Alternate Advancements are the best way to tailor your character to meet your
game needs. Picking which AAs are useful and which you can live without can be
quite the daunting task so we are here to lend you a hand. I have scoured the
web, asked all my friends, and researched AA abilities into the wee hours of the
morning to bring you these AA recommended specs. Use them as is, or make changes
to suit your personal playstyle either way you get a solid foundation in which
to build your perfect Warrior spec.

Warriors are the perfect tanks. Full of brawn and yielding an opposing amount
of defensive skills, you'll have a hard time finding a better tank than a well
armored and specced Warrior. While these powerhouse classes can generally switch
between defense and offensive with a switch of gear and weapons, you can gain a
bit with a good tank versus damage spec which is what we have laid out for you
here. Give them a try, tweak to suit your own needs, and enjoy!

Berserkers

Berserker Line (100 pts)

On the Berserker tree, focus your points in the Bulking and Debilitating

line, so you can pretty much skip that, but you will need to put some points
into the Cyclone line to round everything out and to get the end line and
Sentinel's Fate abilities. Grab Gut Roar, Cyclone, Berserk end abilities. In SF,
put points into Aggravation, Shot of Adrenaline, Total Madness, and Insolent
Cry.

points into health and power. For the Fighter line, pick up Consummate Defender,
Rescue (always a handy ability), and Battle Hardening. For the Warrior line,
grab Rallying Cry, Aggressive Nature, Veteran's Shielding, and Cry of the
Warrior. In the Berserker line, max out Gibe, Unstoppable Will, Adrenaline Rush,
