The Shock Axe is a PvP-oriented Warrior/Elementalist build, focusing on adrenaline spikes and disruption through the Elementalist skill Shock.

Equipment

 * Use full Gladiator's Armor with Stoneskin Gauntlets to raise your energy pool and extend your knockdown.
 * If creating a PvP only character for this build, choose a Vampiric PvP Axe of Fortitude and an Ebon PvP Axe of Fortitude, a Zealous PvP Axe of Fortitude, a shield with +30 Health and -20% Blind Duration, and a Furious PvP Spear of Fortitude.

Usage

 * Upon entering combat, build adrenaline on a target. Once you and any other warriors on your team have adrenaline, organize a spike on a suitable target.  Open your spike with Shock, and use Eviscerate quickly followed by Executioner's Strike.
 * Attempt to spike down low-health targets.
 * Don't stay on one character for too long, if you see them being enchanted with skills such as Guardian or Protective Spirit, switch targets.
 * Use Shock to counter any slow-casting spells and to snare kiters. Be careful, however, and don't just spam the button, as your limited energy reserves will quickly be greyed out from exhaustion.
 * Use Frenzy carefully to gain adrenaline, up your DPS, and to speed up your spikes.
 * Use Rush to reach your target if it is kiting and to cancel frenzy if you come under focused fire.
 * Use Healing Signet to keep your health up and to ease pressure off your monks.
 * Use your ranged weapon to build adrenaline before engaging and whenever you break off fighting.
 * Use your elemental weapon to bypass enemy warriors' extra defense against physical damage.

Variants

 * Grasping Earth can be taken as a snare in place of Healing Signet.
 * You can switch out either Healing Signet or Bull's Strike for "To the Limit!", Critical Chop or Distracting Blow.
 * Sprint or Enraging Charge can replace Rush.
 * Bull's Strike can be taken out for Protector's Strike.
