This is not sabway/discordway, or anyway that will be extremely easy. I just wanted to play around with my war and see If I can do some perma KD . Didn't wanna post this in warrior forum since It uses hero's also.

build usage. FOR FUNZIES

Not tested yet due to internet problems (can't stay connected long enough here) but I wonder if it would work.

Optional Hero
Orders dervish/prot monk/heal monk/Curses Necro/etc etc

The Idea is to give me sooooo much adrenaline gain its almost impossible to NOT knock down foes constantly, therefor reducing amount of healing needed. Won't work in Soothing images/ancestors-sympathetic visage/soothing areas without proper counters.

Bah I wish Skill codes worked.

Decent but too many heroes devoted to perma earth shaker. Losing a lot of damage potential by devoting them all to support for 1 physical pretty much.

Could probably just put balthazars spirit on the hammer war for extra adrenaline gain.

You definitely need crude swing (take out yeti smash and/or lion's comfort), also don't bother running 14 strength on this.

ES with a healer and two searing flames eles.

I like to use 11 strength 12 hammer 10 tactics, to spam +20 armor for everybody, while still being able to charge in one hit.

Earthshaker --> Crude swing --> Earthshaker --> Whirlwind attack --> Earthshaker

No point to playing this unless you have both crude swing and whirlwind, the point is NOT the aoe damage, it's the huge adrenaline bonus.

"Flame Shield On!"

Too many anthems on the Para, you're gimping his andrenalin gain and his DPS. Decide which one you want to go with, flame or weariness. I would also replace Signet of Return with "We Shall Return!" since signet of return has a hefty casting time it's likely that the party member was already resurrected.

I also don't like Rejuvenation because it also heals party members that don't need the healing, thus killing itself over nothing and wasting the healing. Moreover, why not replace the Res Signet with a hard res, like Death Pact Signet or Flesh of My Flesh. If you don't need the extra adrenaline I would replace Anthem of Fury with Emphatic Removal for extra support, this way you can take the third hero as an Order Bitch instead of a monk.

For the extra hero slot I would probably take an Order Bitch. It will increase your DPS and adrenaline gain which it's the main issue for your heroes.

Nice thought, could be really fun to run it with a another warrior/paragon friend.
