Talk:Dwarven Battle Stance

I think you could probably use this with Flurry and get a Mesmer to use the elite Psychic Instability to keep someone completely conflustered. Nakriel 15:48, 20 July 2006 (CDT)

This + something like Flurry for crazy anti-maging? I haven't played Warrior primary enough to know all the +speed skills, probably something better for it than Flurry. --Nunix 21:53, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * IWAY is the only skill you can use with this, since this is a stance and every other attack speed increase is a stance. And IWAY isn't exactly a good choice.  As a result, no one uses this.  --Fyren 23:27, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I'll try this with Renewing Smash so the stance can always be applied and see if I can do any real harm to casters. --roofle 17:07, 22 May 2006 (CDT)

This has some very limited use. Knockdowns are a much better way to keep a caster out of the action but in some cases, you can't do knockdowns, say against Dolyak Masters. Therefore, dwarven battle stance could be used against them to provide 6 interrupts over 10 seconds. The elite Skull Crack could be used for this purpose too but it requires quick timing on the part of the player compared to the simple activation of Dwarven Battle Stance.

In my experience, this is a wholly worthless skill and is sorely undeserving of its "Elite" status. I would be very grateful to see a serious and effective build which relies upon Dwarven Battle Stance, especially if that build is viable in PVP. I just don't see how this will ever be superior to Skull Crack and IAS. Thehobbit 23:39, 10 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Actually the skill says "target for is interrupted" which means any action short of moving will be stopped. This would interrupt all skills (including signants) and even your opponents next attack. Considering that this can be renewed with stance renewal and reapplied (cheap cost) it seems to be worthy of elite status to me. Mystic 23:43, 22 August 2006 (CDT)
