show me the way!

[Marl]

I wanna swing a big stick and kill alot of things at once, I tried picking through the warrior posts but they seem all over the place..so here I come firing off questions.

whats the best race for THW? (all the stats/skills below are from using a giant as a base)

Gimmie a decent stat placement for said race knowing I wont take this char over say mid-30s, if I do I will buy a fixstat. I was thinking somewhere like this. btw I want to be a berserking machine..what do I have to do to do that and also I wanna assess stuff :)


-------BASE STATS----@ lv 35 STATS:
STR---- ------- 85----- 100
CON------------85----- 96
DEX------------ 90----- 99
AGL------------ 90----- 99
DIS------------ 65----- 76
AUR------------ 75----- 82
LOG------------ 45----- 53
INT------------ 45----- 62
WIS----------- 35----- 50
INF------------ 45----- 61


Was thinking this type skill build, is it decent? I have like 109 mtps left if I do this---
3x armor
2x pf
2x thw
2x cman
2x dodge
1x perception
35 moc
like 20 hp (gos)
20 climb
20 swim




what ya think? be warned I know nothing of any class that swings a weapon as I have only played pures. ever.

*20 of the dodge, and 10 of the lockpicking is from enhancives

Works very well for me, if you want to go THW all you do is swap that and you are pretty well setup IMO

[Marl]

ok so how do I go about getting beserk is it the guild skill or the cman everyone uses?

also cmans...what are the best ones?

and is the warrior guild just a pain in the ass or is it worth it?

what else should I know about warriors right off the bat?

ps. for new chars is it max str/cons/dex/agi/log and tank the rest for best exp absorbtion/damage?

[Gelston]

Its both. Waste of CMan points though, since you can get essentially more ranks of it through the guild without using CMan points.

[Durgrimst]

Warrior guild is pretty easy and very good to get, especially for berserk and feint. Cmans are up to you but I prefer defensive ones personally.

Skill name Mnemonic Ranks
Specialization I wspec1 5
Weapon Bonding bonding 5
Combat Mobility mobility 2
Surge of Strength surge 3
Parry Mastery pmastery 1

[Marl]

so in reality I could use the cman beserk until I get good enough in the guild then retrain the cmans?

[Gelston]

Heres my shit

Specialization I wspec1 5
Weapon Bonding bonding 5
Combat Mobility mobility 2
Combat Toughness toughness 2
Surge of Strength surge 5

Evade Mastery emastery 1

This is for a dwarf warrior... BTW I just did this a couple weeks ago

You are a Master at Arms of the Warrior Guild.
You are current with your dues and must check in again sometime in the next 26 hours.
You currently have 372 ranks out of a possible 372 for your training.

You are a Master of Disarm Weapon.

You are a Master of Berserk.

You are a Master of Warrior Tricks.

You are a Master of Tackle.

You are a Master of War Cries.

You are a Master of Batter Barriers.

[LOL BRIELUS]

do you find survival useful for other than skinning?

[Gelston]

I slip a lot less on ice.

[Latrinsorm]

I think you are going to be very disappointed with your "kill lots of things at once" ability if you're used to playing pures, unless you played an empath I guess.

You'll be able to quickly assess gear relevant to your skills by level 40 or so.

You could get CMAN Berserk, but at low levels it's not really worth it and by level 20 you could have 50 ranks in Guild Berserk if you really felt like it.
