Hi there, not trying to cut into lentz str guide for warriors. His guide is a very good guide for those who like to do lots of damage and kill faster. Recently though alot of players have been complaining that they can't kill more than 3-4 enemies before they have to med, (sometimes Less 1-2). I have noticed that with my build there has been no change. Without buffs I can easily kill 6-7 mobs in a row without having to med. If I have only one on me at a time I can easily clear 9-10 mobs without a med.

My build is a Balanced build (a build that balances your stats so you can easily dispatch an enemy), I am SM 2 and I currently level just as fast as many of the warriors out there with str builds. Your probably asking yourself, how can you balance stats? Do you keep your stats the same? The answer is no, if you have the same str dex and con your build is not a balanced one. You need more on some stats than other's. You need str for stronger attacks and higher def. You need dex for faster attacks, better attack rate and better dodge. You need Con for higher HP and HP regeneration. You need ESS for higher vitality and chi def. You need Wis for higher Chi Dodge.

Ok so as far as ESS and Wis is concerned you only need enough to use your relics(10 for RC relics; 12 for FD relics and 14 for EC relics), I would not go any higher than that. Now for Strength, You need a decent amount of str so you can actually damage your opponent, so I would recommend adding about 40% str to your build. Dex works for dodging and your attack rate (being able to hit your opponent) and it adds more criticals so I would add 35% to this. Your Con is important too and most people neglect this, without Con you can't last very long against multiple oppenents so I would add 25% to this.

Now let's talk about relics. Relics can add to your stats, you just have to keep up on your Good Karma or Bad Karma whichever relic you choose to use. Good Karma relics give you an equal amount for 2 stats on each relic (+4 for RC +5 for FD and +6 for EC), now I use all 5 relics including the wisdom relic. Wisdom is good for pvp because you can dodge some of the nuker's attacks. If you don't pvp try using a lower level str or dex relic, or even con. Just use whichever stat that you think you need the most. Bad Karma relics are a little different, They give you + to 1 stat and - to another but, the + stat us much higher than the - stat (+9, -1 for RC, +14, -2 for FD and +15, -3 for EC relics). Now don't be fooled by the higher + stat on these. if you are wearing all 5 bad karma relics the outcome will be the same as if you were wearing all 5 good karma relics. Ofcoarse this changes if you decide to use a lower level bad karma relic in place of the wisdom relic. The other thing you'll want to have is the +2 to all stats relic, if you have all 5 relics and the +2 to all equipped you will have +10, +12 or +14 depending on the level of the relics your using.

Elixirs, there are several level's of elixirs, currently 1-6. If you can try to get them as quickly as you can, it really helps.

Thanks for listening, happy hunting!!
