Well, currently I'm level 8 W/Mo and this is my main guy for PvP at ascalon.

I was wondering some ways of inproving this build but please keep in mind I ONLY HAVE PROPHECIES.

"For Great Justice"
Bonetti's Defence
Power Attack
Dismember
"I Will Avenge You"
Healing Breeze
Resurrection Signet

2 Healing
2 Tactics
2 Strength
7 Axe Mastery

I'm wielding a Battle Axe (6-25 dmg r.7) and a Crude Shield (9 armor r.3 tactics)

My strategy is to cast HB and For Great Justice and then if I am getting attacked I cast BD and spam Power Attack from blocked attacks, if not just Dismember and spam Executioner's strike with the occasional Power Attack. It seems to be a decent tank build but sometimes it just doesn't cut it.

Some bad things I've noticed about this build:

- Lack of healing if I can't get BD up in time, with only 5 pips of health regen. Especially if I get life siphon or degens like that and then spammed.
- Some times I can't deal enough damage.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

well leveling up would be ideal so healing breeze can have 7 little pips

also, (might be just me) i think that mending would be good for a warrior because it can provide small extra healing combined with healing breeze its good, and warriors don't need as much energy to do skills

as for hitting harder...pump some iron

You cannot use elites in the Ascalon Arena, so whats the point of suggesting a build that nearly relies on its elite?

Tbh, i'd just get max AL, and swap Power Attack for Executioner's Strike, and Bonneti's Defence/IWAY for Enraging Charge/Flail.

Also, if you get better/max equipment (especially armor) you don't need to worry about damage... you'll barely be hit for anything.

First off, thanks for realizing that this is Ascalon Arena, but I only have prophicies, so I can't get flail, but I do have flurry but it's not much use. I have the LA wyrven armor but I want max. I was thinking about getting bull's strike instead of power attack.

You won't be able to get Enraging either, in that case.

Hmm...

In that case, i'd suggest Frenzy + Rush. With max AL, i'd expect you to take, maximum, 10-15 damage. With HB on you, it should be healed. Rush can be a cancel stance for when things get sticky.

I hope this helps.

You want
1,attack2,attack3,attack4,heal Sig.5,Frenzy6,Sprint,7FGJ8,Res Sig.

Put most points in axe then tactics and finally strength this if you are using any strength based skill to attack with.I forget how many attributes a lvl 8 has.You want to use mostly adrenal attack skills as well.Don't worry about your armour .

Use Sprint to cancel frenzy.

^Don't forget Rush is Proph^

But seriously, /Mo has next to nothing to offer for a warrior - stick with your primary!

He will have buy it and it best to save his skill points for signet of capture and other skills.It is best to avoid buying skills in Prophecies as you get them as quest rewards.

He is W/Mo and can't change his profession untill he ascends and use sprint as I said avoid buying skills.You only have 6 or 7 skill points left as you bought healing breeze a skill you did not need.

He can't use shock.This is not Random Arenas.

yes, but you're not tanking. You're doing damage. Heal sig is fine. The above posted builds are just modified shock axes, which work fine. Read through some older pvp posts if you want a more in-depth discussion of the build.

That's what Rush is for. Use it to cancel Frenzy then use Heal Sig, heck you can even run away from them to get space before using it. Just make sure you cancel Frenzy before using Heal Sig.

You can if you can buy it in Ascalon but being a W/Mo you can't.You don't need Rush as it is not available unless you have it unlocked on your account and I would save up the skill points anyway.You use frenzy against spell castors not on other Warriors or Rangers.The only place you can buy Rush is Copperhammer Mines or Droknar's maybe as well as Camp Rankor.When doing any sort of PvPing you aren't a Tank you are a Warrior.This is not the big leagues by the way and to rest remember that this is lvl8 Warrior.

To the OP: Sure they might not notice you can't change your profession, but people are just trying to help. Don't flame them for it.

Instead of shock, have something like frenzy+sprint+rush. That way if rush isn't built you always have sprint to cancel. Then add on a rez sig, heal sig, and 3 attack skills (evis, exe, bulls strike) and you're good to go.

Or take out sprint for dchop.

This will teach him to be a bad Wammo when he get his templar armour like most Warriors that take run to Droks early on.That must be some good Derv being lvl 13 or I would be doing the Run as most Dervs are lvl 20 as well as Warrior Runners.

This is bad habit for new Warriors and nothing wrong with his armour.
