Hi there, I'm Zach and this is my first guide, so bear with me :). This build is a W/Mo Axe Adrenaline Spike, it deals major damage and if you watch your health, keeps you alive. Anywho, lets get to the skills and such, shall we?

Skills:
1.Eviscerate
2.Axe Twist
3.Executioner's Strike
4.Cyclone Axe
5."To The Limit!"
6.Bonnetti's Deffense
7.Healing Signet
8.Rebirth



Attributes:
Axe Mastery:13(12+1)
Tactics:14(12+1+1)
Strength:4(3+1)

Equipment:A tactics helm is a must, and for armor i use Gladiator's because of the energy. I use a Victo's Battle Axe and an Exalted Aegis(You don't need these specific weapons and shield). For runes i have a Minor Vigor, Minor Tactics, Minor Axe, and a Minor Strength

Ok,once you get into battle, use To The Limit and Cyclone Axe to gain adrenaline. Once all your adrenaline skills are pumped up, unleash the combo: Eviscerate, Axe Twist, Executioner's Strike, and Cyclone Axe. This deals major damage, and inflicts a Deep Wound and Weakness on to your enemy. Now, you can change Axe Twist with Axe Rake. I use Axe Twist because it inflicts Weakness, so the enemy cant hita s hard onto you. Obviously, use Bonnetti's for energy and deffense when you need it. Well, I hope this helps, and hope it works for anyone who trys it.

It's a good build. I would suggest getting yourself a Sup/Major Vigor, Sup Absorption, and Sup Tactics. Then put the Tactics on your tactic helm. And then boost Strength up a bit.

Superior Absorption is so cheap now, and if you can't afford Sup Vigor, then get Major.

Another suggestion would be to remove To The Limit! and replace it with For Great Justice!. Then you can take tactics down to 7-9 and boost your damage even more by bringing Strength and Axe up.

I just kinda feel that you're boosting Tactics too much for only 2 skills. If you really want damage, then Strength and Axe should be above Tactics.

  FareHangora on 07/02/06 15:13

bonnetti's isn't in the picture lol.

I'd take out axe rake/twist and replace it with penetrating blow, because henchies hardly run away, so rake isnt that important. Twist isn't too important against monks or ritualists so just doing the damage from penetrating blow should do the job. Using that 4 attack combo should just about kill them unless deep wound is removed.

Constructive Criticism   van halen on 07/02/06 15:34

Nice build but I would add another skill to increase your attack speed. Preferably Frenzy. And your strength should always be at least 9 if you want to cause any real damage. Do you use the Exalted Aegis which requires Tactics? Because if you do, than I use the Exact same weapons as you.

  mrguildboi on 07/02/06 15:49

or if you join an alliance battle/fort aspenwood you can replace rebirth with Penetrating Chop/Blow

Frenzy ftw lol
Frenzy sux.
most useless skill award.
Better yet how about make sure to use frenzy before heal sig, also remove helm to cast it. . .. . .

Frenzy is the best way to increase attack speed as long as you have a cover stance...

Also, i wouldnt use rebirth as a warrior. Try restore life if its post battle rezzing or maybe vengeance since you dont want to warp a caster into melee combat.

  Genesis_Dragon on 07/03/06 03:09

For some reason Frenzy gets laughed at, but it is an extremely powerful skill. Obviously if you're taking damage it's not the wisest move and as Megido said, having a covering Stance to cancel it is wise, but during PvP for instance, how many times have you heard people say "Go for the Warrior!"? I'm sure you haven't.
The opposing team will be focusing on taking down the Monks, and even if you do go against a group that for some reason decides the Warrior is their primary target, then you'll have Monks who are free to easily cope with any damage you'll take.

It's the same as any skill, there are times when you shouldn't use it. You wouldn't use Dolyak Signet when chasing someone, you wouldn't use any skill you need while Hexed with Diversion, same as you wouldn't use Physical Resistance if you were being attacked by an Ele.

Frenzy+healsig FTW :D

Its so funny while playing air ele i see a war using frenzy, spike them, they use healsig, spike them again and they take 300 dmg and die.

And for pve, i saw a frenzyhealsig in my team in the elite kurzick mission and guess what, he died in 2 seconds in each group of mobs before having his frenzy noticed by a teammate and being laughed at by the group.

I agree.

