Flurry will reduce damage while increasing attack speed. For Great Justice can be used to build adrenaline faster, Tiger Stance can be used as an attack speed increase. I don't like Frenzy for PvE, you just get attacked too much.

If you want more damage then shift your elite to Eviscerate or Triple Chop instead of Gladiators. Even Cleave is OK if you don't have the others yet.

The enemies you face also make a difference. If you can use elemental damage vs warrior and physical vs most of the rest you may do better. If you know an enemy has a weakness, like fire vs cold or plant creatures, then use it against them. A vampiric mod also increases damage.

I typically carry 3 weapons: vampiric, zealous and fiery, and switch as needed during a battle.

I use a basic build:

Axe: 12 (+ rune)
Tactics: 12 (+ helm + rune)
Strength: 3 (+ rune)

Triple Chop (e) or Eviscerate (e)
Cyclone Axe
Disrupting Chop
Penatrating Blow
Watch Yourself
Doylak Signet
Healing Signet
Rez Signet

I use 12+3 axe 9+1 strength 9+1+1 tactics

Evis
Exe
Penetrating or a utilty
Endure
Frenzy
Sprint or rush
Heal Sig
res

I do around 100 damage with exe and evis penetrating does about 60. This build does decent damage and can heal some what if a monk goes down in a fight. I carry 4 or 5 weapons a zealous a vamp a -2 weapon (incase i need to be rebirthed when i get stuck) a staff and longbow for pulling.

you're runes are messed up.

You can go 11+1+3 / 10+1 / 10+1 if you don't want the 16 weapon mastery.

That is very similar to what I use for a general build, with variable axe or sword skills used and a monk rez.

I have sentinel's armor so attributes are a little different, something like strength: 13, weapon: 13, tactics: 11.

My PvE warrior build is:

Evsicerate
Axe Rake/Penetrating blow
Exe Strike
Watch yourself
Heal Sig
Tigers Fury
Rez Sig
Optional

15 Axe mastery (11 +3 + helmet)
12 Tactics (11 + 1)
6 Strength (5 + 1)
7 Beast Mastery (gives 8 seconds of TF, recharge is 10 secs)

Ok, seeing as this is a PvE build you'll want Triple Chop, as some people have said. Personally, I'd change it to this:

Attributes
Axe 12+3+1 = 16
Tactics 10+ 1 = 11
Beast Mastery = 8

skills
Flurry -> Tigers Fury
executioner strike
penetrating blow
cyclone axe
boneittes deffence -> Disrupting Chop
glads deffence -> Triple Chop [e]
healing sig
either rez or watch your self -> Res, definately.

Zealous Axe would be required.

Sorry for copy pasting the original build, but I wanted to see it whilst making alterations. It was also done to give an indication of what should be changed.

there is a very good build for a PvE W/R found here:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...d.php?t=132119
"Building a Better Warrior Part 2"

Its a solid build(s).. I use it quite often.
