I fully Disagree with Combo.

If I were making a warrior today, it would probably be a WElf too. Maybe even HFL for the xp bonus, but more importantly the Agi and Dex. If you plan on playing for the long hall (as in getting to 50) all the trolls and ogres will be looking for agi gear, and you'll be 20 points ahead of them. You were right about Str and Sta, it will get maxed on its own, and the difference in HP at a low level is inconsequential.

The amount by which you'd be ahead in agi/dex/etc., the ogre will be ahead even more in sta/strength. You just can't deny that an ogre warrior is the best stat-wise.

It's just silly to say that sta/str will be maxed on its own, when you would only need to max it out "on it's own" if you didn't put enough points into it from the start.

In any case, I realize that the differences between class/race combinations are fairly minimal anyway, and so I understand why someone would want a wood elf warrior. In that case you should put the most points possible into sta, end of story.

This is the dumbest fucking thing I've ever read.

Default STR/STA/AGI/DEX for a Warrior:

Troll: 118 STR, 119 STA, 88 AGI, 75 DEX
Ogre: 140 STR, 132 STA, 75 AGI, 70 DEX

Wood Elf: 75 STR, 75 STA, 100 AGI, 80 DEX

So yeah bro, Trolls are going to be clamoring for 12 AGI just to keep up with you, and Ogres are going to need a whole 25!

Problem is, you'll need +44 STA to match a Troll, or +57 to match an Ogre. If you want to talk about STR too, you'll need +43 to match Troll and +65 to match an Ogre.

For the love of god, don't put your points in AGI. You're utterly starved for STA compared to the "big" tanks, and only slightly above them in AGI anyway.




And don't let this make you think you should go Ogre or Troll. They're fantastic Warriors, but the challenge with a Warrior is getting to 50. If you can't stand looking at your character and never think he or she looks "cool," you'll give up at level 9 and go roll a Mage like the rest of the server.

If you are not twinked which I think you are not, I suggest you to put some points in STR because you will need to loot lots of craps to sell. And being Wood Elf, you will have low str.

its up to you, on my Ogre War, I put my pts in Stam and Dex since i need weapon procs and tanking.

Hope this help.

Thanks everyone for your comments. I think I'll stick with my current build and get amber rings/ears and save up for/get hero's braclet and TBB.

stam is fine if you're a twink, but otherwise you should put your points into str for the reasons you already mentioned. if your main is going to be a warrior, you are going to be ghetto poor for practically the entire leveling experience. strength will at least let you pick up a few more FS weapons and carry more plat. And the difference in stam will not pay off until you are basically max level anyway.

If you want to tank you are crazy to not put your max points into stam. a few FS weapons here and there is not worth gimping your HP pool
