I have usually played as a monk with discord and SoS heroes. I am trying to branch out and try a warrior, paragon, and rit. I am going to try a warrior first. What are your favorite hero setups to use with a warrior?

Any melee team setup.

1. Rt/Mo

12+1+1 Channel
10/12 Smiting
8/3 Spawn

SoS, Bloodsong, Siphon, Splinter Weapon, judges insight, strength of honor, flesh of flesh, ancestor's rage

2. Curser

12+1+1 curse.
Optional other slot

Barbs, mark of pain, enchant strip, enfeebling blood

3. Blood tease

Tease, power drain, blood ritual, order of pain, blood renewal, remove enchant, leech sig/cry of frustration, optional.


My setup is based on buffing you, the damage dealer to have as much armor ignoring damage as possible. This is best used with a scythe or hundred blades, but any weapon works great.

N/Mo

I used to run sabway for the most part. I've tinkered with 2 spear chuckers and one curses(mop/barbs) necro. Also, seldom 2 roj monks and 1 roj ele. A handfull of other little builds that never really sparked me too much.

The one I put together and have stuck with is my Mesmer heavy.

One Tease/14 Dom Tease, Pspike, Cry, Empathy, Shame, Guilt, Death pact .....last slot varies from hex removal to mantras.

One Shared Burden/15 lusion. Sh. Burden, Images, Conjure Ph, Sig of clumsiness, Pdrain, Leech sig, Res sig. ...last slot varies as above.

One Sos Rit/15 Channeling Bar varies on this

a. SOS, Dest, Agony, Bloodsong, Ancestors, Boon of Creation, Death pact....last slot varies from Cant touch this to whatever is needed in a zone.

b. SoS, Dest, Agony, Bloodsong, Life, Prot Was Kaoli, 2 heals.
This bar varies depending on how many allies in your group. The less (4 or 6), the more heals I utilize.

When I first put these together, my first thought was synergy. Second thought was...Do I have enough damage?

I was pleasantly surprised with both ending up better than what I figured.

Use your heroes to make your warrior a 'SUPER WARRIOR'. Bring skills:

1. Ebon Battle Strength of Honor (once you do EOTN)
2. Strength of Honor (on your smiting nec or mo hero)
3. 100blades or scythe based (both are excellent, but 100b works better w/nec support).
4. Mark of Pain (+ fail on target = immense spike)
5. Save Yourselves (use for HM, not worth pve slot in NM). In NM, get something else.
6. Go for the Eyes Para-commando (or) orders derv, or combine the two into one Necro-commando build.

So:
(a) 1 N/Mo MM hero w/SoH (micromanage SOH)
(b) 1 SS/LC/orders Necro w/GFTE (auto)
(c) HM: 1 ER Prot hero
(c) NM: 1 spirit spammer w/splinter for making gameplay comedic.

As a super war, each of your hit should do 60-80 without skills! With skills, expect huge spikes....and w/scythe prepare to see 100-300 dmg per hit even in HM...oh so fun

Finally:
(a) Stay away from defy pain elite or tactics based builds (unless you are farming)
(b) Be aggressive as hell - rush into battle to slaughter enemies. Show NO mercy...lol

On my warrior i like to play around as he is my "main".
Depends where you are also.
Well 3 necros is the general way to go (or a rit)
Spirits are UBER awsome atm so SoS is nearly a must (hay run that on your bar if you want xD).
I generally run a N/Rt sabway healer with SoS and splinter wep.
Resto at 12, SR at 8 and Channel at 10

An MM is usually nice for a meat shield, not needed but are nice and useful for a full necro team.
Discord, jagged bones or AoTL are best elites for this guy. Run a few prots or SoH or More spirits on this guy for more pwnage.

And then you have a utility slot. Depends what you want. Curses, rupter, heal, AoE, more spirits

Tbh just play around and have fun with your warrior. If your rolling everything but not having fun change, the name of the game is to have fun not win with AP and YMLaD.

iunno. sometimes i'll run some roj monks and earthshaker. its kinda fun.

or 3x sf eles with fall back when i feel like goin boom boom and zoom zoom

or bring a scythe with asuran scan, mm with strength of honor/judge's insight on me, cause big numbers make me happy in the pantaloon.

sometimes i'll even run primal rage w/e with an sh ele, barrage ranger, and woh monk just to feel old school. and to giggle like a school girl cause bull's striking in pve is surprisingly satisfying.

or when i feel like playing as i did as a little noob 4 years ago i'll go w/mo mending, or even better, w/n with consume corpse and bone minions. all henchmen ofc no heroes required.

if it's something semi-challenging i'll just do dslash with discord for a quick, boring slaughter. i try to avoid doing this at all costs, pve is boring enough, i like to at least have a little fun with what i'm runnin.
