Everytime someone says you can't it just makes me want to do it that much more.

Then do it, and post back here. I, personally, want to be the first one to either solo the Underworld after the eminant 105 build nerf, or solo Sorrow's Furnace (which will be decked with enchantment removal, like the Shiverpeaks, I'm guessing).

The one problem with every build I go down with is how often 75% chance to block works. When looking at the available skills that a warrior has available there is no way to just straight duke it out with just the aatxe in the first area.
Healing Hands with full gladiators combined with either a Watch Yourself or Dolyak Signet might be enough to offset the damage from an aatxe attack. But, once you get gashed it often spells trouble. And many a times has mend ailment been slapped by a Savage Slash. Plus, the recharge times inbetween Healing Hands leaves you vulnerable to attacks. Bonetti's would be the way to go, since I firmly believe that any warrior attempting to solo the UW must have 14+ tactics for the longevity of stances.
But what healing method do you bring down? I always go with Healing Signet because my tactics is 16. It heals 159, which is great. But when that 75% chance to block fails, and that aatxe gets a critical... it hits for 200+ damage. I try to only use healing signet when I have a Riposte and Deadly Riposte ready to ensure that aatxe never strikes me at -40AL.
But suppose you find a method to take down aatxe, what about the smites? I find I can stand there with Zealot's Fire while I constantly spam Healing Signet and my stances. It eventually kills them, but whether it could take down a large group is beyond me.
When I fight an aatxe one-on-one, I use this pattern of stances: Gladiator's Defense, Shield Stance, Gladiator's Defense, Bonetti's Defense, Bonetti's Defense then back around to the start. I always pray that I can kill the aatxe before I have to do a second bonetti's because you can't heal yourself or you become vulnerable. Trouble arises though when taking out one aatxe followed by another without time to rest. It gets ugly as you can imagine. Bonetti's scares me in general because before I go into the back-to-back Bonetti's I have to be as close to full health as possible. And during that entire time, I'm bleeding for a good 22 seconds. 22 seconds in which I can't press that safety net of Riposte, Deadly Riposte, or Healing Signet.
Here is my current setup for my attempts:
Gladitor's Defense {e}
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Shield Stance
Watch Yourself
Bonetti's Defense
Healing Signet
Zealot's Fire
Smite - 9
Strength - 3 + 1
Sword - 8 + 1
Tactics - 12 + 4
If anyone can suggest anything on my build to prehaps give the OP some ideas it would help all us w/mos in need of some much deserved ecto.

Didn't work. I don't think Protective Spirit works like it reads. I was down to 1/2 life before I could press another button. Got a nice surge from Shield of regeneration and Healing signet, then beat to death after that. lol

Few things to note:
If you used Flurry, that would end Balanced Stance or Bonetti's Defense. I'd stick with Cyclone Axe for when you get to the smites just to build adrenaline. Also, cyclone axe does trigger Zealot's Fire so everything on your skill choice will trigger it.
Healing Signet is 159 at 16 tactics. Also, Bonetti's would be 11 seconds and Balanced would be 21. 9 into smite only gives Zealot's 29 damage but it will only do I believe 13 damage on aaxte becuase they resist it. Some of the numbers you provided are not what they would be at their given levels.
Aatxe constantly use Deadly Riposte and Sever Artery. You will always be bleeding, no need for a reduce duration of bleeding. On that note, they also use Riposte very often. And don't forget Gash, deep wound is a real drag.
You have two spells that require a second of cast time. More than enough for an aatxe to get away a savage slash (trust me I know). Best hope you have Bonetti's up or Guardian's 44% chance is enough. Also since you are bringing nothing in the form of offense except Cyclone Axe you will have to recast Zealot's Fire at least once. If that gets slashed you may be in trouble.
Since you don't have a shield, every hit from an aatxe will drop 10% of your life. Since you're not using the collector's shield, you will only have 455 life.
Better hope you can time those skills just right.

Balanced Stance does NOT end if you use another skill read the description.

I didn't say that. I said when you use Flurry it would end Balanced Stance since both are stances. You can only have one in effect at a time.

Am trying a 20 hp W/Mo with Protective Spirit as my next build/run. With Knights Gauntlets should nullify the 2pts dmg. Need a way to use a Superior Rune of Absorpsion and still get down to 20hps. Also not using any attack weapon to prevent reposte. -375hps for the superior runes and -55 for the focus item = -430hps should leave me with 20hps correct?
Gonna try:
Protective Spirit
Bonetti's Defense
Balthazar's Aura
Zealots Fire
Reversal of Fortune or Healing Signet
Divine Intervention
Symbol of Wrath or Shield of Judgement
Guardian
I should always have plenty of energy, the timing of the recast of Protective Spirit will bethe life or death of me. Lol I bet I die on first hit. hahah Oh well it's fun trying out different things.
Strategy:
I plan on using Guardian just before casting Protective Spirit each round. And even if Zealots Fire gets slashed if I can just stay alive I will eventually get it to take again. Thinking about just spamming Protective Spirit and maybe using Healing Signet instead.
Here a whole lot of tactics I don't think is required since I don't need much healing, I just need to not take much dmg.

i found i could do it at about lvl17, just start off by grabbing 3 or 4 groups, at first you'll get frustrated, but keep trying, you'll hit 20 soon, then it's easy to farm with 2 or 3 groups, right now i farm griffons in two groups, i don't know if its possible to get them all in one (haven't tried)

Ok thanks, Working on building my Warrior right now. he's 4 atm 
Racthoh
A warrior without any superior runes has 530 health. 5 Superior runes would be -375 but you wouldn't be near 20 health.
When I said you'd have 455 life, I was already taking into account the use of 1 superior rune since your build included it.

Well, I tried soloing UW today with my W/E. here's my build:
Bonetti's defense
gladiator's defense
shield stance
healing signet
doylak signet
Ward against melee
armor of earth
aftershock
Tactics 10 +4
Str 11 +1
Earth 10
shield : 16 armor, +45 and -2 dmg (while in a stance)
sword: +5 energy, enchantment last 16% longer(this is for armor of earth)
armor: gladiator set with knight's boot
Used 1 sup runes of tactic, 1 major vigor, 1 major absorption and 1 minor strength.
If you use the shield stance, gladiator's defense and bonetti's defense wisely. You will have a permanent 75% evasion. Comboed with ward against melee, it should give you
near perfect attack evasion. Doylak signet and armor of earth is just there to increase the survival rate. If you have 15 str, you can have doylak signet on always which combined with armor of earth reduce ataxes damage significantly. The problem I had though is to dish out damage. With this build, you can survive any type of physical attack easily, but damage-wise it really sucks.
With this build, you can solo desert griffons too, but definitely takes a longer time than a Mo/W.
