Early Game Guide - Warrior
This is the Early Game guide for Warrior. It contains basic information for all builds and then some specific builds to help you start!
Foundations
These are the foundations to all the builds!
Gear
The Gear you need for these builds is Counterstrike and/or Crit
Counterstrike is more important
Prayer
You want 5x Global Counter DMG at your highest available rarity
Souls
PVP:
ATK > HP > Counter DMG ≈ Crit DMG > Crit Res
Can also get DEF later on
PVE:
Counter DMG ≈ Crit DMG ≈ ATK
Combo DMG once its pink for Boss DMG
——
Pink Soul Order:
ATK ≈ Combo DMG (Lower if PVE not important) > DEF > HP
Avians
Avians:
Firefly → I would use this mainly, it’s a generally good Avian for PVP and PVE
Lunar Sprite → This can work later with DEF for PVP
———
Affixes (PVP):
Reflect Counter & Rage Bonus → These are main affixes, I recommend getting these first
No Speeding (or Speed Disruption), Barrel Dodge → I would aim for these next
———
Affixes (PVE):
Reflect Counter & Rage Bonus → These are main affixes, I recommend getting these first
Rage Slash + Against the Strong → I would aim for these next
Runes
There is not much change between PVP and PVE for these
For both I would go for 4x Crit DMG and 2x Crit Res (Saves you getting extras)
But you can get x2 Counter DMG for PVE or Glass Cannon PVP if you wish
On each rune you want Pink Global Counter DMG
For the secondaries, the left side will always be the same 3
However on the right they can change;
Top Right (Rune 4) → Counter DMG
Middle Right (Rune 5) → Combo/Counter/Pal DMG Res all work (PVP) or Batk DMG Res (PVE)
I would prioritise Pal for PVP
Bottom Right (Rune 6) → Crit DMG
Rune positions are most important. Having Pink runes on 1, 4, 5 and 6 with the above secondaries is important
Divining
Life Path
Your main obejective here will be Counterstrike and Crit Rate as you want to get past 100% for players ignores later on
——
World Path
For the next path your foucs will be Counterstrik/Crit Rate to keep overcapping
I would also get Pierce as it is great for your damage in PVE and PVP
And then you can look at defensive stuff like Ignores Counter
Guardian
The main ones Early Game are the Energy Regen SPD ones so I recommend getting these
Remold Priorities -> Counterstrike/Crit Rate to push up to and above 100%
Orange
Green
Blue
Purple
Resource Allocation
Where to put your resources in Tech / Feathers / Sacred Tree?
Simple… Attack!!!
As you get towards mid game I would drift into HP/DEF as well
