Celtic Heroes

Warrior's my first character. I have always played warriors from WoW to Arcane Legends and what not...

The more I look at the Warrior skills, stats, gear, etc, the more I feel this class is gimped...big time.

Someone please tell me I am wrong... and why, because I'm starting to feel like I should just switch to another class.

Reason:

1. Dex gives Defence. This helps with 'avoidance'. Warr just gets Damage Mitigation skills like Prot Stance and Enduring. Meaning, we still need a healthy HP pool because we are more of a big giant soaky soaky sponge....period.

2. Looking through the Shale vendor, Warrior armor has the highest...er...armor. So is the price. Da frak!? It's Warr specific, we NEED armor since we're designed that way and its MORE EXPENSIVE!?! Just because the armor value is higher doesnt justify it being more expensive. The armor value being high is because its in our crappy design!

3. Armor again...so having the strongest armor value gear... it comes with another drawback...WEIGHT. The higher your weight intake, the lower your mana pool goes. So you suffer more as you wear heavier armor. Probably 3-4 Pummels and you're out of energy unless you have regen gear. Unless you start off and buy plat for the regen lux gear... levelling a Warr sux big time.

4. Energy... really? Refer to #3 above. Our armor and weight are squeezes nutz...thus affect Energy.... thus affecting our ability to use skills...thus making us inefficient....thus some end up pumping focus...thus resulting in lower vit or str...thus becoming a crappy weird stat Warr.


I know I am probably going to get flamed for this but I seriously feel the Warr class could have been better designed. As of right now, completely and utterly out of balance. Way, way, way out. Doesn't even feel like I'm playing a Warrior. More like some Peasant Class with a plastic sword and poking very slowly at things and then spend 70% of the time, resting and regenerating because I used Giant Swing more than once in a fight.

Hell, my alt is a Ranger and I heard they were nerfed recently, but heck, feels really good. Smooth. Flexible. Much Much MUUUCCCHH MORE BALANCED than a Warr imo.


Seriously, OTM... I just spend $$ on plat cause I think this game is really nice. But dont make me regret it please.

At the shalemont shop, warrior armor is the same price as other armours.

Actually you are quite wrong warriors were made top because they used to be bad but now we can match our usefulness as well as rogue, mage, and druid can... Rangers were nerfed class...

agreed +1

notice how all the tank warriors can pretty much destroy most classes (i.e. mine)
and as red said the shalemont vendor actually sells every armor for the same price

firstly our armor and health destroys other classes. and this "weight" issue is only for people without warden+ armor or opal+ armor which are very light armors

Have you tried to kill anything solo as a tank?!?!?

Up is the same for all classes just takes a person willing to put in all the vit to achieve it what makes a warrior different is the amount of armor. Prior to update 3 warriors were pretty well balance had great damage and tanking ability but after update 3 the damage went south fast couldnt compete with any other class unless u had extremely rare items compared to frozen this forced a tank only role. Now update 4 damage was slightly increased due to shatter but still cant even compare to any other class tanks are a class that u only need a few of which means any more tanks then required are useless. Even going full dps stats meaning mostly str with some vit and damage skills over tanking skills a warriors damage is pathetic it requires top gear to make the damage decent but this gear is useable by all classes so any boast by this gear would be the same and compared to an equal character of any other class warrior would still lose.

Ppl say warriors dont need damage because they have armor but fail to realize a warrior only has great armor when going tank and when they go dps they sacrifice that armor bonus. Sure the defualt armor has more armor but being one of the only two classes that has to be in auto attack range it would make sense for those having to be up close to use more armor then someone who could evade aoe by attacking from a distance. Overall warriors need a damage boost obviously not top dps but it should be decent when u to the dps route.

i agree only with the focus part
tho we're not the best dps's, we're the best tank and best or at least top 2 hybrids IMO
the only hybrid that might be better (ofc im talking about lvling/bossing only) are druids, cuz of the heal, but their armour pretty much ruins it
im not sure about new stuff and lux so i cant tell u according to those stuff since i already quit, but, my hybrid was pretty much balanced, yes my energy runs out pretty quickly but im not gonna buy plat, idk how it'll be with new regens, but i hope it helps
as for dps which is most of the time the fun part, we're not the best on it, but i think that the new skills might "fix" it, idk cuz i dont have them
i didnt see all the new skills or what they do, but i believe that all the new stuff might help on balance

all the rest, i think weight is something we can "pay" for getting awesome armour

yes i can solo everything awesomely

i would say to have a tank build while keeping hybrid equipment for leveling purposes (i.e. golden blade?)
