I have way too many items and weapons in my bank/inventory.
57 dorf warrior main.
Want one wep of every proficiency to skill up every time I level.
https://wiki.project1999.com/Reaver
Main weapon 2hs proficiency. Server first
https://wiki.project1999.com/Infestation
Main DW weapon, Piercing
https://wiki.project1999.com/Sarnak_Warhammer
I head the stun is good for interupts so it's my secondar DW weapon 1hb
For the snare
https://wiki.project1999.com/Tserrina%27s_Whip
Proficiency 1hs
The two weapons Im unsure of:
https://wiki.project1999.com/Monsoon,_Sword_of_the_Swiftwind
https://wiki.project1999.com/Velium_Swiftblade
2hs and 1hs, does the item haste make it worth it in all cases?
I already have some item haste in the form of:
https://wiki.project1999.com/Belt_of_Contention
I thought about giving the velium blade to my bard but he already has
https://wiki.project1999.com/Hangman%27s_Noose
https://wiki.project1999.com/Breath_of_Harmony
https://wiki.project1999.com/Guardians_Mace
Should I sell the velium and destroy the 2h?
For the Buffs:
https://wiki.project1999.com/Runed_Blade
2hs proficiency
https://wiki.project1999.com/Cat_o%27_Nine_Tails
1hs
https://wiki.project1999.com/Shieldstorm
2hs
OT hammer.
Midnight Mallet
Embalmers skinning knife
https://wiki.project1999.com/Spectral_Bow
AoE«Factioning https://wiki.project1999.com/Fayguard_Bladecatcher
I just have no bank space between sky quests, epic parts, dain ring parts, and mostly resist gear... Iºm already using 10 slot bags..

Thats too much for me. Your weapon skills must be near enough maxed right?
Sell Velium Swiftblade, Runed Blade, Cat of what?, Shieldstorm, Fayguard Bladecatcher, sarnak warhammer
Destroy Monsoon? Tserrina's whip
Buy/loot haste cloak (CoF/Piety), frostbringer

You want:
2x snare weapons, preferable not both MR based.
Tserinna Whip + Silken Whip is perfect combo for cheap.
2x aggro weapons.
Infestation and Frostbringer, cheap addition to your setup. In the meantime the sarnak hammer offhand is perfectly fine.
Slow proc.
Truncheon of Doom. No plausible reason not to have this, even at 60 with ntov weaps, epic, vp weaps, willsapper etc I carry truncheons on both warriors because a 50% slow proc on a mob is raid saving. For duo and trio content it's amazing.
Taps.
2x bloodpoints
I'd personally sell the reaver to fund the truncheon, and sell other shit to fund the bloodpoints. Ditch all the other garbage. I'd almost exclusively just duo/trio with the truncheon/points.
A bracer of the hidden and clicking someone else is better than you trying to AE with shitty ae weaps, even earthshaker is hot garbage. Ragefire legs are solid for this purpose though. Ragefire BP for outdoor clicky blind super under appreciated item, it's a bio orb for 0 plat for snapping aggro. Ragefire arms for self DS, and aformentioned casting on others for faction.
Stun weaps? kick at 55 stuns and not spamming it like a spaz should suffice (ie watching for casts, having it up exactly as a mob hits 40% etc).
Focussing on skills is terrible idea. They all max within a few hours, so use whatever you want and if you come across some amazing new weapon thats 5 hand lumberjacking or whatever it's a few hours and job done.

keep the following
https://wiki.project1999.com/Reaver - For dps role or solo
https://wiki.project1999.com/Infestation - mainhand aggro
https://wiki.project1999.com/Sarnak_Warhammer - secondary aggro
https://wiki.project1999.com/Tserrina%27s_Whip - to snare if needed, although i never had to snare as war
Slowing weapon and life tapping weapons are really meant for soloing. My war was super geared during the 50s and soloing is still slow as fuck. I can count the number of times I had to pull out scimitar of lifestealing or truncheon doom.
I say skip frostbringer, its good aggro and ratio compared to sarnak hammer but it's too common and fugly. Infest + sarnak hammer is suffcient for aggro until you get VP, epic, and ToV weapons (or willsapper if you can stand its fugliness and mainhand piercing animation)

Also remember the server is literally full of people REALLY bad at this game, who don't snare etc.

