Ok, so I have 0 experience with warriors, but recently decided I to make one. I want to make him for bossing because I've never really had a bossing fit character. So, I was hoping you guys could let me know which sort of warrior is most wanted in boss runs. I was thinking Hero, but yeah, idk. Thanks for the help

Depends. 1. Which boss/bosses? 2. Which role do you want to play... primary damage-dealer or secondary damage-dealer with a support skill? It astounds me that people actually think elemental and non-elemental bosses work the same way.

From my random surfing of the Warrior forums and other Maple forums: A Hero should win in damage versus a Paladin on a non-elementally weak boss that a Paladin can take advantage of... A Paladin will win if it can use its elemental advantage on bosses... Heroes are great on mobs of 3-4 yes? while Dark Knights are better on mobs of 5-6? Dark Knights are desperately needed when in party boss runs due to their Hyper Body skill which will save the lives of non-warrior classes... All in all, I believe Heroes and Paladins are both welcomed often for being primary damage dealers while Dark Knights deal some less damage while occasionally having to use Hyper Body... EDIT: Although there are a bunch of rumors about an upcoming "Rebalancing Patch" that would make Paladins stronger in terms of damage on bosses than Heroes because of the ability to stack charges I think...so, probably a huge Paladin bandwagon will appear if this does happen... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally, I feel that you should choose the class that fits more of your personal taste. If you don't feel like providing HB every now and then, than you should be a Paladin or Hero. They are both very strong classes and you should choose the fighting style you personally prefer. Paladins have a little more strategy to them apparently since you have to build up charges and use different tactics of fighting on different opponents. Heroes just run through enemies constantly sustaining their Advanced Combo and spamming Brandish, which is quite an interesting skill in my opinion. I chose to go the Hero route but yeah, consider fighting style thoroughly before making your decision. =]

Most likely he is talking about Horntail Zakum Pianus Pap PB even and for sure a Hero would do better to those without an elemental weakness that a Paladin could take advantage of. Also in order to get to Hero you'll have to train and well that'll be another paragraph or two explaining everything so go to the stickys and look at Warrior Comparison helps a lot

Okay heres the deal. 1. If you are a damage dealer and have friends tat want you in their runs often then Hero, 2. If the bosses you want to fight are elemental then Pally, 3. If you are someone that dosnt have alot of friends who are high lvled and want runs then try Drk because you get accepted alot even in low levels because of HB (everyone loves you)!

Yeah, but only for Holy, Lightning, or Fire. Not Ice. Heroes are better on Neutral~Elemental Resistant/Immune mobs of 1-3, while Paladins are better on Non-Elemental Resistant/Immune mobs of 4-6. Dark Knights are in the middle for both mob sizes. Depending on the boss, it might not be desperately needed, but hyper body always has it's place, being one of the most useful buffs out there. The main thing is connections. The Re-Balancing will make Paladins better on Neutral~Elemental Weak 1v1, more because of a Blast and charge % increase than charge staking.
