Twinkage: Warrior Advice

[Ridic]

If you ever plan on grouping until 50:

AC>HP>DEX in that order. But don't squat off your dex

Need at least 150 dex, if you can. (unless you're ogre/troll/barb you'll sacrifice too much.)

Need FBSS to proc more

Use Tentacle Whips till 16, Obsidian Shards till 25, Gnoll Hide Lariats till 37, and Yaks at 37.

Procs are normalized to a certain chance / unit of time, and are thus not affected by haste or slow.

think about race - ogre/troll can't wear hero bracer

You actually proc more when slowed.

Agreed. FBSS is just for the dps factor.

Despite it limiting your armor choices, you may want to roll as Ogre if you plan on soloing through your teens/early 20s. The stun immunity will be huge in that regard.

Not that knowledgeable of strictly classic gear, so unsure if there's a lot of dex floating around to balance out your amazing starting str/sta.

That proc weapon progression sounds insane. Def roll with that. Hope you enjoy, twinking is very fun!

I wouldn't use gnoll whips. The ratio is so terrible that the DPS hit will actually be noticeable to the group (warriors are perfectly decent DPS under normal circumstances, especially at low/mid-levels) and they generate virtually no aggro when you don't get procs. There will be times when you don't proc. It'll happen a lot, and when you're having bad proc luck and swinging for six damage, you're not holding aggro from anything. Obsidian Shard is the best way to go before yaks.

You proc at the same rate when slowed, it's just the swings / proc ratio is lower when slowed, so if you were to riposte (or say use a riposte disc) then you'd proc more due to the increased chance to proc per swing.

T'is why people would slow themselves when shakerpaging.

Up until about lvl 15 HP items will give you your largest benfit. After lvl 15 you will want AC items.. the more AC the better IMO. If i was twinking a warrior i would drop the 1hders (unless i was grouping) and i would go with a two handed sword. I would try to get AC/HP items all the way. If i am playing to simply tank and hold aggro, then i would go for proc weapons, and a similiar armor setup. I played a warrior for 6 years as my primary.
