A picture is worth a thousand words, in this case more exactly 25.

If you don't care about the pet, I'd go triple chop.

[skill]triple chop[/skill][skill]cyclone axe[/skill][skill]dismember[/skill][skill]disrupting chop[/skill][skill]flail[/skill][skill]rush[/skill][skill]lion's comfort[/skill][skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

Is the base, fun tweaks include adding Save Yourselves!, splinter weapon, a conjure, or anything really in the last three slots.

Disrupting chop can be swapped for another adrenal axe skill. Make sure you have a zealous axe.

Too many adrenal skills...
take out Rush for Enraging Charge
I'd take out another skill either distracting chop or cyclone axe for Counterattack ... for pve anyways

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ive been trying out this build now...

fiery shadow axe of fortitude
exalted aegis
fire=10
str=13
axe=13

frenzy
rush
eviscerate
penetrating chop
penetrating blow
executioner's strike
disrupting chop
conjure flame

wut do u think?

Penetrating Chop/Blow are never good, they just don't deal enough damage to justify thier cost. If your looking for spike dmg then Eviscerate + Executioners+Power attack would fit your build well. Toss in a res signet for if your monks go down, and if your running hench monks they will most certainly die at some point.

If you are looking for more of a DPS axe build then may I suggest this one.

[skill]"For Great Justice!"[/skill][skill]Tiger Stance[/skill][skill]Whirling Axe[/skill][skill]Dismember[/skill][skill]Executioner's Strike[/skill][skill]Conjure Flame[/skill][skill]Rush[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]

I would also suggest changing your attribute to:

Axe Mastery 14 (11 +1 head piece +2 major rune)
Strength 11 (10 +1 minor rune)
Fire Magic 10

If you're using Rush you really should consider Frenzy instead.

Big dmg in pve? try ele

And there's TChop, Cyclone Axe, Whirlwind Attack, and Deep Wound.
Plus Ancestors' Rage + Splinter Weapon for Rits to make your melee / paragons make things go AoEBOOOOOOOOOOOM...

We were talking about dmg if the memory serves. One SY, wether it is para or warrior pwnz but theres on reason to take one for dmg. I know how much you luv your precious melees tyla, you cant admit caster wins sometimes.

Casters do win. But armour-ignoring damage > armour affected damage.
SY is a bonus, Paragons already do insane damage with a Spear while keeping defensive capabilities, much like the SY Godmode Warrior, except it's more permanent on a Paragon and Godmode Warriors have a KD.

By the way, did you read the bit about Ritualists? Splinter Weapon and Ancestors' Rage are extremely powerful skills, and you'll be an idiot to say otherwise.

And Deep Wound is the strongest condition in the game apart from Daze, which only applies to PvE.

Plus it's already been proven that Warriors do the most raw DPS in the game. Taking an Elementalist (For damage) over a Ritualist with Splinter Weapon and Ancestors' Rage and melee. Along with support. Party heals, unremovable buffs, +100 armour to the party with extreme DPS...

I did, find them handy sometimes.

True, works as well as nuking things to death.

My points was that single target warrior is not the best dmg dealer in pve.

Depends per build, with a typical MM bomber and splinter warrior/barrage Nuking things to death is pretty effective (tho the minion bomber and triple chop warrior would outperform the nuker with damage).
Random AoE damage in a physical party isn't effective tho.

In context, yeah -- but Daze is better in a way because mobs are retarded and stay together even when Epidemic is used...

I'm detecting a whole lot of fail in this thread >_>

Eles are big damage-dealers in PvE.
Untill, you know, you fight Destroyers or hit hard-mode.

Necros and Melee > eles for damage.
