![[GUIDE] Warrior/Cleric](https://www.elitepvpers.com/forum/iconimages/sro-guides-templates/guide-warrior-cleric_ltr.gif){kind=small}
I. Introduction
I.1. What is a warrior ?
Warrior is a physical defense and attack built char. It is the most powerful close range class. It's power is based on 3 weapons switchs : Onehand + Shield : defensive, kb, dull but small damage, allows you to recover HP. Twohand Sword : offensive weapon set, slow attacking, little kb, kd, Madening for damage dealing, but HP sacrifice. Dual Axes : fast attacks, chains, bleed and stun.
I.2. Who is it meant to ?
Deal damage, switch defensive and recover if you are cleric. You can tank and deal insane damage with your 2H
Build + :
- Good tank
- Loads of HP
- Insane damages
- Very needed in share partys
Build - :
- Low MP
- Slow (if you wear HA. You can also buy drugs but sucks)
- Low mag defense.
II. How to build your warrior
II.1. Distribution Str/Int
Euros don't have imbues, so just rush for full STR, the lack of MP will be balanced with INT and MP on your stuff
These are the lv100 stats, gives you a small idea for lv60 ^^' :
II.2. Equipement
The equipement kinda depends of the server meta.
Robe : if the server is axed on chinese, or just loads of mag. attack players. It will balance your lack of mag defense due to full STR. Good for MP
Light Armor : between mag and phy def, it'll be useful against mag and phy attackers, I would choose it first. Good for MP.
Heavy Armor : kinda sucks, you're slow and it's only useful against other warriors or rogues. Can be useful in PvE tho. You will realy lack MP.

II.4. What subclass ?
There's a Warrior/Rogue thread so I'm not going to talk about it ^^
Cleric : You can play Warrior or Cleric in partys, you can recover HP and buff in PvP. Heals allows you to play with 2H and Dual axes. You won't be called names ^^
Warlock : Only able to play Warrior in partys (sometimes warlock if the spot is good for GP), very good in PvP : Dot Dot Debuff and then just rape with 1H/Shield or just oneshot with madening
III. Warrior's way
III.1. Solo
Exp with 2H : Sprint assault, madening and slash to finish the mob if needed.
Exp with Dual Axes : Sprint assault, chain and finish.
I find dual axes less boring then spaming madening. Just choose your best weapons. If you're warlock I don't recommend you to use warlock skills, only for giant.
III.2. Party
OneHand/Shield. Buff wizzis and tank with PQ and Fences, use screens if things turn bad. If the aggro guy sucks you can help him since the mobs will hit you only once and then go on the cleric tank (because of heals).
III.3. PVP and Job
Get the best of each of your switches.
1h/S : Block nukes, KB and Dull.
2h: KB, KD, Madening to hit hard.
Dual Axes: Bleed, Stun, fast dps.
IV. Cleric Sublass
IV.1 Gear
If you have cleric as subclass, you can choose the gear you want. I would still advise you to pick Light Armor, even if it's ugly.
It will raise your mag. def, runspeed. It'll be better for your MP aswell.
Robe is an other option, but I'm not really fan of it. You can give it a shot if the meta is realy on magic.
