2h warrior or 1h for dps?

Sword and board is the way to go in the gulch in most situations. Axe is the way to go against most clothies with a shield bash macro, and glacial stone or night reaver against armored targets. Snb against other warriors/pallies and rogues in most situations. Hunters as well. SnB when your on O in a premade to help against peels and so u can use arctic buckler with 8fr when they have a D Mage. SF is still very useful for a warrior and probably it's best owner
 
Hmm, well good thing I asked cause I was going to put firey on that fangdizzle. Can't think of anything else I need to ask. Ahh ahhh what boa gear would I need, cause im seeing a lot of differnt shit doin down, some still rock blackened chest, the plate boa chest, leather boa chest, what shoulder? Pvp ones or pve? Boa bow or bronze darts? I kinda wanna get all the boa shit righjt away so I can xfer right as soon as im done. And kinda wanna know what boe fgear I would need so I can get it on my mains server as well
 
PvE shoulders, chest depends on whether or not you want to use hit pots/do arenas. Leather chest for arenas/no hit pot farming, and plate for WSG with pots. I prefer bronze darts but having a dot means that you can somewhat get away with the BoA bow. I would suggest picking up PvE leather and mail chest and shoulders to have more hit options as well as the BoA bow.
 
Off all the races, i preferred orc; liked being different myself as not many orc rolling around.

But BoA wise, get the triumph BoA (PvE), i roll with the Leather ones purely for the hit so i can maximise on the satchel loot.

- Shadowfang, i always preferred Lifestealing due to the fact if crusader doesnt proc its like your using a non-enchanted sword, where lifestealing could be doing damage + healing. However if crusader does proc you hit like a truck.

- Personally i dont like relying on RNG so i go lifestealing since it procs alot.



so it is worth wasting on a warrior

Its far from a waste, its probably the best investment you could have, if your a serious twinker.

I have seen a level 34 lock with it....thats a waste.
 
Yeah that's the only thing im kinda unsure of is lifesteal and sader. I mean I know both proc a lot with a warrior because of spamstrings and rends. I was leaning more towards lifestealing but sader will faceroll when it goes BOOOOOOM!!! ALL UP IN YO FACE BEYOCH!!! I have 2 fangs I could put both enchants on each but that would probable be stupid. I might decide later to make a paludumbass or something or xfer my rogue so he can duel wield to look sexy. Kinda just wanna roll my face in hot coffee right now.
 
Really I prefer LS on a fang cause that LOLWFTPWN burst is better suited to the 2h, also sader will proc more off of instant attacks with a slower wep, 3.9 secs is as slow as the bracket gets.



edit: However if you plan on premading a lot I would just say sader on your fang because you will be SnBing it almost all the time on offense and sader will provide the burst you need to drop FCs
 
Obviously for max DPS, a 2-h with sader on. Anything regarding a 1-h(note what the headline of the topic was) would be a retarded reply. I've not actually tested the GS Fiery dps vs BoA Crux, but I do know critting them 400~ bursts sure is a treat :)

Was hard doing DPS in this one, due to being kited the living shit out of by 2 mages and 3 hunters.... but non-the less, top alliance DPS. Notice, "Kaerani" is a draenei sword and board warrior. Just a little hint :p

Lol yeah thats true, almost 2 hitting my mage. Although for a 2h, you will need to pick a good race to balance out the max dps on BaR. Ceinia has a perfect build for the 2h BaR, because of the dual agm. Gear can be more stat oriented hence providing max dps.

If your rolling a 2h, make sure your not sacrificing TOO much stam, because it just results in you being a "glass cannon" so to speak. but thats IMO.

Personally I feel like I'm rolling with too much stamina when running with a healer.



I'd be happy to sacrifice 70 hp for 3.5% crit, and 150 hp for GotN, and land myself on 1350~ hp with a healer and 2x HoTs and 30% crit. Just costs too much money and I cba doing it :p
 
I personally think that 1h + shield + crusader, then swap with BaR with +15 str or something.

Each time you swap weapon the default swing timer resets. Meaning when swapping to BaR, you lose 3.5 sec of attack. Swapping weapons often won't be truely effective until you actually get an instant attack (heroic strike in Cata?) as a warrior.



Only reason Im carrying a Sword and Board is for:

  • Rogues popping evasion -> Shield Block
  • Going defensively - retreating taking less dmg to melee and in def stance
  • Getting focus nuked while a healer need to bring me up



All other scenarios, I'm pretty much in a 'wee lez hf phun n nuke shizzle' mode.
 
On my warrior I have came in first on dmg done plenty of times with just SnB (SF with LS + Deadskull with shield spike). That shield spike is great for dps, though only if melee are focusing you of course, and revenge hits like a truck.



One strategy I use in WSG is go in with my 2hd until crusader procs, switch to SnB, and get massive revenge hits. I've gotten revenge crits that were well over 500.
