Warriors are useless in 90% of the games content

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

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

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

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

I agree except for war it is gear dependent. Krez flame + Nev horn = snap agro for group content /nod...just not many leveling warriors are going to have that combo.

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.

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

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

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

Forget bash aggro. Monks have block.

[Ennewi]

It's odd that only monks received block, but also that it works against attacks from the front and back. IIRC even in WoW players can only block/parry attacks from the front but in EQ...

Like Dodge, Block allows a character to avoid all damage from a physical attack. However, unlike other defensive skills, block can defend against attacks from behind the character.

If nothing else, war/pal/shd could have received block but with the skill requiring a shield be equipped. A secondary shield would have blocked attacks from the front and a back slot shield attacks from behind. And nothing would have been taken away from monks, since theirs would still be the better version independent of gear.
