i've decided to make a warrior char since i got victo's blade in a tomb run *yay* (i'm relatively new to the game so bare with me)... and i thought, well as long as i'm making one class i haven't made before, let's make it two so i unlock more new skills...

so the secondary is going to be either mesmer or necro...

i've read through the builds post, but haven't noticed any PvE warrior/mesmer or warrior/necro build that uses swords...


i thought of making emphasis mostly on dmg rather than tanking...

thus, if you have any suggestions for a warrior/necro or warrior/mesmer wielding a victo's blade and focusing primarily on dmg dealing, i'd be glad to hear them

tnx in advance

Keeping in mind that you can change your secondary once you get to the desert, I vote W/N. You have Plague Touch to remove status effects from you (blind/bleeding/etc), you have Vampiric Touch to gain health, you have Rigor Mortis to prevent your opponent from evading or blocking your attacks. A Warrior/Necro has a thousand options open to them, right from the start of the game.

Warrior Mesmers... You really won't ever have enough energy to use Mes and Sword skills. Not to mention that the best W/Me spell out there isn't available until late in the game (Illus. Weap.). To me it would make just as much sense to switch secondaries when you get the opportunity.

If you are looking mostly for PVE, I vote for Mesmer. While most think Mesmer skills are energy intensive, that's really not the case. Think about some of the skills that you have access to. Physical Resistance and Elemental Resistance, very very nice defense skills right there. They only require 10 energy and with 8 in Inspriration, last over a minute. Ether Feast is only 5 energy and is a decent heal. The basic Warrior consists of Severe Artery, Gash, Galrath, Final Thrust. Then you have the tactics builds. 95% of decent Warrior builds rely mainly on, well Warrior skills give or take one or two secondary skills. Can't go wrong with Mesmer.

I love running a Virulent warrior (W/N) for both PvE and PvP. Don't currently have the build on hand but its posted somewhere back on these forums.
