So you'll just spout crap and if we don't like it we can go somewhere else? No. I wouldn't mind at all if you just had a PR appreciation society in a corner somewhere, but these are public forums.

What really gets me is this:

You actually say that like it means something. In fact you said it with such conviction I just had to go out and find out what works for me. No doubt this will be the new metagame:

^^ROFL^^ PROOF ENOUGH

To OP:

If you dont want feedback then dont post on the forums man. Basically everyone who has posted said its crap. You cant gain adren, which sux. U cant sprint/rush which sux. Who cares about crit hits, because like everyone else says, they will kite you, so it sux. Its a waste of an elite, if you want to do some damage with a hammer, just use rush and stay in it, build adren and spike with a somewhat normal chain. A chain that uses knockdowns and, you know, USEFULL WARRIOR SKILLS.

I'm not going to say anymore, because you tested this in RA which is the worst PvP environment you could possible play in. If you really wanna test it, get 8 COMPETANT PvPers and scrim each other and see how it works, cause ur gonna be running around with your hammer not hitting anything, because you cant reach them, and then a REAL hammer warrior is gonna come over and dev hammer you then crushing blow and you will be running around with "I Will Survive!" on but still cant do any damage cause u have weakness, convered with a deep wound and you STILL cant reach any target. If I played against you as a war I would just wand spike you until i was filled up then KD you and frenzy my spike, then you would stand up and I would kite more.

GG buddy dont post if you dont wanna know the truth about your build, and the truth is, it sux.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but
1) Your build didn't make you win 75% of your battles.
2) Theres no such thing as good in RA

Primal Rage is crap compared to almost every other warrior elite. No IAS, and you cant use any other skills.

It is a good idea to use skills before, but once you use primal rage healing signet is down for 10 seconds, which can be hurtful.

25% faster, health regen, high chance of critical, 20% armour pen, all at once. Shame about no attack skills.

Heres the problem with this discussion its you. Your build worked in RA. Thats not exactly what you can call a valid form of testing. And stop trying to disrepute every opinion that dpesn't agree with your own. Overly bias thread creators never make a discussion go far.

I heard that Primal Rage in it's testing stages used to NOT disable skills, and when used with Executioner's Strike, Galrath Slash or other high damage melee attacks, they could easily get up to around 250-300 damage in a hit!

But needless to say, they toned it down... alot.

The only thing I can think that it would make it any good, is if another warrior beside this one used "Charge".

And people who think i care about other forms of pvp go where..? The only pvp I really do was AB and RA, ive done TA once, didnt really like it. And i've realised the skill kinda sucks, but if you have a build centered around it (A few posts up) Its OK. But too much hastle, really. If ANet made it have a speed/attack speed boost, it would be great.

No, RA is a perfectly legitmate form of pvp (assuming you pvp for fun and don't get frustrated easily). It's just that there's no point in posting builds based upon success in RA as evidence that a skill is good, because like empty skillbar warrior showed us, anything can work in RA.

Out of curiosity, anyone try sticking primal rage on a team with some sort of charge warrior? The DPS on primal rage really is pretty good, not sure if it's better than a vanilla warrior or a thumper though. If anything, it might be ok for turning midline mesmers into energy sponges for the monks.

Primal Rage is a decent elite, but the downside of it makes it rather unliked by the general public...

It's purpose is to maintain a steady DPS, NOT to spike... if you try to use it for that, quit the game and get some common sense before you come back.


For example (just thinking this up right now), go W/A

Siphon Speed, Primal Rage.
The guy can't kite properly whilst you pound him with several high-damage auto-attacks

so spread the word, stop using cookie cutter builds and try those never-used/hated skills in a different way!
