Warden Specs

[Novo]

yeah thanks a lot mate, good advise!

 

[Aeicaan]

what i've heard wardens are getting grp cure disease and cure mezz etc (toa artifact) so a battle warden isnt worth it imo.. 10 blades/blunt is enough cuz ur job is to heal and interrupt, not to kill in grps that is

 

[Xanthian]

Like I said, for balanced groups certain specs are required..

 

[Novo]

somebody tell me where to put my fucking spec points

NAh, thanks for the advice guys im gonna do a lot of research into warden abilities before i tie myself down, i got another 20 lvls yet before i really have to decide! Warden seem like a really intresting class i just have to decide if i really wanna play when toa comes out... looks nice.. but i dont have the time to be uber leet TOA power lvler...

 

[Aeicaan]

Again: there are no jobs in RvR. Not for any class.

so a cc chars job isnt to cc? a healing chars job isnt to heal?
ofc everyone got a 'job' in daoc

if a warden with one spec is rr11, he must be doing something right so use stephs spec xD

 

[Coccas]

If a bard wants to spec regrowth and blunts, or a druid wants to spec nurture and nature, then they can still be useful in a group. And I'd love to get em into a group and see how they can make themselves useful.

that's the spirit
play to have fun and try out different things, not to be best, uberest or whatever

Problem is that in the group rvr set-up, groups expect certin basic things from a class.

Druids have 2-3 recognised specs for example.

You join a random rvr group as a warden and are unable to cast a 6-sec bubble or magic resists, you watch how fast you are kicked out.

A warden without nurture spec is pointless, wardens weapon spec or regrowth spec just isnt strong enough to make them group viable (in fact a warden with no nurture spec would be hopeless in pve, let alone rvr).

A druid specced nurture/nature is 10x as effective in rvr as a warden with no nurture spec because druids spec lines are decently balanced, wardens arent.

A Warden with less than 33 reg would not be of any major use to a BALANCED rvr group.

Without trying to sound leetist, gimp specs are ok for random groups, but balanced groups require a certain spec.

A Wardens job in rvr is to interupt casters/healers and also provide good heals as back up to the druid.
They are not intended to do major damage, so therefore no more than 6?7 (however much taunt is) is needed.
49 nurt is a must for resists ofc, 33 reg or 42 is upto you,
I went 33 reg as I wanted my Warden for PvE purposes and possibly to solo (heh what a joke), using the 4.4spd Claw from Galla, the damage is acceptable, but certainly not comparable to any tank.

just one thing i don't want to be the perfect warden with the perfect rvr set up i want to play it as i enjoy it people know i'm not the healer i am back up healer back up tank can help in both fields people don't moan about bards with 16 regrowth so why wardens


mine is nurture 49
regrowth 16
blunts 40
parry 9
1 point left over

u don't get it do u if i wanted to be a healer i'd would have made a druid
if i wanted to be a tank hero/blademaster

i don't want to be either i like to be bubble guy who can hit a bit help with resists help with healing ect ect ect

just make sure ur base heals are stable (with +to spec)
and i guess it can work as long ur playstyle fit with the rest of the group

i have a similar spec nur 49, blu 34, reg 17, parry 22 with 1 point left over,
just a query why did you go to 40 in blunts?
when i looked at the high weapon spec it was either go for 34 or 39 and put the rest in parry. not saying that yours is a bad spec just wondering how you came to this.

just for the style you get after parring works gret pve not really used rvr yet normally assist train on your ass don't get time to use it

 

[Thorinn]

When i made my warden, peeps had alot of ideas how i should spec her.
I dident listen, but chosed the best all around spec i think there is.

49 Nurt, 33 Reg, 25 Blades, 14 Parry.

Im now r6l8 and still i like the spec

My advice will be that u gather some information urself, and then chose spec from what u want ur warden to be

would be nice to see how we both duel but i don't have a spare 4 hours to do it

LOL i agree

i dont understand why you think warden duels take so long as a warden hit extremly fast.. i have done duels vs s/s heroes that took waaaay longer.. anyhows.. my 6 points in blunt will rock you all.. detaunt -> all