Tserrina's Whip is the only poison based snare i know of, makes it super powerful in some zones. Places like gnomes in sola come to mind. That's just one low end example but the theory scales.
Also, it has 2 poison counters, so that whip hits max agro each time it procs

I am a fan of the Runed Blade. I think it's a really cool item to have in your bag if you are willing/can remember to swap it in when mobs are fleeing
Master Roshi
03-09-2021, 12:52 PM
really just think you should ditch all that gear and run a Frostbringer along with the Infestation. Warrior's need the aggro and those two are the usual standard pre-epic/raid gear.
And get a Truncheon like the above guy said. The rest is moot, warriors aren't dps until they are raid geared anyway, especially without a good haste item.

Thanks so much for all the feedback guys.
I like proc weapons they are basically clickys with an extra step I like being a casting warrior and having junk buffs.
Pretty set on destroying aoe wep. Tough mobs will kill me and weak ones don't need it and aren't bunched up enough.
Probably be useful farming bone chips but my Dorf has max faction with iksars already and my bard can aoe himself.
When I was a newb here and live people made out haste to be the be all and end all.
So there's really no circumstance I'd need either haste weapon?
Would the bard benefit from the 1hs haste.
I sold my truncheon when I was broke to buy stuff for the bard... But now I'm tired of the bard for a bit and regret it....
Tobius
03-09-2021, 03:22 PM
I've never heard lifetapping as a viable strategy. The health is worth more than the loss of DpS? Tell me more?
If that's for solo I doubt I can at 57..
I remember feeling Slow hammer took too long to proc unlike live iirc.
Naethyn
03-09-2021, 03:24 PM
I used two blood points, a fungi, and cof from 50-60 and it was great. Another strategy is the joust. Essentially you start the fight with a snare weapon and wait for it to proc. From there you swap to trunch and arrows. Run in, turn on attack, get a slow proc, run away, fire arrows, repeat until slowed. Once the mob is slowed equip the blood points and finish it off.

I think I would rather slam my own genitals in a door than try to kill mobs in this manner.

So just to clarify, destroy Fayguard and Monsoon?

Sell swiftblade?

It's all summarised and simple.
2 Tash sticks optional, but veeeeery situational.
Get truncheon, equip truncheon, hit mobs, proc, swap to bloodpoints. Kill mob.
Repeat.

Monsoon is a 30/33 with the haste it has. Reaver is a 40/40 before you add a haste item. Reaver has a better ratio unhasted, and an even better ratio with haste. it is up to you whether or not you want to destroy it, it may still be good fashion. But it isn't very good in Velious era as a useable weapon. Maybe keep it to fight magical monsters if you are too lazy to get a better magical 2h weapon to swap out reaver for.

People talking about "just buy a fungi/other such endgame items" as if I have an autofire keyboard and time to sit at lodi and stuff, come on. Warriors cant solo fungi king.
Otherwise every other suggestion was helpful. Thanks guys.

You have a 2010 join date and are posting about blue, the assumptions are to be expected. If you don't own a fungi and its outside your means to buy it then its on you to specify.

I have massive gaps in that time of trying to get clean off the evercrack.
And I am a warrior main so cant farm things.
I don't think over half the server has a fungi or they wouldn't be so pricey still.
I'm not trying to be a dick because you posted this in good faith but honestly "get a fungi" is the P99 equivalent of "if you are homeless why don't you just buy a house", anything over 10k for a casual starts to head in that direction.

Im a level 58 Warrior main. New to p99 and currently exp only in the Hole. I use Infestation and Frostbringer and rarely Silken Snare Whip. There is zero reason to have anything else. Warriors are meant to group to 60. After that it is the pursuit of epic and raid weapons.

There are some great experiences to be had outside of chasing the end game. Having a tool kit of niche weapons can make strange group compositions far more efficient (and surprisingly fun).
Also, The Hole is awful. I can't imagine being new to P99 and having Karnor's v2.0 as the only experience through your mid and late 50s. What a snoozefest.

New to p99, not EQ. Top priority is 60. Nothing outside possessing 2 main agro weapons is important in regards to that goal. If one wants to dance around and take forever to max level, I suppose then carry bags and bags of tools makes sense.
