Warriors are useless in 90% of the games content

A lot of shitty warriors in this thread.

I almost can't even fathom how to be a shitty warrior cuz the class is so brain dead

Yet, surprisingly, there is a big differential between a good warrior and a shitty one.

I like to solo 51-60 untwinked on bats, show up to raids with exhausted clickies and gear worse than crusty.

you know a class is good when optimal play is using clickies to cast other classes abilities to function at a fundamental level

im ngl, the only difference i can think of is basically just making sure auto attack is on, and your monitor isnt off

I'm a big proponent of bash being upgraded to cause aggro in a similar fashion to spell stuns. When Dragons of Norrath came out one of the devs did actually say they had intended it to, didn't realise it was broke for years cos they thought people just overlooking shields as an option through ignorance.

That kind of shows how incompetent the devs are then, doesn't it?

It took them until Dragons of Norrath to figure that out?!

IIRC there was something completely broken about Shamans for the first 6-9 months. I think it was Alchemy, maybe it never succeeded or never gave skill-ups. The devs insisted it wasn't broken, because whenever they did their testing, they used dev tools that created mid-level shamans that skipped over whatever mechanism caused the bug. If a single member of the dev team had leveled a shaman up naturally the bug would have been obvious.

Anyone else remember this? I just found a newsgroup post complaining about it: https://groups.google.com/g/alt.game.../c/eTn9DwdwPhY

Aside from the potions, Alchemy is broken for the basic reason that you
*can't train* the skill. It's permanently stuck at zero due to a bug (trade
skills can't be trained past 21- and alchemy is obtained at 25, which means
if you could put a point in it, you'd train it past the limit. Ergo, no one
can make the skill go up.) The result is that making any potion except one
is equivalent to trying to make banded with a zero skill- not happening.

Since we are not hearing Ranger Down as nearly as we heard at retail warriors must be doing something right.

The warrior probably has the least agency over how frequently they die in the whole equation.

Press defensive
Have good gear
Don't auto attack if you're really low hp?
I mean what else can you do lol
