Ten Ton Hammer - Taking MMO Gamers to the Next Level!

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!

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