Jousting as a Warrior

[Vokhine]

Hey Guys,

Currently trying to figure out the optimal way to pvp on my warrior. I'm trying to decide btwn my CSS + Shimmering Partisan combo vs Staff of Battle. Dual wield seems to get more hits in per round however SoB hits a lot harder. I'm also trying to figure out the best strategy for dueling in close quarters. Would it be best to leave auto attack off and then pop it on when the enemy get close? I haven't really seen that much info on this and would like some vets to weigh in on it.

Cheers,
Vokhine

there are about 6 variables you didnt mention

[Vokhine]

Care to list any of them?

[miraclegrow2]

How good you are at actually doing it

lag

your location in the world compared to the servers

your skill in 2hb

also dont forget 2h weapons miss 80% of the time for most people or hit below 50 dmg.

Wurmslayer and shimmering partisan if your gonna dual wield pvp.

Checkraise pvp guide, equip OT Hammer

find a buddy and see what works best for you. lag/ping can affect jousting some. some people scroll out of fpv.... hold right click to move sideways/maneuver around and avoid attacks. definitely don't leave attack on unless someone is standing still casting. depending on lvl/gear warriors can be somewhat weak compared to burst damage like a wizard. and like...dispel any dots ofcourse. gl

wurmslayer shimmering for duel wield, can be pretty dope combo honestly for pvp

otherwise staff of battle

hope you made an ogre or troll and put every point into strength

Dex makes you hit more in PvP, as well as proc more.

Definitely scroll all the way out from first person view.

When jousting, try raising the camera up so you can look down on yourself and your opponent a little bit (hold right click and drag upward). Seeing myself and my target from a higher angle helps me time jousts more easily and intuitively.

Make a macro that does the following:
/attack on
/pause 3
/attack off

This lets you tap one button while you are in range to do a round of attacks. If autoattack is on and you're not in range, you're wasting dual wield rounds.

Make a joust button. It should be a key that activates several hot buttons, which should include: the above attack on/off macro; Disarm; and possibly Bash and/or Kick. When you hit this one joust button, you'll simultaneously autoattack and do any of these abilities that are up.

all points into dex, use a bow for crits so u can evade jousting, keep a 2h skilled up for those moments where u need to joust (situational and necesary). Dual wield against caster classes or if u got someone malod+tashed+snared but soon u can forget about that situation in velious gear. U need all if u want to excel, u gotta swap.

[Genedin]

lol, i mean eventually you will win a 1v1 if you have tons of arrows and they dont have ranged, but that's not really a solid tactic

[DRAGONBAIT]

'bow is situational. dex its cos its the harder stat to max out isnt it? ive even been told to go cha on a warrior but i dont understand that honestly

also, i remember from live that warriors used bow even better than rangers in pvp during luclin era and end of velious, they also got a crit discipline and velious bows have awesome ratios. im not sure about this tho, never engaged with a warrior 1v1 that i remember neither played one. some of the asdasjkd awesome warriors of this server should comment on this. noone tested it here?

charisma is for an enchanter buff that procs, honestly wouldn't do that unless you going to be main tanking for a guild.

dex is pretty hard to get up, and with buffs you'll get pretty high STR on a warrior, but im also taking into account leveling up. as an ogre or troll your STR will be considerably higher than other races and you will hit for much more dmg. lvl 60 with full raid gear and buffs your race is pretty inconsequential thus people say charisma cause its the only thing your gear wont get high lvl

Best pvp

[SamwiseRed]

i loved how non fat warriors had to use a shields in classic against casters. nice screenshot.

[Vokhine]

Iksar myself so the shield switch is real!

[billyretruns]

Ppl don't realize I could have been the best but I was literally on a computer built in 2000... Like... 3 min load time every time. And I was in the woods on stray WiFi, living in a tent with no table.

press two buttons for your joust, your attack key and your disarm + kick/taunt key.


This.

[Vokhine]

Uh why taunt?

[Kergan]

it will enrage your enemy

[Vokhine]

If you put all your starting points into CHA as a warrior people wont attack u

[Genedin]

please for the love of god stop telling people to use joust macro's lol.

auto attack should not be tied in with anything, it should be a seperate key.

press two buttons for your joust, your attack key and your disarm + kick/taunt key.

this server doesnt handle tie ins with auto attack well, even if its the first on the list there is certainly a delay.

Nice pro tips coming out in this thread.
