Profession:W/D

Name:Vow of Hammer time!

Type:General PvP

Category: Damage

Attributes:8+3 str(Helm and rune +2)---10+2 hammer(+2 rune)---rune of superior vigor---|-3 physical dmg on the last 2---|Survivor insignia on everything|Every thing else into earth prayers ^^

Skills Set:Vow of Strength{ELITE}[Dervish]
Frenzy[Warrior]
Rush[Warrior]
Dolyak Signet[Warrior]
Frenzied Defense[Warrior]
Signet of Pious Light[Dervish]
Vital Boon[Dervish]
Ressurection Signet[Well,every class can use/have :P ]

Summary:Ok.Basically what I do is before I go into battle is I cast Vital Boon on my self then Vow of strength.If it's an enemy with a weak armor class,I'd then put on frenzy.If it was another warrior or paragon,I'd put on dolyak signet and frenzied defense.Use Vital boon + signet of pious light when needed and rush,that's for getting away from a fight you can't win like 3v1 >.>

Notes & Concerns:Make sure if you're using frenzy or frenzied defense,use dolyak signet at all times.

Credit:My self and my guild friends for letting me pwn them with it (test it I mean :P )

Frenzied defense??? In PvP you will get spiked down by an elementalist faster than you can say Hello.

And nobody hits a warrior with dolyak signet. They just kite it and laugh.

In pvp, a common tactic against melee classes is snaring them with water hexes so they arn't able to hit anyone, making them almost useless. Dolyak signet in pvp is basically like putting those water hexes on yourself. You leave yourself open to casters and any other melee classes with a brain will just ignore you. Maybe it'll work in "slower" forms in pvp (such as ab), dunno

You also forgot to post your rank in Earth prayers

I have to agree with the above posters, you really want to drop dolyak signet. Any players who aren't new to the game should be smart enough to just kite away from you. Dolyak Signet may end, but it takes quite a long time to do so, and by that time the rest of your team (or at least your support) will more than likely be dead.

Seem like it, if it's not then it's a horrible build, for pve or pvp. If you're gona snare yourself like that why dont you just use flail instead of frenzy? o.O And you got no attack skill, so I dunno why you put this "Category: Damage".

This is a joke thread, isn't it? This isn't a PvP soloing build every one.It works very well with a water ele and in GvG against the guild lords and stuff.

~~~If you got any suggestions to replace dolyak signet or any other skills,please post it XD ~~~

Why bother to flame guys, just tell him where you think he is going wrong and/or offer up more useful skills, flaming isnt helping, at all.

Why take an hammer if your not using any hammer skills anyways? I would go with sword/ axe gives you extra 16 armor of a stance shield and prob -2 all the time with all the stances you use.

I think this is the worst build I've ever seen.
-You use a hammer for high damage skills and knockdown, which you don't have.
-You use running stances to get close to your target. Yet you run dolyak signet to slow yourself to a crawl, making rush useless(rush sucks by the way, sprint is about 100 times better).
-If you want extra armor and aren't using attacks, GET A SHIELD and use a different weapon.
-Frenzy is the worst IAS skill in the game. Have you ever even used this? Bonus damage ignores armor, so an assassin would do around 1000 damage a combo against this build.
-You have no condition removal. Blind>you

Finally, because your self heal depends on casting a spell, DAZE kills you.
I think that's all.

I thought this thread failed.

Vow of Strength is better with scythes than hammer TBH, with the higher scythe damage. Hammer would be good if you could use KDs, but Vow blocks that out. Go D/W with a scythe, heart of fury and rush IMO.

There's a whole post before that sentence. I just thought I'd finish in a funny note. Also, sugesting changing your PRIMARY CLASS is really, really dumb. "Ranger, your degen build doesn't work. Make a necromancer."

dump the whole build. grab a standard KD/healsig build. you can throw in rending touch if you like your dervish secondary, but there just arent enough things RIGHT with this build to try and fix it.

I think that's all. -frenzy is the best IAS in the game.

-rush and sprint. Makes no difference. It really comes down to personal preference. I prefer rush over sprint for a fast cancel stance in frenzy.

Sorry for getting here so late. =/

This thread just has too much flaming going on. And please remember that posters here aren't always master warriors in the top 10 GvG teams... so what multi killer said... give advice, dont just flame.
