Default Warrior Deilema

I want to make a warrior/something, (i have a ele/mes but I want to try something new)....but im not sure what, warrior/monk is a good idea but i find it too popular and a little to easy, are their any recomended secondary proffesions for warrior besides monk that works well in PvE and PvP? And, even have the possibility of beating a warrior/monk? I'm Thinking of being a ranger too if warrior dosnt work out and curious to know if their are any ranger builds that can beat a warrior/monk in PVP as well as do all the things needed in PvE. Please reply with your knowledge of what works with personal experience or some sort of proof that it works. BTW i have read all the builds guides and what not, i know how to make a char, i jsut want to know what works

Warrior/Monk: The most popular class, this secondary works very well. Since the Warrior has many adrenaline-based skills that do not require energy, this allows him to siphon this precious resource into upkeep spells like Mending or Strength of Honor. Many of the Monk's enchantments have long durations, allowing the Warrior's puny energy to regen.
Warrior/Necro: Probably the best utility fighter as well as the best anti-W/Mo. His debufs and degen stacking works well to take down most foes, as the latter ignores armor. However, if you plan on casting a lot, N/W is the better choice.
Warrior/Elementalist: If you budget your energy well, the W/E has the best damage output in the game. Water Trident is the best chasing spell, any of the Conjures can add damage, Glyph of Lesser Energy can keep costs down for you, and there are many local AoE spells to complement your good single-target damage. Plus, you might want to try Conjure Flame > Glyph of Lesser Energy > Mark of Rodgort at least once.

The others are not recommended unless you reverse the primary/secondary profession due to energy concerns.

Thanks for your information first off.
Second I liked what you said about the wa/necro and war/ele, now it comes down to which would work better, I wanna have the ability and strength as a warrior monk, but the ability to have the upper hand, now by war/ele doing most damage, would that make up for the necro's perice through armor spells and abilities, and vise-versa. Give me your opinion

Lol I don't think you read the guys original post
He wanted to know what OTHER warroir combination is best , OTHER THAN the War/Mo......

Lol poeple really to read posts more carefully around here....



Ok that being said here is my opinion of the better War/??? combo.
I say the War/Ele is the one you should go with because the ele secondarry will have a great Damage enhancement for your warrior weapon dmg.
You add and convert all you physical dmg to any type of elemental dmg you wish , as long as you have the conjure spell to do so.

In my opinion the conjur lightning spell is the better of all 4 because it adds 10-13 lighting dmg to you attacks, as well as turns all physical dmg into Lighting dmg. The reason I like Lightning is because lightning has the inherent % To Peirce armor effect.

Well thats my 2 cents worth.

In addition to the conjure element spells to aid you in dealing damage, many elementalist spells will boost your defenses such as Armour of Earth, Armour of Frost, Armour of Mist, and Ward Against Melee will keep you from getting hit as much. Plenty of good tools in the elementalist pool for warriors. But if you are looking for skills that will always give you the upper hand they don't exist, because everything in this game can be countered given the right build. Valarian.

I'd go for the War/Nec

War/Ele is more damage.. but.. that's about it.. War/Nec can weaken about any opponent with curses so you won't need high damage, you could also go for the blood magic and just steal life and have high life regen aswel.

Now look what you've done I can't dicide between the two...anyone have personal experience to which works better in PvP war/ele or war/nec?
I'm not so worried about PvE that parts easy. I'm looking for a PvP all basicly charecter

Lets not forget the War/Me who is pretty underminded and who is quite versitile.
