I am soloing perilous like many others very easily. I am standing in mobs and my shield is max. On perilous the shield charges up crazy, cuz the guys take longer to kill.

Upgraded versions of spirit blade, fade step(walk), and fade cloak. These 3 are your core. 4th skil can be chain lightning. I prefer upgraded dispel though since it handles the flying ice mage easily.

When you start up like any newb AW that gets Pull of the abyss you suffer from long cooldowns etc.

Fade step and fade cloak have very low cooldown because you are spamming spirit blade and autos.

Fade cloak destroys the guys that block too much by knocking em down. Totally OP burst. The actual cooldown in game is practically like  7 seconds, because of the cooldown reduction while attacking. Fade cloak sustained DPS is insane because it does 1000% dmg, you do the math, 1000/7 secs cooldown = 150% dmg. Considering you are always using it, clear times are insane. All that dmg is AoE and has knockdown effect and gives invulnerability frames. OP. Reaver sucks because royal guards block 50% of the time.

Fade cloak can be used vs demon commander so = get out of jail free card. and you will have full shield when he pops up anyway.

Fade step > self explanatory here. Crazy 300% dmg on such low cooldown and AoE too. Compare all mages cooldown like immolate etc. Real cooldown is even lower not the suggested 12, more like 7 seconds.

Upgraded spirit blade can reflect the insane ranged archer burst dmg. So they get instagibbed. On perilous or even threatening the guy(spirit with sword and grapple hook)) guarding the chest can one shot the reaver etc. Arcane warrior can soak it all and reflect the ranged spirit version(shoots green missiles) attack and one shot him back. That's like 10000%(ten thousand plus dps). Totally broken.

Keep on playing Arcane warrior because you can promote willpower stat and get even stronger. Constitution sucks and so does cunning, What if you wanted to play elementalist for fun? Well you can main Arcane warrior and keep promoting to ridiculous willpower levels.

Pull of the abyss is not even necessary,  its only for low skilled players.


Everything about the arcane warrior is so optimised. Not a single second is wasted.

Warrior/s combat roll sucks, when fade cloak and fade step both far superior. It's like arrow vs the flash, or kung fu human guy vs superhuman.

Basically high dps, high rate of spammage of fade cloak for invincibility while knocking everything down while AoEing everything, and super tank, and anti burst with the free shield upon death.(lol at templar) 

I am soloing perilous with horrendous gear, 75 dps staff. etc, horrible base 55 armor and I am fighting out in the Open in zone 5/5, anywhere anytime.

 

TLDR, obnoxious OP arcane warrior. Totally fearless and forgiving to play.
Dominating like a boss.

agreed. it's too easy with AW, no challenge

[gay_wardens]

stopped reading here. since when is crit chance and ranged defense a bad stat? and you must be trolling about constitution

 

Have fun with your broken, skill-less class that's not even a real arcane warrior. Was so much cooler when you could have the same weapons as a warrior. By the way the chest boss with grapple is called a Revenant.

I knew better when I saw the TC name, but I went into the thread anyway...I got exactly what I expected.

I personally think cunning is (at the moment) better than willpower, due to the fact that ranged just hurts the most for now and that quite a few classes get a cooldown reduction every time they crit.

[Bobbysad]

You can stop reading, but the game is finished. There's no reason for me to play. Every other class is  suboptimal and clear times are much longer.

Are you serious when you say you want to promote your champion 100 times to ensure the stat is meaningful? Do you even play perilous? Have you even finished it? The burst dmg received  is insane in perilous, so 1 constitution for like what 0.5% melee defence and tiny HP. so no I am not going to play 400 hours or whatever just to promote 100 times, even then ,you still get one shotted by the chest spirit and boss nukes. When I have already finished the perilous mode countless times. 

Low intelligence gay_warden troll. As I said, its not debatable, the game has been finished like many others like me countless times on perilous.

