Awesome guide! Interesting read even as a Shaman. Thanks for the work you put into it.

Well evidentially I am overtrained, because I felt the need to write up my thoughts on the retardedly simple warrior class.

Curious if anyone has any feedback or flames or whatnot.

Great guide. Couple comments:

-pretty sure Ykesha warclub procs at 37 not 40 unless its been changed in the last year. This may also apply to some of the other ykesha procs

-I'd add OT hammer, WC gate cap and Jboots to the useful clickies list as travel for a warrior (and any melee for that matter) can be a big issue. especially having the ability to gate out of dungeons like HS, seb, etc when you are leaving a group.

-Incarnadine BP could also be added for unlimited use self invis, as well as the cobalt pieces (self str buff on the boots in particular is easily obtainable and can be used frequently while levelling).

-If your so inclined you could also mention a warriors ability to sneak pull/split for races that have that ability


Thanks for the great guide.

Thanks for the guide! Created a new warrior recently I am in the process of gearing...

As for 1-39 progression gear wise it doesn't sound like you suggest the horrible ratio weapons that proc... Do you more so suggest low delay weapons like jade mace and lammy with fbss for better aggro control than say dual obsidian shards and dex gear?

You could also mention the only real warriors are the ones with extra meat to actually take damage. #Ogreeverytime

Pretty good guide, I wish it had been around when I was spending my starting points trying to remember after a decade of not playing EQ :p Although dex/procs currently on P99 are way more important than they were during classic live.

Also green scales are about 3-4x more rare here than in live it seems, no way the scales should be going for more than VP stuff. If supply/demand is causing that, something is broken.

Excellent guide and a great read!

First, this is a very well written and easy to read guide. You've done a great job on it. In looking at the sentences below, which are from two sequential paragraphs, there seems to be a contradiction.

So my recommendation is something like 1AC:3HP for raid tanking and something like 1AC:5HP for leveling, when it is more likely you'll be healed by a druid or shaman.

While I think it is really inconsequential, the latter sentence indicates that the ratio of AC to HP is greater for the raid scenario, while the target ratio is lower for shaman/druid healed groups. This can be misleading, as it follows the paragraph that states AC is all that matters for the shaman/druid healed groups.

Again, really well written guide as a whole. Thanks for posting it up.
