Warrior Cata PvE Template

[Melachi]

Want to make a PvE temp for my warrior, and came up with this. Things Im happy about are, all 99% chain, hits, cata bonuses, AF (when it starts working). Things I dont like, the heat resist being so low.

The reason im using that Axe, is because it has a Heal proc. Cba to get that 10% block shield. Yeah I know, I say that but then I use Band of Shadow, well im just using that because I have one in vault, and I never need to repair it.

A question I have is, what Reactive procs do work in PvE on a shield? Haste? AF?

Im no PvE-guru, what mobs have body damage? You seem to want to cap it pretty bad since you have 18 resist in your SC.

Good question! oO

While making it for some reason I was thinking I had to cap body, thinking about it now, its probably a pretty rare damage type in PvE. Is the Dragons stun body?

 

[Vell]

I was told it's spirit, but could easily be wrong

 

[belse]

dont forget %evade, and skip melee speed if needed. your objective is not to deal out damage, but have aggro and survive.

 

[Chimaira]

Add more hits etc. srew resists

 

[Zardoz]

I use these cata items in my warrs PvE suit to get the following bonuses:

10% Block
10% Parry
10% Defensive
9% Evade

Then just pick whatever high util items you have adding some str/con cap and SC to fit, capping str/con/dex/qui, hits, melee resists and skills. Which i managed to do with 99% crafted and 5pt overcharge.

You can farm most with a warrior plus bot. Check the market explorer first, you will be able to buys most for low prices, at least on my server. Only the shield and to some extent the belt/sash is realy a pain to get:

- Jekeel's Necklace of Defense => yellow con, Jekeel in Deadlands. I have spotted him along the east wall.
- Luminary's Charm of Deflection => yellow con, Luminary (i think he's called that) in Underground forrest. Most Underground frorrest mobs are in the center region, the spider just south of the tp stone and luminary usually spawns just east from teh spider.
- Gebbo's Slippery Sash => red con in Nyttenheim, have to kill quite a few red and low purples to get him.. unless you jump into his pit.
- Ring of Kinship => quest reward
- Ring of the Seven Storms => TOA quest originating in Aerus
- Golnar's Wristguard of Contagion => Large yellow con Gargoyle (Golnar) in Deadlands follow the east wall north, hard to miss him if he's up.
- Jekeel's Bracelet of Acuity => same as necklace above
- Subterrestial Chain Boots => Bloaded Spider (red/low purple)in underground forrest. Has app. 4 low level adds and spawns ALOT of spider baby's when killed.
- Arcanium Sentient Tower Shield => low purple Vanjorndor in Nyttenheim, pretty rare drop sad He spawns in the southernmost cave and wanders from there to the maincave. he summons 'pet' desease clouds that has a nasty 250 str/con debuff and a dot. Cave shammies and warlocks can dot kite him solo with some care.

This is mine,

Kort Doesnt report PVE bonuses in report but if i remember correctly its

Block 10%
Evade 9%
Parry 8%
Defensive 8%

 

[Twinky]

ok, if i make a pve temp with 10 bonuses on block,parry evade and defense, cap melee resist and cold.. as rr 7L5 and mob4 moparry4, would i be almoust unkillable in pve ?

or is there a cap.. etc..

regards pve gimp

No, but you can handle some pretty though mobs just you and a BB, will take forever to kill them though

 

[Twinky]

hehe ok

Yours uses Battler which is pretty nice for its 10% to hit proc (or to not miss ;x ) but I dont think I could be bothered getting my warrior battler, having said that I know im planing to use SoM

I made a better temp using that, but then thought could i really be bothered trying to farm that, or buy it, so i tried to work in the block bonuses throught other items. But its a nice temp

 

[Zardoz]

Yeah I got real lucky, droped on like 20th kill or smt

Having a PvE suit for the warr does make so much difference you wont be dissapointed.

Took me 50+ kills i think

 

[Twinky]

who does it drop off ? the shield

 

[Zardoz]

who does it drop off ? the shield

Vandjorndor in Nytthiem, low purp but sometimes he has 4-6 yellow adds and procs a nasty dot/disease cloud so make sure you keep the seers away from it, its a rare drop tho (rare with a capital R A R E)

 

[Vell]

Sorry to bump a bit of an old thread, but I'm having some trouble with Vanjorndor - not killing him, but getting him to drop, anything at all. I've killed him around 15-20 times, and each time, all he's dropped is a bag of coins, nothing else at all. Is that normal? Am I just super-unlucky, or am i doing something wrong?

Super unlucky I'd guess, When I tried to get shield I got lots of crap drops - took me like 2 days played to get it and 70-80 kills, so keep trying

 

[Vell]

I've started to get some drops now... lots of different helms
Hopefully one day the shield will drop...

 

[Rhayn]

Stop farming my mob!

 

[Chr Thornhoj]

what does defensive do? and is it PvE only?

 

[Vell]

Defensive increases the mobs chance to outright miss you.

5 kills and it dropped

 

[Vell]

Stop farming my mob!

It's MY mob! Shoo shoo!