Oh, look, it's another eDong thread disguised as a  "AW is op, solo perilous standing on mobs with shield max, pls nerf" thread.

Have you heard of this wonderful thing called variety? Im sorry but if the only thing you can play well is the AW then you are a bad player. I find it hilarious that these AW players actually think they are acheiving something.

It's still the fastest way to get willpower. That, you can't disagree with

[Catastrophy]

My personal opinion is that AW should stumble into an Eluvian. I'd happily stand by and smash the mirror with my dwarf. Don't ask - alchemist needs glass for flasks or so.

[holdenagincourt]

the guy(spirit with sword and grapple hook)) guarding the chest

 

Let's rename one of the most notorious and iconic enemies in the entire series to "the guy."

Fuckin' revenant. Don't know how often I had to reload the friggin' battles with my Aeducan grill dorf at Orzammar.

[Pee Jae]

I like the AW, but why do I want to play him ALL the time? I really don't. I'd rather level all of my characters to 20 the "hard" way. Also, burn out. Who wants that?

[Storm_Changer]

 

TLDR; obnoxious OP, arcane warrior. Totally fearless propaganda forgiving to play.
Dominating like a boss.
 

I fixed it for you. 

[knownastherat]

Knowing AW from DAO I did not even bother to roll one in single nor in MP. Reinventing wheel much? ;)

[gravemind_z]

Pull of the Abyss is for low skilled players?

 

How about it's for people who prefer to group play?

 

I build my AW specifically for support because I prefer group play to soloing.  I assure you Reavers, Katari, Templars, Elementalist, Necros and Keepers will REALLY appreciate that you spec'd for it but that's right, you only care about yourself.

 

I usually spec Spirit Blade, Pull of the Abyss, Stonefist and Veilstrike.  

 

Is this the most potent build? Nope, but your warriors will love you for it.  I don't know how many times I get people telling me they like playing with my AW because of how I spec him.  There are multiple great ways to spec ALL classes.

 

Party composition will ALWAYS be > player composition

 

imo....

[steamcamel]

We get it ...

 

[knownastherat]

 We scream trolls! but without them the community would be substantially less dynamic :)

 

Pull of the Abyss? That's my fav spot for Fire Mine. Interestingly enough, its probably easier to aim and time the Fire Mine than the Abyss.

[Stinja]

I don't understand that at all, what is a "TC name"?

Also i can't work out if this is a disguised nerf thread, or an ePeen thread - anyone?

You say that like  the best tank class and build is not a good addition to a group.

 

perilous demon commander without fade step or fade cloak is sad days:(

Technically, it´s a dumb thread.

This is what awaits the Arcane Warrior:

Nice troll thread. And if you really run your AW like that, enjoy being useless to your team.

Only sensible thing you said in your post.

[TeamLexana]

Pull of the Abyss on AW or GTFO of my lobby.

[TheThirdRace]

Please! Just stop... Those examples are really bad insight. You use all the extremes to reach a conclusion that doesn't work  in normal gameplay.

 

First and foremost, enemies scale with the number of players. Thus, soloing is by far "easier" for strong characters than with a group of 4.

 

Second, the Arcane Warrior benefits from having all the aggro. The more melee enemies you have in front of you, the more survivable you are. If you don't have most of the aggro, you'll die much more easily.

 

Third, enemies positioning is different when you're soloing than when you're in a team. When soloing they'll tend to be a short distance from you and packed together, when in a team they'll tend to be all over the place. Enemies will also come to you if you're soloing, which means you don't need to run all over the place to kill them which in turn lower the time where you'd be vulnerable. Thus, it's harder to play in a team than in solo because of the way enemies move.

 

I'm really tired to see people say they can solo Perilous with the Arcane Warrior. We get it, it's very strong. Now can you get thru your thick skull that these examples are taking advantage of all the game mechanics at the same time, it's the best case scenario. Introduce 3 teammates and you'll begin to die because the odds aren't all stacked against the enemies now. As I said, insight...
