I just finished Prophecies and decided to move to another campaign rather then max my titles. Since I already had Nighfall, I decided to try my Warrior there a little, but it seems theres not alot of skills I can get to improve on. So I was going to get EotN since its the game everybody is playing and alot of peaple have told me that Factions sucks for PvE.
But upon a closer look, Factions has some good skills which would make me a better player. Sun and Moon would replace Hundred blades and leave room for another elite (Dragon Slash). And Save Yourself would also be a nice welcome since my Paragon would benefit from it too. But I just dont know if the game would be fun enough for thees new skills to be worth it.
I will eventually own all campaigns, but which one will benefit my Warrior the most for now ?

Faction has some of the best elite skills for warrior

dragon slash and triple chop comes to mind

not forgetting you can get the pve skills too (save yourselves)

is there a package that includes faction+eotn? i tink there is one for prop and eotn though, not sure if they have faction+eotn.

Yes, I would really get Factions, not only is it good for your warrior, its great for almost all your chars. For warrior there is....

What Kobey said, those elties are awesome, also theres quivering blade.

Also, you can beat factinos and get teh exalted Aegis, which is one of the best shields in the game...


Then, when you get Assasins, there good too for like the A/E Farmer, or if you got an ele finish teh E/A farmer. You can really spice up some combos for all professions, factions is pretty easy to beat with heroes... and teh storyline isn't all "that" bad.


With Eotn, everything or almsot everything is gonna be fun, but your gonna complete it soooo fast. I find dungeons fun, and gainning rep points. But mostly the only good armors(In teh future) in eotn is like Sliver Eagle. Factions has a few better ones. Also ab is pretty sweet for factions


I myself would jsut go with factions, then whenever you can get eotn

Good luck on your choice!

Factions=ab,good elites, more pvp focused
Eotn-armor reskins,dungeons, some good skills,more pve focus

I will eventually own all campaigns, but which one will benefit my Warrior the most for now ? Factions has some great skills and some really cool armors and weapons. That's never been the debate, and I wouldn't say one is better for PvP or PvE with this one. It's just.. the gameplay and story line and all that PvE actual playing part.. it sucks man. The expansion is just horrible gameplay wise. Some stuff visually is amazing, and some of the best locations in the game I've seen so far are in Factions areas, but.. don't get it unless you really want those skills/armors. If you're getting it to actually play it.. you're going to be very disappointed.

If you're all about PvE, no matter what, EotN is a solid win to go with. In fact, some of the unclass specific abilities can make you godlike in PvE.

Factions just happens to have the best aggro mgmt skill in the game ("Save Yourselves!").


So yeah.. it's really up to you. If they make a Factions/EotN package, I'd say go for that for sure. Otherwise.. I dunno man. Up to you ultimately.

I'd go with Factions.

The storyline isn't as bad as some people say it is. You get Dragon Slash + Save Yourselves. God Mode is a nice thing to have.

definatly Factions.
as a Warrior you get DSlash and Trip Chop as others have mentioned
you also get some nice normal skills like Fierce Blow.
also AB is a good substitute for RA as your random PvP of choice.

Well NF has heroes, they'd make going through factions much easier.

Factions is arguably the most needed campaign for a warrior. You get dragon slash and triple chop, which are the most popular/viable elites atm. You also get save yourselves, which is amazing defense. Because of that, I'd go with factions.

Well I tried PvP (Random Arena) for the first time yesterday, and I loved it. Learned the hard way to invest a slot in a condition remover, Frenzy kills me to fast and Flail is to slow for chasing, making Tiger Stance pretty mutch a must. Also Sun and Moon is more important then what I though since my best sword is Victo's Blade. So I'll be getting Factions even if the PvE sucks.

Thanks for the help.
