War/Mo build, would this work?

Ok I have a war/mo that is only lvl. 3 but i've been doing research on how to build him and I haven't seen my build mentioned at all so I was just wondering if it would work.

Note* I don't really know how many attribute points u get anything but it looks to me like u can get 3 skills up high so i'm just gunna put those.

Swordmanship
Healing Prayers
Smiting Prayer

Swordmanship:
Sever Artery
Gash
Galrath Slash
Final Thrust

Smiting:
Strength of Honor
Balthazar Spirit

Healing:
Mend
Live Vicariously

Anyway like I said i'm only lvl 3 so if anybody with more experience could critique this I would appreciate it. Constructive criticism only please.

what role do u wanna play in the group? do u wanna do massive damage and have a healer focus on you? or would you rather go on the conservative side of being healed while you hit/being hit, but not deal as much damage. There are multiple types of builds, and it all depends on what YOU want to do as a player in GW. The basic builds (which are on under the warrior basics thread are as follows)

-----------------------------------------------

these are some decent builds. I was actually considering taking on the highdamage on for a pve char even though it says its for a PvP. But if i did was thinking of replacing final thurst with somethign else, i just couldnt think of anything at the time and i had to go to my next class, so i didnt think much on it at the time. if you were to take on the First build listed, i would have replaced the bonetti's defense with something else, but once i again i didnt have much time to find one to replace it with. The reason i wanted to replace it was b/c you cant use any other skills when you have it one, when you have BD on, you have 75% chance of blocking melle/arrow attacks sure, and you gain 5energy for everyone you block, but it ends when you use any other skill. It is a great skill, especially if you are running low on energy. And actually the more i talk bout it, the more i like it lol.

One more thing, if you want to use a skill builder to further plan your char heres a link to one. In my opinion it is easy to use and not hard to find out. Above where it lists all the skills is where you may choose your primary/secondary class and go fromthere to build you char.

Last thing, in answer to how many skill points you get, is 200 by level 20. You can get 2 skills to lvl 12 and one to 3 (without runes or hats). or you can do 12-9-9 build, or the other 12-10-8. Those are the most common that i see. But like i said, its all in the skill builder that i have listed above.

PvE or PvP?

I'm assuming PvE.

I am playing a sword W/Mo now.

All I can add is two things.

First, neglecting strength will noticably reduce your damage output, since its the warriors PRIMARY attribute.

Second, Healing is more important than smiting when not playing with a regular party with a dedicated healer. Hench healers bite.

If your making a warrior than make one, If you want to cast smite spells then be a primary monk or lose the swordsmanship. That way your basically a casting monk with the available extra armor of the warrior. BUT, don't forget that warriors do not have the energy to support mass casting.

Finally, You cannot use all those enchants simulataneously with your available energy PIPS, two at the most, with no energy regeneration.


Hope this helps.
