If you aren't gonna give the skills you are going to use, don't ask for attributes.

well i don't know if i want to be just a w/ or a w/n
by being a just a w/ i would put points into strength
but by being a w/n i would put points into blood magic

if i put points into blood magic i would most likely use life siphon and other degen spells

and if i just stayed w/ then i would use more stances and axe attacks

so which one should i go with

(sorry if im so confusing i told you i am a noob)

One, stay Warrior. Don't cast. Not that much, anyway.

Two, try not to let your health dip so low. From what I see, you're running a Superior and a Major, if not two Superiors.

Three, give us your build so we can actually help you.

I think his problem goes deeper than that - specifically, he doesn't have a build.

Now that might be a problem.

A plausible W/N build for Axe would be...

Warrior/Necromancer
Strength: 8 +1
Axe Mastery: 12 +1 +1
Tactics: 10 +1

Eviscerate {E}/Dismember (if you can't get Evis)
Executioner's Strike
Bull's Strike
Plague Touch
Frenzy
Sprint
Healing Signet
Resurrection Signet

Firstly (this is important): Do not make new threads that are unneccessary. In this thread you have asked for a W/N build, as well as one in this thread. Doing this may(I'm not sure) result in you getting banned. But this probably your first time, so I suppose you can learn from this mistake and not do this again.

Secondly: Warriors casting spells other than Rebirth, Shock, and a few precious other spells make me cry. Mending makes me depressed.

Anyway, this is what I use;

Strength: 9
Tactics: 11
Axe Mastery: 16

Eviscerate/Triple Chop
Executioners Strike
Dismember (I usually take Triple Chop so I need Deep Wound from Dismember)
Penetrating Chop
Penetrating Blow
Flurry (I'm considering getting Flail (I'm lazy and can't be bothered going to Elona), but I'm not sure about the speed penalty)
Healing Signet
Res Siggy

If you wanted to change this around for other weapons, it's not that hard. When I get Dragon Slash I'll use my sword again, but heres what I'd use;

Sun and Moon Slash
Standing Slash
Galrath Slash
Silverwing Slash
Dragon Slash
Flurry
Healing Signet
Res Siggy

If you want to make more use of your secondary profession/modify these builds for whatever reason (eg, not having all chapters), keep to this template to get a general idea of what works in most circumstances;

Elite Attack
Attack
Attack
Attack
Secondary profession skill/Utility/Attack
IAS/Secondary profession skill/Utility (IAS recommended here)
Healing Signet
Res Siggy

Keep in mind this is about PvE

EDIT: Plague Touch is an acceptable Necromancer spell for Warrior primaries.

It can, if you repeatedly commit offenses.

Marty's advice is good. However, I'd like to point out Prophecies is the best chapter IMO to start a Warrior in.

Plague Touch is a great skill (not spell, mind you) but if you have Nightfall you may want to consider a W/Mo with Mending Touch instead. It removes 2 conditions while healing you, very impressive. Monk secondary is also much more useful to a warrior in PvE than necro is.
