Could someone explain to me why a 10%chance of getting 1 more strike of adrenaline is so good and popular, it seems like whilst yes you may if your lucky get your adren charged for a spike slightly faster. This is heavily outweighed by being able to use energy heavy skills with a zealous mod, Or by the consistent +3damage from a Vampiric mod.

it just depends on what build you wanna run. if you're axe and all adrenaline skills you'll want that furious haft. if you're running energy skills you'll have more of a use for the zealous mod. most warriors end up with several weapons and sets of armor for whatever job is at hand.

I noticed that, since a recent patch was released, my attacks using my vampiric axes would deal their normal damage but +3 damage as well. Is it a bug? Does it really add +3 damages? If yes, that could be real nice, with flurry or other ias skills...

That means you gain 3 health while the foe loses 3 health, as simple as that.

Furious is usually only useful for axe warriors. In my opinion, it is one of the most useless mods just like the Sundering mod. I don't really like conditional mods especially with a low chance (10%).

The Furious mod is popular for 55hp builds....
1) furious Flame Spitter of Enchanting
or
2) furious HOD of Enchanting

Furious and Sundering are total crap. They kick in as much as you hit the enemy when you are blind.

Furious.

If you wanted to boost your DPS then go with Vampiric.

Like I said, the furious mod is holding value because "rich" players buy them for their 55 monks!

Its the best mod for a 55hp...Balthazar's Spirit+Bonnetti's
-IMO it doesn't help much, but if your rich, why not, might as well go for perfection!

Furious mod is only one really worth having for a 55! thats why they are still going for a high price... oh and cuz of the occasional dumbARSE!

IMO, Sundering is useless. 10% to hit +10 more damage on that attack, which is approx. +1 damage per attack. Vampiric does 3+ damage, 100%, 10% chance to hit +30 theoretically. Would you rather hit 3+ all the time, or 10+, every 10 hits or so?

Furious is debatable, such as with cyclone axe, you'll probably be getting +2 adrenaline in a big group, its mostly about situations.

I have no idea about the Sundering as that doesn't allow me to gain adrenaline faster and I have skills that give me AP capabilities.

I do see a difference in the amount of adrenaline I gain with my 10/9 Furious haft vs. my other axes. Yes, with my 55 monk the furious is nice because I can charge Bonnetti's quicker to regain energy.

I don't think Furious is like sundering and just something to show off for "wealthy" players... I have seen a huge difference with the Furious mod in combat like wacking on Ice Imps when soloing for the IDS - Watch Yourself is nice to have running continously.

Furious mod with cyclone and frenzy will net you alot of Adrenline! MOst adrenal warriors run furious for that reason alone build adrenaline switch to vampiric for the spike!

Furious Rocks IMHO as well as vampiric!

Also zealous with cyclone is pretty sweet as well, but Hundred blades with a zealous is also pretty sweet. SO Choose i have all those mods for my warrior depends on the situation to be perfectly honest!

for55 i use balthazars spirit with a 20% enchant mod never tried a furious but looks like im going to! Thanks

Is sundering still selling 60k? Zealous and Vampiric are actually worse than Furious when blinded, especially since their -1 degen penalties constantly apply.

The fact that they're less effective when blind carres as much weight as the fact that 15^50 weapons deal 15% less damage when you're under 50% hp. Those aren't situations that you typicaly plan for, so you tend to ignore them.
