I'd still use +5 armor on warriors over 30 life. I only use 1 superior so my life is fine and no one is going to spike me with a bunch of ignore armor attacks. But I use a 20% axe mastery anyone because neither of them are worth it IMO. Then again 1 axe master 20% of the time kinda blows too.

Damn useless grips....

The +30 is unimportant until the end.

Say two people have 500 base health. One has a 30 health upgrade, the other has no upgrade. If both players take 499 damage before they kill the other player. The health upgrade played no role because both players were able to kill their opponents regardless of the health upgrade. Yes, the player with the health upgrade still has 31 health, but as you can see, the health doesn't start to help until you are at that low of HP.

Once again, there are forms of damage that ignore armor, but 30 more health is not significant enough to save yourself ALMOST all of the time. I would rather have an upgrade that is constantly working to prevent any damage that doesn't ignore armor.

Since im a Mo/w with 11/12 axe mastery and 13 heal prayers and 7 tactics, i always get hit by warriors, so i use +5 armor upgr and a 16armor Aegis with +7 armor vs sword&axe attacks so it additionally gives me 12 armor vs physical and +5 vs all what is quite usefull

There have been PLENTY of fights where my poison or disease or bleeding has stopped when my hp was between 1 and 50. PLENTY. If I didn't use a +hp bonus shield/focus and a +hp bonus weapon, I would have died on many of those occasions. I'm a warrior, by the way, and never a Warrior/Monk or Warrior/Ranger with access to strong regen healing.

It probably depends on your build, play style, and opponents, but I'd say that either take 7 warding against pesky elementalists (slashing damage from other warriors is nothing for a warrior to really bother "equipping" against) or take the +30 hp upgrades. Oh, and don't forget that +30 hp might not be a lot, but a shield that gives you +45 AND a +30 sword is 75 hp, which is a superior rune right there (or 15% DP, or a strong damage skill, whatever).

As a warrior, I definitely prefer the HP. Now, whether I prefer a 20% enchanting over both, that's a different issue altogether ^_^.
