9/10 for the thief- Suitably Charr and fitting for profession and legion. Could use a little backstory. 7/10 for the engineer, because honestly that sounds like a name more fitting for a Blood Legion charr or at least a warrior- But at least it sounds like a Charr name.

Mine’s Mera Steeljaw, Iron Legion warrior. (and yes, female, hence the “softer” first name) She got the name for having nerves of steel when under pressure, mostly. She’s the sort that just doesnt break.

+1 for both suggestions, they’ve both been a pain in my tail since I picked up the game and it would really streamline the TP experience.

Few people play female Charr

My highest-level character is a burly female Charr warrior and unlike a lot of people here I actually adore the voice acting. :s but yeah I rarely see Charr on my server and I think I might be the only female charr I’ve seen there yet. My second-highest-levelled is a male Charr engie- Runty, with one of the less grizzled-looking faces though.

Healing Signet Buff?

I hope so. Healing Signet could stand to be a lot more useful (It’s seemed to serve me better than Surge for whatever reason as of late, though, but I’m fairly low-level)

Tank build

I’ve been messing around with a build editor, figuring out where I want to take things with my charr warrior as i level up (33 atm). Wanted a tanky mace/shield build (or at least one that somewhat compensates for warriors being so squishy) with the shouts (sans Fear Me!) and signet of rage. May or may not swap the hammer for GS, i dunno. Any input for a novice player?

Is Sword/Mace + Hammer viable?

in Warrior

Posted by: Apogee.4850

Yeah, I’m mostly just wondering if there’s anything sword/mace does that axe/mace can’t. Sword/mace has a cripple, leap and burst immob and bleed; ace/mace has vulnerability (which hits everything close enough), ranged cripple and burst leap (though the axe burst’s range leaves much to be desired). And superior dps.
…Actually, it’s becoming a bit obvious to me now why sword/mace isn’t seen all that much.
Hammer vs GS then? I understand they’re both useful in different situations but at this point in the game it’s pretty much straight-up PvE for me. The hammer’s CC is extremely useful but the GS obviously has the highest DPS for warriors thanks to 100b.

Hi everyone, fairly new warrior here (currently lv20) and I’ve been tinkering around with weapons recently. I wanted some input on which weapons are most effective. I’m currently using Axe/Mace and Hammer (generally using hammer for cc and abusing knockdown+stun in general), but in the past I’ve been using GS+Hammer, and Sword/Mace+GS. Obviously GW is fantastic, 100b spam, etc etc and I’m probably gonna go back to it instead of hammer once I pick up a decent GS again, but what I’m really curious about is Sword/Mace and how it stacks up to Axe/Mace. I found the mace’s offhand skills a useful addition to the sword, but it suffers for DPS against axe/mace- Though that may well be because my gear had absolutely no bonuses to condition damage (i generally go for power and toughness since i mostly used GS in the past).

I got a little rambly there, but. Any input? I haven’t seen anything about sword/mace as a valid combination before and I’m curious.
