DE Warrior and Interpting npc casters
 
I have a question

I have a lvl 25 dark elf Warrior, having issues interrupting casters. What is the best method of use? Since kick is useless in these scenarios. Thanks in advance.

A shield and bash. The way its typically done in higher level groups is by pushing the mob.

At 55 your kick will stun otherwise the only other options are shield bash or large races can slam while dual weilding

Sub shield, bash, sub OH weap. Repeat

That’s pretty much all the advice that’s realistic for lower level warriors.

As you and any other melee classes/pets advance (or pockets become deeper) comes haste gear & buffs, weapons with spell effects that stun or interrupt become available, better more reliable double attack and dual wield chances for more attacks overtime- it is possible to push casters and interrupt spells by all attacking on the same side.

Normally you would position a monster with their back to everyone but you to improve dps by removing the chance of defense skills triggering. But it can be a good practice on key spells (gate/CH) at high levels to move to the dps side and focus the caster in a direction that won’t put their back to a wall.

Depending on the mob (melee hits, enrage) you want either to have a side push with all people stacking 90° from the tank, or strait stacking on the tank...

I was just referring to casual- small group content where it’s mostly about chaining pulls and nobody but the tank or puller is usually paying much attention.

Equip shield and use bash is your only option at lvl 25

in group situations tanks are not expected to interrupt npc castings, our bash/kick/slam are not reliable enough.

either let other class worry about it, or command the dps melees to push with you; personally im not going thru the trouble to switch shield because thats not a tanks job. it's either a collaborative effort, or those who can effectively stun

Invite a wizard, cleric or druid, all of which have push back nukes and stuns.

As a low level warrior it is your job to stand on the toes of a mob. Someone roots it and then everyone auto attacks it.
