But i dont have Vengeance or Martyr yet so those tactics are not in yet.

Good guide. it is very helpful. i have try your build and it works fine; however, the only problem i have with is that you have to use Anders and Merrill. Those two characters are my top 3 hated characters list in this game.

Any Update as far as Armor and Weapons goes for the New Patch? For both 2h and SnS.

Legacy New Items

Edge of Night, Fadeshear, {Desemona's Blade(up to the end of Act 2)} for S/S

Extra Credit Reading Material :
I wouldn't say to copy these builds as the new patch disabled some specific functions, but the knowledge put forth will help you understand how it works.  Everything I have linked below is compatible with Arelex's build to some degree.

S&S spirit build, ARW solo

Generic +X% elemental dmg gear and its impact on elemental weapon builds

S&S Experiment: Early Elemental Setup

Templar/Reaver: That's The Spirit!

Solo Elemental Warrior

Nevermind. I forgot I had cleared my cache before I had put the game back in after a couple months.

I was learning it, then used Maker's Sigh and it wasn't subtracting an extra 10%. Then I thought to save the game with the ability learned and used a Maker's Sigh and lo and behond -10% critical chance.

So, I apologize. I was just mixed up.

Maybe I missed something but in your 1.03 S&S build you pick Aura of Pain on level 18, after picking Blood Frenzy on level 17, but without picking Devour. How is that possible?

by end game...
blood frenzy + sacrificial frenzy + aura of pain + fell poison = godlike
if u have fervor, barrage, prime lyrium rune, haste,,, u will be regenerating in full health in no time!
and if u r playing on hard or nightmare mode with the added friendly fire damage then this setup is godlike broken!

By far the best character class build in the game.

Berserk + Cleave + Haste + Barrage + Fervor = epic devastation.  I get just enough constitution to wear the armors I want and enough strength to use the weapons I want.  Get lots of willpower to amp up the stamina pool, and Berserk becomes truly devastating.  You start hitting for the sort of numbers a rogue would get with just as much, if not more, speed in some cases.

In all honesty, your enemies should suffer a moral penalty for fighting you once you've spec'd as a Reaver/Berserker. I have to believe someone with both skillsets would be a terrifying sight, worthy to cause lots of paints soiling.

Hey, love your guide :).

Just have a quick question with regard to the SnS vs 2H. You say that the SnS eventually becomes more powerful, why do you think that? I'm just asking cause this will be the first warrior I build and from the videos I've seen most people tend to use the 2H for big damage.

Thanks! Posted Image

most people tend to use 2h because you look like a badass

sns has:

better skills
better CCCs (the patch ruined staggers, so 2h can't spread the love around for a mage to chain lightning, leaving SnS with their godlike CCCs off DISORIENT)
better weapons
better single target damage
arguably better aoe damage
better vs bosses

sns is just...better. period. the patch was the worst god damn thing to happen to 2h warriors, and i'm still bitter about them ruining the game like they did.

for the uninitiated:

Post-Patch SnS Warrior - 20-Second Ancient Rock Wraith Kill (Nightmare)

post-patch, there's zero reason to play a 2h warrior. absolutely none.

Thank you for the info! Seriously AreleX your guides are beastly! :devil: I already played your nuker mage and now im going the berserk/reaver path :happy:

Just one or two final questions...you dont use templar in any of your builds is there a particular reason or?
And I've been reading the guide above and I see mainly two handed weapons in the guide, any suggestions for one handed weapons/shields or maybe a link to where i may find this info?
Thanks loads  :)

Templar's a control spec. Killing stuff is generally more efficient and less dangerous than trying to control it.

templar is a bad spec, especially post-patch

as i have said many times, dragon age 2 is a zero-sum game. hit hard enough, hit fast enough, you win. why silence an enemy when you can kill it?

the only real reason to take templar is if you're doing some rp nonsense. otherwise, it has zero advantages over the hugely buffed berserker, or even the nerfed reaver.

the best 1h swords are:

glandivalis
saartereth
the edge of night (which is what i was using in the above ARW vid, i just reskinned it because it's ugly as sin)
desdemona's blade

itemization is also better for sns warriors. 2h doesn't get elemental weapons until act 3, whereas sns, if you have all the dlc, has 2 elemental weapons right off the bat: the edge of night and desdemona's. TEoN you can use the whole game, and desdemoda's can be obtained in act 1 and used all the way up to act 3.
