DescriptionThose who choose to follow the path of the Warrior have chosen a profession dedicated to up close and personal violence (and they love every minute of it). The Warrior is the quintessential hack-and-slash fantasy hero: tough, strong, and an expert at wielding melee weapons on the battlefield (in other words, what many MMO gamers call 'the tank'). Warriors are masters of the axe, the sword, and the hammer; though most choose to focus on one weapon over the others. With their heavier armor and higher hit points, Warriors can soak up the abuse that other characters in the group can't handle, and give other professions in the party such as Warriors or Elementalists the distance needed to make use of ranged abilities. Many Warrior skills are powered by adrenaline, a special power pool generated as the Warrior fights, instead of Energy. This means the Warrior, already a profession with low maximum Energy, will still have plenty of skills to use even when Energy runs out. A Warrior's tactical skills are often defensive in nature and help the Warrior both protect and lead his troops. Strength is the Warrior's primary attribute; greater Strength lets the Warrior improve all Strength-based skills and more readily pierce an opponent's armor.AttributesStrength (Primary)Strength, available only to Warrior primaries, increases the chance to pierce an opponent's armor.
