Anyhow I've thought of it, what I've to do is simply DW the lowers and 2H the highers, changin frostfire while DW and tele while 2H, keeping my STR and DEX more or less at the same level, am I right ?

That would work Grevier. There's nothing keeping you from switching weapons for different targets. You shouldn't have any points in STR though. Magic replaces STR for your purposes if you're using an arcane warrior. (ignore me if you're talking about rogues or warriors)

I have the other mage in my party set to keep Heroic Offense up on my AW all the time, seems to work out quite nicely.

Simple. 99 Elfroot are in infinite supply and very cheap from the dalish elf camp. You can turn them in for a decent amount of xp in the player camp. That was basically my last three levels.

well the build is going fine and he has plenty of survivability and good damage.  Only thing I am having trouble with is aggro sometimes.  What i will do is toss out spells with high threat like crushing prison and force field and toss some arcane bolts mid fight..a sort of gish style...but if i do lose aggro....i cant taunt haha...maybe its better to keep a true warrior tank with taunt in the group and ill just dps, utility with paralyze etc and in general survive and be impossible to kill.

I never played as an arcane warrior tank, I played more of the mixed fighter/caster style. If you wear the Medium Draconscale Armor, without any buffs up you have -10.0% fatigue, so you can throw out some nasty spell combos before going into melee. (my favorite is the paralyze+repulsion glyph combo)



I always had allistair or shale around as the "tank", my ability to absorb damage was just to solo tough targets like Ogres or emissaries, while the rest of the party rounded up the other targets and slaughtered them. Being able to lock down any one tough target and butcher it is very useful.

[ANDY5151]

agreed which is what im doing. The fact that you have 0 taunts sucks so this is working out REALLY well.

The AW I had with Combat Magic on (with the AW talent chain maxed) a 20-25 Dex, a 45+ Magic score,running Miasma, with Flaming and TK weapons, Spellweaver and slotted dagger, hit most of the time. Nowhere near the hit rate of a dedicated DPS-er, but I easily did more damage than Oghren with a 2H greateaxe.

And even without (uber/broken) Shimmering Shield on, Oghren or Allistair were far more fragile.
