Shield stance doesn't work with equipment. I hate that. :/

You can drop the res, if your soloing it's worthless. I like to use Riposte/Deadly Riposte on almost anything... if you're going with axe, eviscerate is nice. But Bonnetti's Defence should be in there somewhere.


EDIT: Sorry, you said SF farming, but still, you don't need to carry res. I never did. I like to use Endure Pain as well. Also I know the monks like it when you bring "Shields Up!" It gives defence against ranged.

Dolyak Signet, Bonetti's Defense, Watch Yourself!!

With 10 in both tactics & Strength, that's +50 AL [which affects ele damage too!]

The 4 anti-damage things to bring on a solo warrior I think are:

Bonetti's Defense
healing Signet
Dolyak Signet
Watch Yourself!!

Very good if stacked properly, never use all 3 at once but I use Bonetti's when Dolyak is charging [4seconds w00t]. During Healing Sig, it helps negate 75% dmg about when hp is LOW...

Also, all of the defenses mentioned need no energy, always a plus on warriors. Thank you ANET FOR ADRENALINE MECHANIC! OTHER RPGS NEED THIS, IT'S INGENIUS!!

For damage, I'd bring Cyclone Axe, Dismember, Axe Rake, and me being half Necro, Spiteful Spirit for the AoE of doom. Sadly, my old Mark of Pain build with Victory is Mine! no longer works ;_;

Why would you even need that many attacks? I mean, it's not hard to get into the furnace, and once inside your gonna have a gear anways. I usually just brought Power Attack. This is what I normally run....

Power Attack
Doylak Signet
Endure Pain
Bonnetti's Defence
"Shields Up!"
"Watch Yourself!"
Healing Signet
{Elite} Gladiators Defence {Elite}


I try to get tactics to at least 15
Strength should be around 12-13
You don't really need to have any into sword/axe
If you can I'd even pump both straight up to 16.



Thats what I've run, and I've made at least 50 succesfull runs.

I was actually asking for a tank build for 5-man farming, but still thanks for your comment.
I don't think I will bring adrenaline skill, because I will hold the gear or something in SF anyway.
Should I bring more earth magic skills?

This is the 5 man oro build, you get a ton of adrenalin from them hitting you. I'm thinking the only ele skill should be like ward against harm/foes? Whichever is not an elite.
