Drop Sup Strength. Sup Axe is also questionable.

I like Evis more than Magehunter...

Signet of Strength =/= good. Neither does Conjure Lightning.

No self healing? RA? Healing Signet plz.

I get out ~7 attacks in 5 seconds.
Signet of Strength and Conjure Lightning add a total of 18 damage each hit.
That's +126 damage in 5 seconds, and it keeps going.
Add that to deep wound, +34 from Magehunter Strike, +31 from Critical Chop.
Then add my base damage and crits at 16 Axe Mastery.
I'm not a number cruncher, but here's my best shot.
~41 base damage per hit, 5 hits = 290. 290+126+34+31 = 481+deep wound, in 5 seconds.

I'm fairly certain he does know what you're going for. And his suggestions are all very valid. While you are a pretty good spike/dps machine, you're limited to doing only that. That makes this a poor warrior build regardless of how much damage you do.

Also, I would opt for eviscerate and put protectors strike in instead of mage hunters.

wuts this build for again, u hav absolutely no tactics, its all dmg. correct me if im wrong but n pvp u must have a way to defend urself, thts why warriors can not only deal dmg but also defend. wut u gunna do about blindness? then wut, its ok to have big dmg but also balance it out with at least alittle defense. look in the tactics area of skills listed for warriors, u'll find plenty of def, u may keep ur little combo but at least throw n sum def.

Frequently the only defense a Warrior has is Healing Signet. A Warrior doesn't need much other defense (perhaps Sprint can be involved, but run skills are also used for catching up to kiting foes).

If a warrior isn't dealing as much damage as he possibly can, he sucks. Taking up 1/8 or 1/4 of your bar on self defense means you suck at warrior. Some exceptions are made, but that's simply for gankers in gvg.

yeah, and you're gimping your bar by running it.

Not that I don't think people shouldn't run heal sig.

But then, times may have changed.
