I searched most of the pages since the search is disabled. Didn't find anything about IWAY w/r. I can't get in any groups. Hence I have no rank. I need to get into groups to get rank. So my only alternative is IWAY. I'm not looking for this to be a discussion and/or flame war between anybody in any way shape or form. If someone would be so kind as to list skills and attributes for IWAY w/r, I would be very pleased.

This is pretty standard:


IWAY Warrior

Warrior/Ranger

Strength: 10 (9+1)
Axe Mastery: 16 (12+4)
Beast Mastery: 9

- Resurrection Signet ()
- "I Will Avenge You!" (Strength)
- Tiger's Fury (Beast Mastery)
- Eviscerate [Elite] (Axe Mastery)
- Executioner's Strike (Axe Mastery)
- Axe Rake (Axe Mastery)
- Disrupting Chop (Axe Mastery) (Or Spirit slot, if you get assigned to carry one*)
- Charm Animal (Beast Mastery)

(*May also require you to spec in Wilderness Survival instead of Beast Mastery, depending on the spirit)

I too am lower than rank three and have had great difficulty finding groups. I plan to run IWAY to fame farm for a bit. I have a few questions about weapons. I’ve heard arguments for each mod listed below and would like some input.

1. What haft to use, Vamp, Zeal, one of each, or other?

2. 15 over 50 or other?

3. Fortitude, Defense, or other?

4. I’ve have been told to be sure to bring a bow. What kind and what mods?

Thank you in advance for your time and input. Also, I apologize if this has been covered in previous threads.

If Im playing IWAY Ill use the zealous since your using tiger's fury,fortitude probaly not real sure.On the bow it doesn't real matter since you switch to your axe in about 5 seconds after you shoot :P.

As my PvE build is W/Mo, I use a customized Flatbow 9-13 with no req. for pulling and attacking out of reach enemies. Would this be sufficient or should I upgrade?

executioners strike does more than 100 dmg to 90% of monks. its def worth bringing. Adrenaline shouldn't be hard to obtain for it, as you're going to be attacking upto 50% faster with both iway and tigers fury(i believe 50% is max although these two skills together is 66%)

Direct from Arenanet:

Update: Thursday, September 29

Balance Changes

Capped attack speed adjustments at 133% of normal attack speed, down from 150% previously.


133% is the fastest you can attack PERIOD.
