Deep Strike and leveling

I think that Deep Strike is not completely worthless …it still adds me around 3% of crit chance per signet, so 12% with 4 signets and I have around 80% crit chance at level 30. I think they fixed it a bit in yesterday’s patch so that it doesn’t do wrong values when I remove signet or when i get down/up-leveled. It is still better than first traits from Strength line – there is nothing really useful, so I am using 5% vitality bonus from power there…
Fury effect from “For Great Justice!” (I have set it to auto-cast so it mostly automatically triggers when I start a fight, but sometimes not) and signet of Rage is nice too.

So I reached level 30, but I found playing as warrior to be quite boring. It is just moving from mob to mob and using auto-attack or hundred blades. Crushing enemies faster than they kill me is the main playstyle. No defensive skills or something interesting that can be used to e.g. defeat veterans easier or play a bit with mobs. I often kill the veteran with just ~10% HP left, sometimes I die if I try some higher level one. I tried mace+shield but it is a joke in comparison to guardian’s mace+shield.
I am using GS/Sword+WH or Axe+WH, sometimes I switch for a rifle or longbow for events. I am using only signets + “For Great Justice!” buff because interesting utilities like bull’s charge, stomp, fear me or frenzy have too long cooldown for me to feel comfortable in using them while questing.
I have to say that I had much more fun leveling condition necro or a guardian. Is it normal, or do I miss something? :-)

BTW, isn’t axe/warhorn better than sword/warhorn? Axe has better damage (when I have no condition dmg bonus), it just lacks leap attack…

So I will just put new points to to Strength for power boost. After I will have Str+Arms at 10, is there any recommendatoin if to go to Tactics for Empower Allies (I still don’t know if this 150 power bonus scales with level) or Discipline for Warrior’s sprint or Defense for Adrenal Health later… ?

Ah, pity…face rolling the content wouldn’t be bad :-)

Can you write more details about the high damage mobility build? Is it better than the signet build?

I have seen some warrior leveling guides and they mostly recommend signets build with great sword. Key of this build is skill Deep Strike from Arms trait, which should give 40 precision per unused signet.
I reached level 20 and got Deep Strike, but I found that it adds only 10 precision per signet at my level, or even less if I am downleveled in lower zone. Why is that so?

I have seen that there were some changes in Deep Strike about 3 months ago. Did it cause precision buff to be scaled with level?
If this signet build is no longer good for leveling, as precision buff gives only 4×10 instead of 4×40, what would you recommend for leveling? Does Empower Allies from Tactics trait (150 power to me and allies) also scale with level. or will that one give me 150 power, as written on the tooltip?
