I can't figure out what I've been doing wrong..

My current setup is:

W/Me
Inspiration Magic - 7
Strength - 8 + 1
Axe Mastery - 11 + 1 + 1
Tactics - 7 + 1

Cyclone Axe
Disrupting Chop
Endure Pain
Spirit of Failure
Warrior's Endurance
Dolyak Signet
Physical Resistance
Healing Signet

I only have Prophecies at the moment so can't use any of the newer skills.. Any kind of help would be appreciated. I'm trying to use this build to farm money and finish off the missions I havent done (Dragon's Liar and up) but I die way too fast no matter what I do.

Drop Spirit of Failure, seriously. You don't need it. Replace it with a Rez Sig.

Here are things you are doing wrong:

using spirit of failure

Not bringing a rez.

wasting your elite on warrior's endurance.

tanking.

^ warrior endurance is thonly elite he has availible if you read his post.

* whst i would do for team PvE * - Bring some more attacks, put flurry in somewhere, drop the mesmer stuff, drop warrior endurance, bump your axe mastery up.

Ok you dont have to stick to this but this is what I would change in your situation:

cyclone axe
penetrating blow
executioners strike
disrupting chop/rez
flurry
dolyak signet ( I hate it but if you want to use it )
watch yourself
heal sig

axe - 15/16
tactics - the most you can have so it and strength are equal
strength - the most you can have so it and tactics are equal

But you dont have to stick to that just go with what works for you.

I'd rather not run an elite than use warrior's endurance. Warriors have too many other good non-elites to sacrifice a slot on that.

SO true. A good skill bar with no elite for a axe warrior could look something like this.
Dismember
cyclone axe
executioners strike
distracting blow/disrupting chop
healing signet
watch yourself
flurry(not a huge fan of it but hate warriors without a IAS)
rez

Point spread
axe=12+1+1 ( I only use minor runes)
tactics10+1(more hp on signet and better watch yourself)
strength=8+1

Thanks a lot for the help everyone who answered. Are there no useful mesmer skills for a warrior?

warriorsmiley · Dec 23, 2006, 02:21 PM // 14:21

If your farming yeah you can use the mantra but other then that nothing to useful.

What would you reccomend as a second profession then? Currently I've been switching between wamo and wame... but the only wamo seems to be good for is farming.. is tehre any good type of warrior for pvp?

Don't use whammo's in PvP.

Go with W/A or W/E.

Talib · Dec 23, 2006, 04:57 PM // 16:57

Ok thanks... since I dont have factions yet I'll stick to W/E

warriorsmiley · Dec 24, 2006, 03:32 AM // 03:32

You can also go W/N with Plague Signet(elite condition transfer which gives all of them to the target) or Plague Touch (transfers one condition from you to target and have to be in touch range). W/R and use Tigers Fury (still a decent IAS). Also the mantra's you use depends on what your fighting if your fighting fire damage dealers you'll take mantra of flame or fire.

He only has Prophecies Thom so he is very limited on skills especially good ones.
