If you’re looking for pure damage, go full Berserker Gear with Ruby Orbs on armor. Sigil of Force on Greatsword, either Sigil of Force or Battle on Rifle.

Best trait set up I’ve found for damage is 20/25/0/0/25. Strength: V, IX. Arms: VI, X. Discipline: V, VI

Food: Plate of Truffle Steak and Asparagus Dinner (cuz it’s cheaper than the next one up and isn’t that much worse), Quality Maintenance Oil (again not much worse and cheaper.

This is for PvE, I don’t know if it’s the best but I like it

^ know the dungeon before you take that build in there, more often than not its one-two hits and its nights out. Something with a bit more forgiveness (Knights) will help you to learn the dungeons, you can’t learn if everything one shots you.

^ false. You learn much faster with a glass cannon build because you are forced to dodge, move around in order to live. With knight’s gear I can tank everything and become too lazy to dodge. Why dodge when I can just stand there and take the hit?

Now, what’s another good motivator to dodge and live? Sigils that give you stacks (bloodlust, perception, etc). I wear full berserker’s and bloodlust sigil, and on a good day I can manage to keep all 25 stacks all the way to the end of the dungeon (meaning I never went to downed state).

I don’t agree with this.

You should be dodging regardless of how much armor and health you have. In fractals 30+ a warrior cannot dodge very often and if you’re running around with full berserker you’re going to have a very hard time.

One thing you can do to not sacrifice alot of damage and have some survivability to get you more used to dodging/etc. Is to use Cavalier’s Jewelery instead of Berserker’s.

That’s what I did till I pretty much said “Forget it, I’m going full damage on my Warrior!”

I came to warrior from a guardian main. I found PVT/Knights/Heal Shout/Banner Regen to be the most inneffective gear possible. I died just as much or more than with zerker. They did not help even 5 percent and I cant justify almost ever using them besides some “Skip/Run parts” or some higher level fractals levels when im just playing like a bad kid.

Why doesnt tanky help a warrior? Well most things are a 1/2/3 Shot kill, and all the defense in the world wont help you. If you cant burst things down fast enough (i.e. non zerk gear) It will kill you. Just learn the class, and honestly you will survive the same or better in zerk gear than with tanky gear

Disagree. There are more dungeons out there than CoF1.
My time spent learning D/D Elementalist taught me that getting one-shotted does not help you learn, being able to regularly identify the animation/warm up of attacks that greatly DAMAGE you is of much more help. Don’t get me wrong, you could just be some amazing Warrior that can actually not be a burden in full zerk gear, but more often than not that just isn’t the case, and I actively avoid “beserker warrior LFG” in anything other than CoF.

Sounds like you were holding aggro, believe it or not it takes more skill to mitigate hits and heal appropriately than it does to hide behind the boss avoiding infrequent AoE’s. A zerk warrior is only as good as the person holding aggro, because once they go down the warrior is usually the next target.

You guys are arguing about learning styles - either way, both will help you learn (I’ve run glass cannons and full toughness builds in multiple dungeons on different prof’s).

Also, since nobody pointed it out, might note that rifle is a 1 trick pony (#3 is the only good skill) - and this is coming from a warrior with Predator.

Never understood the obsession with rifle. A quick number crunch will tell you longbow deals more damage, more AoE damage, more hits to proc sigils and food, as well as blind and immobilise are fantastic defensive tools. Seriously if you’re not using Bolas and Longbow for the Mossman… You can almost keep him completely locked down yourself.
