Alternate Trinkets

  • Celestial: This is more Tanky, and i like it just as much. max burn 2.5k ticks
  • Wanderer’s: Tanky, but Diamond skin Elementalists will laugh at you unless you can very cleverly hit them with a close up f1 quickly. it will get them just barely bellow 90% health but they will only take a few burns, so you have to headbutt them and blow your outrage to stack on enough to hurt them.

Rabid: Wanderer’s is better

Concept
Burn, oh god the burn!

Attack Rotation

  • Dolyak Signet
  • Start on sword torch
  • Torch 5+Sword 2
  • Weapon swap+Axe 5
  • At the end of Axe 5, f2+f1

Reset Rotation

  • Swap to sword torch at the end of your attack rotation, (refills a lot of adrenaline)
  • Torch 4
  • Sword 3
  • F1
  • back to attack rotation

Emergency Reset

  • After stun, Headbutt+Dodge (breaks stun and evades the inevitable followup interrupts)
  • f2+f1
  • swap to torch, if needed
  • Torch 4+torch 5
  • Return to attack rotation

Full Defensive Rotation

  • When in Danger, Sword 2+Headbutt+outrage+f2 (close to 5k heal)
  • Wait for stun(if you think it’s coming), Endure Pain. (close to 2.5k heal if stunned)
  • Return to reset rotation.

I’m not pro at this build yet. And i probably never will be because of my bad hand. but That’s the general idea. so far it does well against everything except for bunker Revenants and reapers, though that’s probably because i’m not pro.

Wouldn’t any strong ranged and/or condi class completely counter the build? Even up close, I feel like a condi daredevil would leave a payload and then walk away with no real defense.

In fact, I’m not even sure why a normal greataxe running Berserker’s stance, Healing Signet, and Brawlers wouldn’t be able to have you downed before suffering anything from your condis.

What am I missing? Beyond apparently being fun to play (which is great to hear), how do you do well against these other builds that aren’t bunker revenants or reapers?

I’m Biff Rangoon, and I approved this message.

Zerkerberker, Gunflame + Sig of Might could turn this build to mincemeat.

I guess it’s fortunate there aren’t a lot of berserkers out there atm.

So far what gives me difficulty is Bunker Revenant. Rangers are a problem when they are above you, because you can’t get to them. Other than that I do alright. The highest burn ticks I’ve gotten are 4.2k but I admit that I’m not that good. Healing was the hardest thing to learn. Because I rely on rousing resilience I have to be quick to use my stun breaks, and i have to use the right ones. Fighting stuff that does not have stuns normally comes down to me relying on my Full Defense Rotation.

I don’t know if you are missing anything, but other warriors die very quickly too me unless i screw up or they just out play me.

Hiya, will this build work in PVE also? Mainly for HoT mobs.

Yes. Running Sinister amulet you will easily be able to break 4k burn ticks. Also, in PVE you do not need Dolyaks signet or even necessarily Endure pain. you can run cull rage skills to stack on more burns and more adrenaline which gives you more burns through your primal burst.
