Hello,

I’d like to hear your opinions on warrior after the nerf:

1. Reading the patchnotes – it seems to me that the condi build took a bigger hit. Did that hit put the condi build behind in effectiveness or is it still better than the power build despite the bigger nerf?

2. If I chose the condi build is it still mace/shield + LB or maybe sword/shield + LB?

3. If I chose the power build is axe now superior with the buffs it got or is that too still mace/shield + GS?

4. And finally: Bloody Roar or Eternal Champion? (If I had to make a guess I’d say BR if there’s a lot of boon corruption on the enemy roster, otherwise EC.)

Thanks

enthusiastic noob

1. The power build is pretty much better now. Though the torch changes yesterday may alrdy have shifted the balance again.

2. Still M/S. Sword is not a good weapon in any scenario. (the primal burst misses really easily)

3. They are pretty even, though I’m personally leaning on the axe. Axe has a ranged attack and more reliable Primal Burst for keeping up AH, but mace has 2 CC skills and a block. Axe is better for pure damage as well which was the case even before the buffs.

4. Exactly as you deduced, it’s situational. Good job!
-Personally as I use axe, I prefer Bloody Roar to replace the CC I lost with ditching mace.

typical “balance” patch, they destroy an op class.

now war is just useless but maybe can be decent in a lowlevel.
