Guild Wars 2 Warrior

A warrior can use 9 different weapons . He can combine any of the nine weapons available to him in 19 different ways. Those weapons are :

Main Hand: Sword, Axe, Mace

Offhand: Shield, Warhorn, Sword, Axe, Mace

Two-Handed: Greatsword, Hammer, Longbow, Rifle

Warriors can change between 2 different weapon sets during combat. Unfortunately or fortunately this can not happen too often because there is a cool down after every change.
Each weapon serves a different role, allowing the warrior to customize his play style. Each main hand weapon can be combined with all the other weapons or items included in the list above, except of course the two handed weapons.

Except the usual attack skills Warriors have a number of special skill types:

Stances are skills which can be turned on and off whenever the warrior desires to. During activation the stance consumes a small amount of energy and while it is on it keeps draining energy but the benefits worth the draining.

Chains are a set of 3 skills put together and they consume only one skill slot. This is really, really great news. This will ensure a better gameplay.

Banners give to the warrior and his allies offensive or defensive bonuses. A banner can be picked up and carried around the battlefield where the next conflict is taking place, because it affects only a small area, or it can be plugged in the ground so the warrior can keep fighting.

Shouts affect a large area and give various buffs to the warrior and his allies or debuff to the nearby enemies.

Charge Skills can be held down to power them up for more impressive attacks. Different levels of power can be released depending how long the skill was held down.

Some gaming experts advise young rpg gamers to play as warriors during their first steps because it is easier for them. I totally disagree on that idea. A bad warrior can kill his entire party just as easily as there would be no warrior at all. A bad warrior can destroy a good experience for everyone else. It takes time, dedication and deep understanding of the weapons, their roles and above all the skills to play effectively as a warrior. He/she has to know by heart what every skill does and why it must be used and where to put himself and who to attack during a fight. I could go on and on about this but I ll stop it here. Playing as a warrior it isnt easy and a lot of times can be frustrating.

I play as a warrior most of my gaming life and I can assure you that warriors can do wonders if someone knows how to use them right. Their heavy armor and their devastating skills can ruin someone's day. Their only weakness is their strength. Meaning, in order to hit something they have to go close to it or be able to see it right? So slowing or blinding or weakening spells can make a warrior worthless.
