Talent biuld for warrior

Quin · Post by **Quin** » May 31st, 2005, 8:14 am

I've started a warrior and was checking out the talents/skills, took me a while to come up with this one but i rekon it looks like a nice pvp biuld.

Fury Mastery
Rank 5 Cruelty
Rank 5 Improved Demoralizing Shout
Rank 1 Piercing Howl
Rank 4 Improved Battle Shout
Rank 5 Enrage
Fury Total: 20

Arms Mastery
Rank 1 Improved Heroic Strike
Rank 5 Deflection
Rank 3 Improved Rend
Rank 2 Improved Charge
Rank 5 Tactical Mastery
Rank 2 Improved Overpower
Rank 1 Anger Management
Rank 3 Deep Wounds
Rank 2 Impale
Rank 5 Axe Specialization
Rank 1 Sweeping Strikes
Rank 1 Mortal Strike
Arms Total: 31

I wasnt to sure on Enrage, coz the idea of wanting to be crit'd sounds retarded...but it was too damn good to reject.

Not sure if my warrior will even get 60, but researching and trying other classes will only make me better with locks...cant hurt.

The new patch is going to have some serious changes to the Fury tree that you might want to look at for a PVP build.

Take Blood Craze =D

I'm really not sure how good blood craze is, since warriors tend to have some of the lowest spirit values of any characters.

I think the Dual Wield spec would be fun for PVP. Generate lots of rage fast, swingin like a madman. Sounds like fun to me :)

Well, I sincerely hope you don't plan on using Heroic Strike past level 40 or so. So that is a waste of a talent point. In the patch notes they mentioned that they are changing Blood Craze to: "warrior regens 1% / 2% / 3% of his maximum hp over 6 seconds" per rank. So, when I respecced to Axe Mastery, I took this over Improved Battle Shout. Assuming you have around 5k hp, this comes out to a 25 hp / sec regen over 6 seconds which would be on almost full-time against mages, rogues, hunters, and warriors.

On the topic of Enrage, don't get it if you wanna SUCK. Enrage is far and away our second best talent (maybe third behind Tactical Mastery). Again, against rogues, mages, hunters, and warriors, you are fighting with a 40% increase in damage almost full-time.

Here's my build for Arcanite Reaper:
Arms (31 points)
Deflection 5/5
Improved Rend 3/3
Improved Charge 1/2
Tactical Mastery 5/5
Improved Overpower 2/2
Anger Management 1/1
Deep Wounds 3/3
Impale 2/2
Axe Specialization 5/5
Sweeping Strikes 1/1
Improved Hamstring 2/2
Mortal Strike 1/1

Fury (20 points)
Cruelty 5/5
Improved Demoralizing Shout 5/5
Piercing Howl 1/1
Blood Craze 3/3
Improved Battle Shout 1/5
Enrage 5/5

Ah ok, I'll probably switch over the battle shout points then.

What about improved charge though? Warriors use charge 24/7 and the extra rage would mean u could instantly perform most attacks.

I'll have to make myself a reaper :)

I use the exact same build as Tyraff, however I go 2/2 Charge and 1/2 Hamstring. My run speed boot enchant seems to compensate for the loss of 5% snare, and I use piercing howl if I really need a 50% snare.
