A big hello!

A big hello from the new smallest (gnome) zerker on guk! Im looking forward to not having to shout at the tank for grinding too slowly :smileytongue:

Im only a lvl 20 baby at the mo but I had some questions. Why is it that the offensive stance we get at lvl 4 isnt upgraded untill lvl 22? Grrr devs.

I have a couple of serious questions also, I was wondering about the benefits of dw versus a 2 hander. Ive gone with the biggest axe I could find at the mo (my poor little gnome arms can hardly hold it) but would, say, dw axes be the better choice for xp grouping? As far as upgrading spells should I make sure that taunts and group buffs are always ad3 and better, or are the debuff attacks more important? Im thinking that Im a tank so I should get the taunts and whatnot, but the little rat brig (breakfast) in me likes doing dps.

PS I love axes

personally i used dw until i got to level50 because they give more constant dps than 2h does i only switched to a 2h at 50 because of rampage/destruction and for open wounds later on :smileyvery-happy:

I have not used my 2 hander since my nice DW's. As far as Adept 3's go, I wouldn't blow the coin fer all that....wait til you hit 30 or 40, unless you are very rich. Most people blitz through the 20-30 very fast to really invest all too much. But let your finances dictate. Plus, carry a Sword and Board for tanking real tough mobs.

Edit...I saw your question regarding upgrading taunts.....those I would keep as high as you can get em.:smileywink:

Coolies - i like the idea of dw tanking (and yes I have a picnic table in my bag for tricky stuff).

Thanks for the responses - Ill throw some upgrades at my taunts, now I just need to decide which pony to buy :smileytongue:
