PvE Vigorous Chopper – W/Mo
This is a build designed to be totally self sustainable against the mobs of the world. It combines the damage dealing and adrenal building capabilities of triple chop and cyclone axe and the healing capabilities of vigorous spirit and live viraciously.

Attributes and Weapons
Axe Mastery 12+3+1
Strength 9+1
Healing Prayers 9

I recommend Wing’s Axe and Malinons Shield as your main weapon set then a non zealous axe to equip while out of battle

Skills
Triple Chop {E}
Attack target foe and adjacent foes. Each attack that hits deals +42 damage.

Cyclone Axe
Perform a spinning axe attack striking for +13 damage to all adjacent opponents.

Executioners Strike
If this attack hits, you strike for +42 damage.

Penetrating Chop
If this attack hits, you strike for +21 damage. This axe attack has 20% armor penetration.

Penetrating Blow
If this attack hits, you strike for +21 damage. This axe attack has 20% armor penetration.

Vigorous Spirit
For 30 seconds, each time target ally attacks or casts a spell, that ally is healed for 14 points.

Live Viraciously
While you maintain this Enchantment, whenever target ally hits a foe, you gain 11 Health.

Resurrect
Resurrect target party member. Target party member is returned to life with 25% Health and zero Energy.

How to use the build.
The aim of this build is to deal damage and to take the agro while keep itself alive through the use of live viraciously and vigorous spirit, to take the pressure off the monks. Ok as soon as you enter an area make sure you don’t have the zealous axe equipped and then activate live viraciously. By the time the first battle begins you should be upto max energy. As soon as you enter the battle switch to your zealous axe and rush the enemy.

Your aim is to pull the warrior enemies back towards the enemy spell casters and get them into a tight ball, once you have done this activate vigorous spirit and begin to spam triple chop and cyclone axe the zealous axe will give you faster regen than your two energy especially with the large groups giving you around 100 health and 4 energy every time more if you manage to group them well, you will also gain 25 health every time you hit with an attack. Whenever your adrenal skills are charged use them on a target to just finish them off I deliberately chose 2 low adrenal charge skills as they are better in PvE where enemies die much more quickly.

If your finding energy management a problem I would swap out live viraciously for dismember meaning more damage but less health gain. In between battles remember to take off your zealous axe as it will make you have no energy regen.




Due to people thinking that I just “steal” all my builds from guildwiki and don’t deserve any credit, this build and any others I submit are made by me and any build similar to it is just coincidence, since these complaints I have begun checking wiki before submitting builds but in the time it takes for build to appear it may come up on wiki. I am thoroughly checking both this site and wiki now before submitting guides to try and stop repeat guides coming up.




Anyway after my little rant enjoy the build!

lol i do use images sometimes if you look at my touch of agony and quick shot ranger but i cant get on GW atm :P

  hiroshima hosebang on 08/31/06 09:01

This is an interesting build, but i am pretty sure the energy based warriors endurance build on wiki does the same thing only better. also

when you are fighting mobs live vicariously supplies more than enough healing to keep you alive. i am not so sure that both enchantments is a good idea either. i have had problems with the various enchantment strippers that show up in factions. the enchantments are tough to re cast in the middle of battle without taking quite abit of damage. maybe use endure pain just to give a little protection from that possibility. good guide, but i still think someone was using the warriors endurance build as a base for this build.

  Rap Man on 08/31/06 09:19

seeing as you don't have any points in tactics wouldn't a shield with a strength requirement be better(such as the one from Nago in Wajjun Bazaar)

Nice build.

Next time I go axe on my warrior i'll try it :D

nice  elite shadow daggers on 08/31/06 14:51

great build easy to do, except maybe getting the axes im gona try it out pretty simple nice build

  Doomavatar on 08/31/06 14:53

ive used a build simmilar to this but it was with sword and hundred blades (+100hp for the spell)

energy management was a trouble but then again i didnt have a zealous sword

one thing u can do is do 16str and have defy pain
and cast live vicariously on another warrior or assassin
with a pure adrenaline build u can cast live vicariously on urself and an ally tank (if the tank is good many times the other tank droped dead in seconds and thus leaving me with less healing)

  lupennerkvein on 08/31/06 17:38

lol yeh good point rap man i should change that to merkis gaze i think is the right one :P, yeh i might try that doom but then i dont get the AoE damage from triple chop and cyclone axe that tends to be more effective than massive damage on one target in Pve

  lupennerkvein on 09/01/06 08:05

also hiroshima i looked at the endurance warrior build after you made that comment its one similarity is the skill live viraciosuly and the general idea behind it all of the skills other than LV are different and it doesnt have the AoE damage capablities and the mass healing from cyclone axe and triple chop

  UCCat on 09/01/06 10:00

good sturdy build, similar to others i have used in the past, mostly to farm... i find it very ineffective on small groups or groups that break agro for whatever reason. Works well for where it is most effective... i just find i agree with the enchantments issue found in factions and some areas of prophecies

  lupennerkvein on 09/01/06 10:37

yeh i hate factions for the reason that i can understand nerfing 55ing but the amount of enchant removal is just annoying
