Stats
| Stat | Target | Why |

| INT | 25 | Just enough for utility |
PvP warriors max STR + DEX. INT is sacrificed.

Stats Priority for PvP
| Stat | PvP Priority | Why |
|---|---|---|
| HP via STR | Critical | Survive mage spells |
| HCI / DCI on suit | Critical | Hit chance vs dodge |
| DI on weapon | High | Damage per swing |
| HP/Mana leech | High | Sustain in long fights |
| Stamina via DEX | High | Swing speed survives Stamina drain |
Weapon Cycling
PvP dexers commonly carry multiple weapons:
| Weapon | Use |
|---|---|
| Speed (Katana, Kryss) | Quick disruption |
| Damage (Long Sword, War Hammer) | Sustained DPS |
| Special (Hally, Polearm) | Range or stun |
| Cure-poison-friendly | Vs poisoners |
Switch weapons mid-fight based on the matchup.
Weaknesses
| Weakness | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Caster matchups | Resist 100 + LMC suit + close fast |
| Group fights vs mages | Stick with allies; don't engage solo |
| Mortal Strike (counter) | Pre-buff cure potions; have backup heals |
| Tamer with strong pet | Engage tamer first; ignore pet briefly |
How This Build Connects to Systems
| System | Connection |
|---|---|
| PvP | Primary content surface |
| Custom Guilds | Strongly recommended; PvP is team play |
| Bounty Hunting | Frequent target and hunter |
| Civic Justice | Murderer status applies to you |
| Fel Iron | Late-game gear path |
| Mortal Shock | Stack management is real |
Common Mistakes
- Going to Felucca solo at low skill. You'll die. Build skill in PvE first.
- Trying to PvP without bandages. Healing 100 + bandage spam is the foundation.
- Forgetting to buff before engaging. Pre-cast Bushido buffs when possible.
- No guild contacts. Solo PvPers lose to organized groups consistently.
- Ignoring Mortal Shock. Stack up after multiple deaths; find a Chirurgeon.
When to Respec
This template handles competitive PvP. Consider a respec when:
- You want to switch to a paladin variant (Chivalry instead of Bushido).
- You want to retire from PvP and pivot to PvE Warrior Build.
- You want to add Necromancy for combat self-heal.
