Protection Warrior Good Question

[critrage]

Well i Was Wondering About How you can change Weapons in Combat and With Warrior
I Dont know is this A great Idea or what.
But Imo Good pro BiS Fc When you Run and Has attacked by a Meleers Should Wear Sharpened scarlet Kris With 15 + str Becouse You dont Proc Alot the crusader becouse it fast dagger right?
And your Running anyways u dont Fight anything you Run for your life

And When your fighting You should Change For Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver With Crusader ^^
Becouse its Slow Crusader Procs Alot better and It heals and gives str Bla Bla

The Point is You should use this setting For BiS ^^

When Real FC Use Dagger with resil and 15+ str
And When Killing Someone Use Parry Sword With Crusa ^^

I don't know whether this is a good idea or not, but here's a macro you can use to switch your MH weapon with 1 button.

/stopcasting
#showtooltip Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver
/equipslot [equipped:Sword] 16 Sharpened Scarlet Kris
/equipslot [equippedagger] 16 Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver

Macro I use for when ranged is on me and I am running away with the flag is:

#showtooltip Upgraded Dwarven Hand Cannon
/cast defensive stance
/equip Upgraded Dwarven Hand Cannon
/equip Sharpened Scarlet Kris

really simple and the reduction isnt really noticable but I like to think it helps

Crusader has a PPM based mechanic (proc per minute).

This means that no matter how fast or slow a weapon is, it will proc Crusader just as much times as any other weapon. If you're wondering, Crusader has a PPM of 2. So weapon speed does not matter when it comes down to crusader procs.

As for what you said about 15 str vs. Crusader, then yes it is probably better to use a 15 str weapon against melee classes (especially rogues with over 50% dodge).

Also note that switching weapons resets your swing timer.

Lifestealing viable? For imba self healing!

You have to consider, that Crusader does proc from Thunder Clap. Therefore I would always go with sader against melees chasing me while i keep backstrafing and hitting them + spaming tc. Against ranged dd the resilience is obviously most of the time better.
Idk, it depends totally on the situation you find yourself in, but switching weapons based on situation is good
Even tought it's not that essential as it was pre shattering, switching to Spirit weapon and shield while not in combat and so on ... ah good ol' days

How much does lifestealing heal on lvl 19?

If you don't use any abilities, then you are correct.

Lifestealing isn't viable. Crusader heals for more in PPM. i'd like to think about seeing a warrior with icy though, i know the proc is trash, but if you can force shadowstep/sprint it may be worth it, obviously i haven't tested.
