I've seen posts like these on forums for other games, and as well as acting as a good place to pat yourself on the back for gaining a level, it's also a good help resource for less advanced players to see good more advanced builds.

I'll start. I'll be editing this post a few times to add character info.

Karkas Throtl - just leveled to 13th level Warrior.

I Still have 1 skill point remaining. I am going to respec my skills and remove extra recovery, whirlwind, Resilience and Dungeoneering. I'm still playing around with this character but have always been sword and shield . Once I unlocked advanced skills I started to dish out some serious damage. I'm also going to mess around with trait points and get more Agl because I'm welding light weapons. Having a blast playing this incredible game!

Just wondering that a lot warriors dont use the charge skill, wich is one of the best skills. You really should try maxed charge...