This build is a W/Mo Axe Adrenaline Spike


This isnt a Adrenaline spike, Adrenaline spikes are preformed with all high damage spells, so i suggest you take Axe twist out and replace it with Axe Rake (for the cripple), and taking rebirth out for ress sig. I am talking about PVP, because you dont do Adrenaline spikes in PVE...

And I hope I'll never play with someone with rebirth in PVP.. Most useless skill ever (in PVP) dont expect happy faces when you are using rebirth.

Frenzy is a crappy skill unless unless you have a stance to cancel it, you know what I'll just post my own build on later...

  Soul Flame Monkey on 07/03/06 05:52

I like to correct myself on a few things, I typed unless double.

More things why it's not a Adrenaline spike.

1.Eviscerate = good
2.Axe Twist = replace with Axe Rake
3.Executioner's Strike = good
4.Cyclone Axe = crap, its a area skill. If you start a spike target will run
5."To The Limit!" = Only if you have a boon prot, replace Frenzy
6.Bonnetti's Deffense = why, Adrenaline... replace Rush
7.Healing Signet = Gank party's and AB only
8.Rebirth = as I said, w00t

I suggest you review your build, you are telling its an Adrenaline spike but you have defensive skills, rush is only in to cancel frenzy.

And for the people who say Frenzy sucks, learn to use it please. All GVG battles I've seen and played there where people with Frenzy.

Agreed  van halen on 07/03/06 06:21

100% agreed.
Infact if you don't know how to use frenzy, than don't expect yourself to win many rounds in PvP areas with a warrior.

  CaptainBobby on 07/03/06 11:37

Frenzy is so bad for a warrior. Thanks to fast casting I was able to cast clumsiness and ineptitude on a warrior that used frenzy. He killed him self in 1 second. (Ineptitude 300dmg + Clumsiness 200dmg) = Dead Warrior

  Duke Terrien on 07/03/06 16:43

Frenzy is the best for GvG, in all the high-rated GvG battles you see, EVERY warrior brings frenzy rather than any other attack speed boosting stance.

  The Zach Attack on 07/03/06 21:48

For the peeps saying stuff about bringing res sig, this is for pve :p
and, yes, it works good as a solo adrenaline spike

  deadjack on 07/03/06 23:31

frenzy is a very good skill when you know when use it
but it can be very dangerous if you don't
if you want to learn how to play it I suggest you to check high ranked GvG game

also if this build is not for pve you shouldn't got rebirth

  The Zach Attack on 07/04/06 02:14

it is for pve
thats why rebirth is there :p
oh, and Frenzy can be good

  Leekz on 07/04/06 04:59

ECHO FRENZY FTW!

  wolfblade on 07/04/06 06:27

if its for pve healsig will just kill you

  Soul Flame Monkey on 07/05/06 05:30

QUOTE
He killed him self in 1 second

It will cost me 0,1 second to cancel any attack, and I can cancel Frenzy in a other 0,1 sec.

Sry to put your guide down :/



  The Zach Attack on 07/05/06 05:49

Wolf Blade, how does Heal Sig kill you?
its like the coolest skill ever! :D
I really dont see how itd kill me, it does a good job at keeping me alive, but whatever. thanks for the advice guys!

  Corruplt Intrept on 07/05/06 10:02

heal sig -40armor(makes you weaker)

Nice build, bonetii's would be useless, since you have no nrg skills. yea, twist is good for 1 on 1 warrior, but get rake since its PvP and most of the time you'll be going after spellcasters. a favoured stance for defense can be the shield stance,defensive stance erm... /Mo for rebirth? hellll no... take a res sig for TA or RA. AvA doesnt require a res, replace it with a penetration blow

ok... strength is really too little... you'll have trouble dealing HUGE dmg. make tatics 8~10 then dump rest in str.

  The Zach Attack on 07/05/06 16:45

Aaaaaaaaaaarg
its a PvE build
i guess i shouldve put that

And it does plenty of damage with the low strength :)

  Corruplt Intrept on 07/06/06 08:52

Really? erm... if you fight titans level wont you be dealing only 6-10 with normal attacks?

but thats what Bonnetti's Deffense is for duhhh

  Feanor Turgon on 07/16/06 06:22

Instead of Frenzy possibly it may be better to use Tiger Stance(Factions). This attack booster stance doesnt make u take double damage and best yet you attack 33% faster with no dow sides to it.
