The woes of a paper Warrior. Advice required!

[BrutalForceX-]

Greetings fellow AL players. I opened this topic to gain some insight into what I possibly might be doing wrong.

I am relatively new to AL and have chosen to walk down the path of the Warrior. I aim to be a PvE/Elite map build. However I find myself being trampled on when I enter DC. My hp goes down extremely quickly and I would like to know if there is something I am not doing right.

*I am currently at lvl 17 and have devoted all my stat points to Str.
My skill points as follows;
Skyward - 3/5 (dmg and stun upgrade)
Chest splitter - 3/5 (knockback and interrupt upgrades)
Juggernaut - 4/5 (will max)
Horn of renew - 4/5 (will max)
Vengeful Blood - 1/5 (will max)
Might - 1/5 (will max)

My current stats;
Str - 189
Hp - 2196
Armor - 451
Dodge - *3.12%

I have listed only the stats that I feel might be linked to my inability to tank dmg. While my stats don't look that bad at lvl 17, it doesn't fare too well on the battlefield.

I would greatly appreciate individuals who could shed some light on what I'm doing wrong as I plan to play this long term.

Stop standing in Poison.

I'm not. I have quite some experience in the mmo scene. I take 70-80 dmg per hit. Was wondering if maxing Might first would remedy the problem.

good gear solves almost everything, but if ur lvling up dont buy good gear. jug really helps for lowering dmg. might just increases hp and dmg, when jug when charged lowers dmg taken and increases health and dmg as well

Stat is good, but you should take windmill for easy PVE

On a more serious note, Your skills are too spread out to be of any real use at your current level. If you can respec, I would put more points in to your VB instead of Juggernaut. The cool down of Jugg is too long, but you will need jugg later on in elites, but you can worry about that later. If you can't respec now, focus your next 3-4 points in to VB and you should see a dramatic improvement in your survivability.

I think Windmill is too important not to have in any warrior build, so pick either CS or SS and add Windmill as your 2nd attack.

Worry about Passives once you pass lvl 21 and most of your skills are pretty much set.

Good luck!

Can I ask what maps you are running & the level of the highest players in your party on average? A party scales up to the highest level in the party, and often times, even 1-2 levels makes a huge difference.
