for attack means if you lose all energy and adren you could be left wondering what to do. Also with no healing it rellys on a good monk but then again I like the idea of this fast sudden damage.

That is the reason for B Spirit.This enchantment gives energy and adrenaline if you are attacking or being attacked.The swiftness of the warrior's attack is the premise of this build. B Spirit,in conjuction with Battle Rage, make the warrior an adrenaline power juggernaught.The shout is for defense purposes,or he/she could always use IWAY when the team falls and he/she is the last man/woman standing.It works for mor than just W/Rs.
