Greetings again, my question this time is how important is str and con. I am think of makeing a warrior allong with my Shaman. I need the secound to keep my focus. I made a Valkyn he has good qui and dex, my str and con are 60 each at frist. From what I have been reading the higher your dex and qui is the better at parry and other combat skill and weapon attack speed. But going with the Valkyn have I limited my warrior in low con and str ??

First of all warriors make excellent toys for PVE and RVR. If you plan to PVE alot the Valk will be ok. If you want to RVR Norse or Troll are better choices. Some people will come here and say that it really doesnt matter blah blah blah. But it does in some areas depending on spec and gear.

First of all your STR will determine your To Hit, Damage bonuses, and Weapon skill.

Con will no doubt be an increase in hitpoints and warriors get a nice 10% HP increase for their class.

Dex on a warrior really only helps with blocking and parrying. You'll have evade 1 IIRC which is a mix between DEX/QUICK.

Quick will allow you to swing faster and is capped at 250.

But understand this...unless you are going to be solo in rvr there is really not a reason to pick a race with higher DEX/QUICK at start. In group setups the most you will be doing is slam stun with shield and smack stuff with a nice big slow two handed weapon. If you plan on farming a lot of stuff then Kobbie or Valk might be better for the higher chance to block and parry. You will want to get Quick as high as possible but Str/Con are no doubt your bread and butter in PVP. And a Troll/Norse fill those two spots better than any. I have a RR5 Dwarf Warrior that can take a beating but I really dont hit as hard as a troll or norse. Fully buffed I have 364 STR, but at the same time I have a little over 3500 Hp. I do just fine with my block and parry rate in Pve and have been the shield bot for Malice and egg of youth many many times. I also do fair in Pvp, and the biggest reason is that I can live through alot of punishment. If I had to do my warrior over though I would pick Troll just for the shear STR for Pvp.

Also look at this..

If you made a Troll Warrior with +15 Str and +10 Con at start, by the time you reached level 50 he would have a BASE Str of 160 and Con of 103. After OC str of +101...261, after buffs of 64 (base) and 93 (Spec)is 418. Say you got Str 3 (adds 22 Str)..440. however some people say that STR damage caps at 400, But I dont know and its a topic of a different discussion anyway. And you'd have roughly 360+ Con, and if overcapped your HP about 3200-3400 by the time you are done. Sure your Dex/Quick would take a blow as troll, but in PvP its not going to matter that much.
