AudreyGillz.9017 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I just recently got a lvl 80 warrior, and I need help with my build! I want to play with a sword/axe and a great sword! I also am unsure which crafting specialties I should do so that I can create good weapons and armor for myself! Please help me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I would recommend running double axe or even mace+axe (more CC / defiance bar damage) instead of sword+axe , since greatsword is a power weapon which means any weapon swap should also be a power weapon.Most players run discipline (for the faster recharge on weapon swap , Axe mastery) + strength (the highlight being peak performance + Forceful Greatsword) + tactics (leg specialist + Empower Allies or Warrior's Cunning) unless they are running an elite spec.If you're not playing instanced content the build specifics aren't as particularly important as gear. You want to run berserker stat gear (power precision ferocity) or marauder gear (power precision , ferocity vitality).Regardless ,weaponsmith is the crafting profession you would want.

Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Sword/axe is fine as a weapon set on a power build especially in PvE. Sword 2 ->axe 4->axe 5 is a great combo and sword 3 will hit very hard.In general in pve you go full Berserker, but you can mix in Marauder stats as needed to help survive. Vampirism runes will keep your health up as you kill mobs.Go str/discipline/any for traits.Str: top or bot/mid/midDisc: mid/bot/top or botThe last trait line could be any of the following:Def: mid/top/anyTact: top/bot/bot for meta and events mid for general playBerserker: top/top/topSpellbreaker: top/top or mid/mid or bot.Arms: mid/mid or bot/top or mid.Utilities depend on the content, but mending, bulls charge, for great justice, shack it off generally work everywhere. Signet of Rage, Rampage, or Headbutt if Berserker for elite.Sword, especially in PvE, is a hybrid weapon. It can function well as either power or condi. Unfortunately it's trait is entirely condi focused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
