Thats right you better save the energy for running away when mark of pain gets too much for you.

People, please. It's starting to look like a bunch of 6-year-olds having a fight in here.

Tanks are not very good period in AB. I'm a tank myself, and most people are smart enough to walk away. Tanks require melee damage. Move out of range, and you remove the threat. When you have MMs, AoE, trappers, etc. the tank is a weak alternative.

Kudos to the build, nonethaless. For those who do get pulled into that kind of fight, it does seem effective for taking out a mob, although I wont try it out myself. I just don't have the flare for pvp.

Tried the build, in the right situation it works very well. The insults were coming thick and fast "tanking in AB u noobster" etc, but you'd be surprised how many dervish , assasin and warriors just keep on attacking you, despite them doing very little dmg and getting hurt a hell of a lot..they're almost determind not to leave me and move on for fear of feeling less of a man.

Anyway, what im trying to say is, It works, it's not the type of warrior i run with , but none the less it DOES work in the right situation.

First and foremost it's a game, if ur having fun with this build then carry on playing dude ignore the "wiki says this" elitist hate that seems to be flying around this thread.

Kudos to the OP.

Thanx for the comments, mainly ran it because of said situations were becoming all to frequent and common especially coming up against the same old stuff often. I enjoyed the change and just thought i'd share the fun, because when you do find yourself in "that" situation its very enjoyable to watch

This is an awesome build for AB. Since most people who play AB have no idea how to pvp correctly, this is perfect for owning those noobs. Who needs a real build when you have a bad one that's perfectly targeted to pwn noobs?

Whats even more fun in AB, is casting SS on a so called "tank" and watch him beat himself to death.

Anyway have fun playing. Thats what games are for!

... sums it up best. What it comes down to is that: EVEN for its intended purpose as a noob killer and MAYBE a shrine capper, there are way better builds out there for this purpose. Your build also has a ton of weaknesses too. What are you gonna do when you come up against: snares, any kine spells, doylak signet on yourself, etc?

Hey. . . if you don't like the build or think you know a better one, leave a helpful hint in a civil manner or don't post all. Being hostile doesn't make you look cool, it makes you look insecure.

Your build fails because tanking sucks.
End of.

You bought FoW to compensate for your lack of understand of the warrior class it seems...

Oh great and mighty Tan Blademaster knowing of all things such as you do.....not.

1. Dude its a fun build you havent tried it.
2. I brought FoW long before you probably goto lvl 20 - because I could.
3. Been playing warrior class since 2 days after release I understand it perfectly, in any regard whats FoW goto do with it?

RezM - thankyou for your comment

Last few months I've changed it up abit as neccessary - basically just having fun!

No, he's right.
Tanking in pvp is pathetic, tanking with D.signet is pathetic and ridiculous.
Omg, you got me to 50 life! I guess I better casually stroll out of your range.
And also, FoW armor looks like ass. Expensive ass.

Oh Dear another Troll looking to flame.
Jealousy won't get you anywhere. Expensive ass - yes on my ass, thanks.

This is an AB build there's plenty of people in a MOB!! hence title....
Control + C = Target nearest = pretty easy in a mob.
Why don't you try it first mate?
Its open to changes too... If you read the whole topic....

Listen, if you dont have anything constructive to add, I suggest you refrain from making bold statements without anything to prove to the contrary next time you post here. Whose to say you with all the wisdom you possess is right in this topic? I put a build up that I found fun, and others have come to the same conclusion as well. People suggested changes, which is great because the build can accomodate that. I'm perfectly open to constuctive criticism but your post just doesn't add anything does it? Apart from maybe showing your lack of knowledge in AB... hmm I dunno.

Amazing Avery - Defender of the Luxons - all done on this build or on a variation of it.

What he added was constructive.

He's trying to inform you that Tanking is bad.
