DPS Warriors

Hello, all DPS warriors or warriors that may want to convert! This thread is meant for discussion and questions on DPS builds for warriors. I've read all the posts under the warrior section and have not seen any DPS warriors. I am now a warrior revolved around DPS and I love it!
The pros of being a DPS warrior are obviously the continuoues damage and being able to survive longer than other classes while still being able to hit hard. Along with the bloodstrike armor, you're pretty much a damage dealing machine. The Golden Amulet of Rejuvenation is also much more useful in dealing more damage and can keep you alive much longer. The increased energy and regeneration leaves you with an endless barage of "Giant Swings" (with amazing amounts of damage).
Unfortunately, and obviously, there are some cons. As a DPS warrior, you cannot effectivly tank and die much faster than a tank warrior.
This being said, DPS warriors are fast levelers, contribute more in boss battles, and ultimately kick some serious butt. However, too many DPS warriors is not necassarily a good thing; ESPECIALY in a clan with few tanks.
Incase anyone is wondering or wants to contribute, my stats are currently 317, 5, 35, 48

Hey I was about to make a thread about this, but i guess you beat me to the punch.
But lucky for you I have been doing a lot of experimenting myself, as I see you have
currently I'm lvl 70 with 135-50-50-135 ( this is without rejuv, and with warden boots/gloves.)
I'm waiting to reset my stats until after i get my rejuv to optimize str.
But I must say, interestingly enough you missed out other details that I'd like to discuss, such as: Skills, max gear to optimize atk/dmg.
Implementing a near perfect ratio to accommodate other scenarios, such as training, bossing, soloing, duoing.
I'm currently working on frenzy, and it seems to be helpful, however the time is very short, but at 15 who knows it could be a game changer?
I noticed you have no added dexterity, how do you feel about your chances in hitting? are you confident in your ability to hit, or is it something you may have overlooked and would consider changing?

Nice to see somone is thinking of these things
I do not currently have a rejuv ammy, myself, and i am doing fine.
I have a full set of warden except the weapon (one dragon frag away), slayer's baslard, and an ancient falchion. My attack stat is above 800 and my accuracy is quite fine (maybe i will add some dex in the future. 20-40).
The skills are very useful but with my current weapon, i am not optimizing damage. After i get and upgrade the warden weapon, giant swing will tear through everything.
As for training, this works fine. Boss fights are not an issue since im mainly a DPS warrior, leaving the tanking to someone else.
Unfortunately, rather than one-shotting everything below level 50, i tend to kill them in 2 shots because the lack of power per shot (thogh dps is greater due to attack speeds and accuracy becuse of the baslard)

Well with 48 vitality, its like about 300hp. I also have warden armor, which gives me additional health. My damage stat is now lowered since i am using a falchion and baslard for more dps, rather than hitting high but way slower.
You can calculate damage rate by dividing the total weapon damage by attack speed. Remember that gloves of haste increase attack speed (lowers attack speed value).
Since the Christmas update, a new secondary is in the luxury shop. Its an axe with 17slash damage, 50attack, 20energy, and 20health. It is sitting at 80k

Warden gear is better to have because your survivability goes up. You can then put the points (or atleast some) into strength. Also, hitting high does not mean great dps. If you are using the giant weapons, you will have to rely on an amulet for your high specials to keep good dps.
