Which campaigns do you own?

looks ok, I personaly would probably make a few changes
(This is if you have all 3 capmaigns)

replace endure pain and bonettis defense with 2 of these

Endure- Plague tough, Mending touch or Conjure Element

Bonettis- Flail, Frenzy (not recomended for PvE), Burst of Aggresion or Flurry

But thats just what i would do, the build looks ok as it is.

P.S. I wonder if anyone will come in and shout dragon slash....

Factions, eh? DRAAAGOOON SLAAASH! Seriously, for general PvE, a Dragon slash sword build is one of the better options, allowing you to cycle through high-power sword attacks throughout a battle.

Once you get Nightfall... you'll be able to run the DSlash build I posted somewhere else...

Strength and Tactics are invested in for the rest, I'd say at least 8 Strength to hit the 3 adrenaline breakpoint on Enraging - Typically I run 8+1 Strength, 10+1 Tactics.

Dragon Slash (e)
Adrenal Sword Attack 1
Adrenal Sword Attack 2
Adrenal Sword Attack 3
Flail
Enraging Charge
Optional - Healing Signet, Mending Touch Lion's comfort, Watch Yourself! etc.
Res

Basically, use Enraging Charge to get to the enemy, and after hitting them, activate Flail to attack faster, dealing more damage and gaining more adrenaline. Use your sword attacks when you can, and use Dragon Slash to charge them all up again, use them, Dragon Slash, use adrenal attacks again, Dragon Slash... ad infinitum... Or till your opponent is dead.
If your foe runs, you can use Enraging charge to cancel Flail and chase him down, or, switch to another target. Use your optional skill to... uh... do whatever it is it does.

As for the sword attacks, it depends on personal preference. for example, against the Stone Summit, I used Sever Artery and Gash to bleed and deepwound, and Standing Slash for damage. Against the Djinn, I went Galrath, Silverwing and Sun&Moon Slash.

Ripped straight from another thread. I'm lazy and busy

There... by no means perfect, serviceable and moddable depending on your tastes.

Have fun.

Don't use Bonnetis in PvE, also I suggest an elite such as Warrior's Endurance with energy costing attacks, or Floruish, whichever you prefere. That typically makes for a spammable decent PvE warrior. Hell, anything for PvE works practicaly, as long as you can kill. But the choice is yours friend.

LightningHell · Mar 21, 2007, 04:06 AM // 04:06

Warrior's Endurance and Flourish are wastes of Elites. DEAL MOAR DAMAGE KTHX.

lrishmonkey · Mar 21, 2007, 08:33 PM // 20:33

Yeah, Gladiator's Defense, Defy Pain, Dwarven Battle Stance, ViM, Bull's Charge, Whirling Axe, Forceful Blow, Primal Rage, Quivering Blade, Coward, Auspicious Parry, Decapitate, Magehunter's Smash, Headbutt, Crippling Slash, and You're All Alone are better than those. Oh, and Skullcrack.

Hey dude, if ur not content with stayign w/mo, then i can share my build with you. Ive Converted many guild mates and friends onto this build..Give it a try.

W/R - Energy armor set + 1 attunement rune for 30 energy

14 axe mastery (major rune on a +1 helm)
11 str (minor rune)
10 wilderness survival

Skills; Troll Unguent - Penetrating Blow - Dismember - Penetrating Chop -Burst of Aggression - (any energy attack skill you like, i use furious axe or power attack) - Counter Attack and Finally The warriors best friend - [E] Melandru's ressilience.

Use BoA in the right place and you can get a nice chain going, it's strictly a a pve build used by me in the completion of all 3 campaigns.

relieves some pressure from monk when (and you will ..frequently as you know) get multiple curses and hexes thrown at you. I'm biased obviously but i'll tell you somthing buddy, i havnt come across a PvE situation yet (bar UW AND FOW) That this build can't handle well..

Lots of people will be like "wtf omgJuk3n is teh noob" and fair enough i accept the critique..but trust dude, just try it.

samcobra · Mar 27, 2007, 04:31 AM // 04:31

honestly, why bring a self heal? thats the monk's job. You're in GROUP PVE, meaning you're not supposed to be splitting off, etc. Therefore, I suggest a build like this:

Dslash, Barbarous Slice, Gash, Sun and Moon, Galrath, Silverwing, Enraging Charge, Prot Strike

If you want, you can drop either galrath or silverwing for a res. However, that build right there is probably the most damage you can get out of a sword. And, since you're a warrior, your primary job is... guess what? TO DO DAMAGE. Now get out there and slash stuff!

Juk3n · Mar 28, 2007, 08:09 PM // 20:09

"why bring a self heal"

omg
