I am after some help regarding my current weapons and a suitable build for my tank. Here are the weapons I was lucky to find from chests in the Dungeon. I'm after armour penetration build if possible to match my axe stats.
Here are my weapons - what build is suitable?

When you say 'tank', do you mean actual tanking or just a Warrior in general? Tanking sucks and is a waste of time in most (i.e, 98%+) of PvE.
An armor penetration build... thing with this is that not all forms of AP stack, so you'll be limited in what you can take. I wouldn't take the concept too far, but you could try:
Str 13
Axe 16
[card]Eviscerate[/card][card]Executioner's Strike[/card][card]Agonizing Chop[/card][card]Penetrating Chop[/card][card]"For Great Justice!"[/card][card]Flail[/card][card]Lion's Comfort[/card][card]Rebirth[/card]
As I said, you don't want to go overboard with the AP stuff, because it doesn't all stack. The build is similar to yours, because yours is decent already and you don't need to fix what isn't broken.

If you're going to change your weapons around, I wouldn't bother too much with the build I posted earlier, because I was giving you a 'sundering' themed build, which you seem to no longer want.
Anyway, with your original build, just drop HS for "WY!" and find something decent to replace "SU!" with.
If you're wondering why -5/20% is inferior to -2/stance, think about it this way: -5/20% triggers once in 5 hits, so essentially thats an average of -1 on every hit. -2/stance (which is basically -2/100% with Flail) gives you -2 on every hit. That makes it twice as effective.

It doesn't.

You generally don't run into problems with the stacking, or you don't care. The only things that don't stack with each other on warriors are Strength, Penetrating Chop/Blow, and Primal Rage.

Generally warriors don't change weapons for builds.

What is Warpy going to do with a req 11 Gloom Shield then? @Warpy: You really should have at least two axes, elemental (either Fiery or Shocking for PvE) and physical (Vampiric or Sundering, the difference is minor). Shield inscription should be -2 while in a stance or +10 vs a damage type, or have multiple shields with everything. In the long run I don't see a huge problem with -5 20% though. |
