just add Radiant Insignias to ur armor. they add energy depending on where you place it like the chest gives 3 energy, 2 energy on legs and 1 energy on everything else

Warrior with energy issues?! Dare I ask what your skill bar looks like?

You fix it by stop running a terrible bar.

Just like I constantly whine about in the elementalist threads, higher max energy does not equal energy management. if you're running out of energy on a warrior, you are probably running way too many energy skills *coughcoughhealingbreeze*

Yeah, I have issues with energy too when I maintain mending on myself and try to cast healing breeze. It bugs me.

I pray to God that you are joking.
Anywho, if you find energy is a problem, Change your build. Whenever I run a warrior build, I use at the most 2 skills that require energy; focus on adren skills.

If your constantly running out of energy I would, as everyone has said, drop some of the energy skills and use radiant insignias on your armor(with radiant runes on all your armor you end up with 28 energy). Or you could get a zealous weapon. or a +5 energy inscription instead of a 15^whatever
I ususally run a 15 or 16 weapons mastery with high points in Strength, which enables me to take Power Attack, since its 5 energy and recharges in 3 secons you can spam it without hurting your adrenaline pool. Spamming it alot can run down your energy so I keep a zealous weapon with me to switch too if my energy happens to get low.
Some people will call me a noob cause I use power attack, but I think +36 dmg for only 5 e and a 3 sec recharge is pretty cool, but the enemies laying at my feet think it sucks.

Do not use Radiant insignias, consider using more adrenaline skills, remember not to use Radiant insignias, invest in a zealous weapon to swap to, stay clear of Radiant insignias.
Also it's best to not use Radiant insignias, warriors have adrenaline skills for a reason.

You need to stop [skill]Echo[/skill]ing them, works well for me

To the OP:
I mainly use armor with all Radiant Insignias, along with the normal warrior runes (vigor, absorption, and whatever weapon rune you choose to use).
Advice; as a warrior, you don't want to run an energy intensive bar. I try to saty away from having a bar that would have energy skills of more than 10-15 (and if you bring a skill that needs 15 energy, that better be the only energy hog in your bar.) Make sure you have at least a few adrenaline skills in there, or a skill that helps you gain adrenaline quickly.
What's your secondary profession?

As eveyone else seid, Use adren skills. They are there for a reason

My warrior uses the following build, and has 480 HP (Which is the same as the base hP for level 20), and 38/40 energy (can't remember the right amount, lol)
I have all radiant insignias, and 3 attunment runes on my armour, though I couldn't find a fellblade with energy +5 within my price range. Ahh well maybe someday.
It's a good build so long as you have a monk, due to lack of decent self healing. This works well in protecting casters by crippling melee fighters that run to the back to attack monks and other casters with weak armour.
Also serves well for interupting those annoying skills you'll come across now and then if timed right, and then the 2 damaging only skills that can't be blocked (I'm aware those are the same skill, but I was limited on low cost energy sword attacks, lol.)
So after you've spammed those 4 attacks, you press what I like to call "Do it all over again" button, which recharges the skills and fills my energy bar to the top again. The 3 last skills are optional to a certain point. endure pain is good for making up HP due to the low normal amount my warrior has, boosting it to 780 instead of 480. Lions comfort can be quite good if the healers are having trouble keeping up with everyone, and spirnt to get around faster, or move to targets faster if you want.
with the rank 3 in tactics I get 95HP from Lions comfort, which isn't too bad, but wont support me. self healing could be better with "For great justice"

No, I said the last 3 are optional. If they want a rez then by all means bring one. The base of the build is floursh with energy skills, you can change whatever else.
And from tips in another thread I'm going to to mix the skills up a bit to see which works best and ect. Like IAS and such. My monks have Renew life, so even if they both stop healing/protecting to rez mid battle, any team members in range are healed for over 100 anyway. So in alot of ways it's best I don't carry a rez.

Never done it. What's wrong with my build in your opinion? The problem with your build is that it doesn't compare to the usual standard optimized builds. Sure, it might work, but pretty much everything works.

So in other words, because I don't use adrenaline skills and such like all the other good warriors can I should change the build because it's classed as bad?

Cripple is hardly ever worth it in PvE
Endure pain just horrible, heal sig is much better
Flourish
You have more in strength than swordsmanship
where is the deep wound?

Cripple does have it's uses. I don't claim by build perfect, I know it's not the best out there but I don't want some copied build off wiki, I enjoyed making my own. I'm not the main damage dealer in my party. I normally have a nuker or two, and my job is to protect them from melee warriors and such while they set everything around us on fire, lol.
Healing sig does heal very well but that would require I use more tactics, which I don't like as much. So endure pain it is until I work up the adrenaline to help heal myself a hundred or two.
Flourish is a good skill. I know this because It works with the build very well and gives me the ability to spam all my attacks on another enemy with no downtime. It's a skill that rechanges all skills and gives me energy to use them again, you tell me the downside to that.
Deep wound I realise I don't have, however like I said, I'm still messing about with the 3 last skills and I'm not the main damage dealer as it is.
I run a different role in my team. If I was trying to be a major damage dealer and be able to solo well then this would be a slap-in-the-face fail. It's just a good job I'm not doing that at all, lol.

The problem people are having with it is not that its radically different and therefore scares them, the problem is that there's better options for everything it tries to do. Its DPS is easily outclassed by Dragon Slash spam, and its not particularly good to tank with either. All of the energy-based attack skills (save for Savage Slash, possibly) hit for less damage and have less utility than comparable adrenaline skills, and that makes Flourish a dodgy elite skill. The fact that its linked to an equally dodgy attribute doesn't help it much.
But if you like using it, by all means do so. I wouldn't want to take it into PvP, personally.. but in PvE, who cares?

Yeah, My warrior woudln't stand a chance in PvP. But anyway, the build works and I do enjoy it, yupyup. lol

i'm very happy to hear that. However if you had made an attempt at reading what I said you would know that damage output isn't my goal, I have nukers for that.
wetsparks
Warriors are "meant" to be DPS machines, so damage out put should be your goal, that is why ANet nerfed the warrior stances.
Malchior
You're right. What was I thinking? lol
clearly anyone who doesn't use a warrior to do as much damage as possible is in the wrong. Also runners to, since they were meant to fight not run! woe is me.

Warriors used to have the highest DPS in the game before prophecies and nightfall. Now they have assassins and dervishes to contend with, but the fact remains that warrior DPS is second to none.
Now if you chose to utilize that I guess is your decision.
If you come on here and post your build though, don't expect everyone to wow over it if you can't put out some big numbers.
Flourish doesn't do that.
Battle Rage doesn't either.
There are plenty of warrior builds that can deal damage and have utility on the same bar. You don't need to run a crap elite like Flourish to accomplish said goal.

The OP may have wanted info on his heros as well if they are castors use the hero forum.
Like most said use adrenaline not energy based attacks.Malchior you are thinking to much like a Sin.

But, as I told you before, play what you want if you like it.

Thank you though. Ps, No flourish isn't a crap elite, you only think it is simply because you don't agree with it. blue.rellik
If Flourish isn't crap then Eviscerate, Dragon Slash, Steady Stance, Backbreaker, Devastating Hammer, Cleave and Crippling Slash and most importantly Echo are far too strong to be used.
