Back to Classes.
Warriors are front-line fighters, the backbone of any party under assault. They rely on melee and ranged weapons, supplemented by powerful special abilities that draw from deep reserves of stamina.
Warrior are the only class able to learn how to fight with Weapon and Shield and Two Handed Weapons. They also gain more Damage over time than any other class.
Warrior Characters can be of any race and can start, depending on the choice of race as Human Noble, Dwarf Commoner, Dwarf Noble, Dalish Elf or City Elf.
Each origin has impact on the starting skills and talents of the character.
Race has a minor impact on the character's starting attributes.
Each character starts with attribute scores of 10 and is granted additional bonuses based on the table below.
| Strength | Dexterity | Willpower | Magic | Cunning | Constitution | Attack | Defense | Health | Stamina | DamageBonus | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | +4 | +3 | +0 | +0 | +0 | +3 | 60 | 45 | 100 | 100 | 0 |
| Each Level | +1 | +6 | +5 | +0.4 |
Strength and Dexterity are important for a warrior as they govern his ability to successfully hit and inflict damage. Constitution is also a good bet as any point spent on it increases the Warriors maximum health.
Putting spare points into Willpower every now and then will ensure the warrior has enough stamina to execute special attacks in combat.
Each character starts with 2 Talents and 2 Skills preallocated based on choice of class, race and origin.
