Best Aggro Weapons for low-mid level warriors (15-35)

[knottyb0y]

Hey

I am interested in hearing what fellow warriors feel are the best aggro weapons for the mid teens up to mid 30s. With Kunark in full swing I've seen quite a few weapons that are relatively cheap and have a decent ratio.

My Current Setup is
Primary: Goblin Skull Crusher (7/32 +6 sv cold proc: Stun (proc level 15)
Secondary: Obsidian Shard (6/25 proc: Obsidian Shatter Proc level 16)

I am particularly looking for better ratio weapons to compete with these monks and rogues with kunark weapons that are doing outrageous damage compared to my 6 and 7 damage weapons. With that said I just hit 15, so I have yet to experience the full proccing experience or frequency on the weapons.

Yeah, I saw similar issues while leveling up here. The problem is that when you're undergeared, proccing weapons just don't seem to be enough. After the damage cap was gone (level 20), I switched to high damage weapons - particularly things like Brell's Keg Popper, Shimmering Partisan, and Fist of Zek. Two-handers with moderate damage and low delay (Poison Wind Censer) can also be quite effective. Wurmslayer is the ultimate solution if it is affordable to you on P99.

Monk twinks with haste items are always going to pose a problem until they learn to FD evade. That's half the problem - people still think they're playing WoW where they can go all out with no consequences.

Using 2x SSoY when it starts proccing at 37 is going to be a god send, but it's all up hill until then.

the monk weapons that are coming out of kunark are insane dps and they are very cheap for even a low-mid lvl twink to acquire. thankfully warriors have it pretty good as well. get yourself something like a sword of skyfire for a primary and maybe a cane of the tranquil for your second.

forget proccing at this level, just focus on doing as much damage as possible and burn the mobs down. even if your aggro isn't perfect it saves the cleric mana having to heal for longer.

Smoldering Brand procs at L1, decent ratio, and drops like candy from the hole (so it should be relatively cheap to acquire).

Do note, however, that stun and debuff procs generate more aggro than simple DD or DoT procs. Therefore, the two weapons you have (stun for 1 proc and -AC for the other) are about as good as you can get until dual-stun SSoYs that start proccing at L37. The market for SSoYs has dropped dramatically even though their aggro is still great into the planar levels.

Not that I know a lot about warrior tanking, but the advice already provided looks decent.

Yeah, the smoldering brand proc isn't that high aggro, and the dam/delay isn't as good as some of the other choices available. And it's still quite difficult to attain with prices fluctuating from 400p to 1400p.

(I recently had trouble finding one for a twink.)

The weps you are using ain't bad for your level. Ykeshan war clubs are a cheaper alternative to SSoYs I think, not sure on pricing SSoY vs club.

YWC doesn't proc until 40. I love how much lighter they are, too.

Didn't know they didn't proc until 40 but I seen em for 500pp. I think he could hold onto his 2 current weps until 40 and be safe and use his money elsewhere.

I'd prefer an SSOY over a YWC any day of the week. YWCs look like crappy newbie clubs, yaks look like kukris.
