> 1. So I was wondering if there were ever any warrior that was sucessful at playing a defender. Bliscass did pretty well I think, spear hand to hand spec (there was a log of him fighting Dhaevor on the log board which he did extremelly well in). wasnt a great pker from memory but he did ok. Spear is pretty good defensively and impale is quite damaging... polearm/spear first, whip/hand to hand second > 3. for an average player on CF? would it be wise to play a defender? any rager dies alot.. I would sugest that perhaps a ranger or bard is a better choice for a first defender. being able to hide from your enemies is very useful, and bard songs are just cool. > 4. how is one really suppose to play defenders? put everyone else ahead of you.. whenever battle gets raided, be the first person back.
hand to hand is probably the goer for your second spec, as stun would come in very useful.
> 2. for warrior defenders what weapons specs would be good?
