Incomplete

This guide is currently incomplete. If a god is missing I either haven't tested builds on them yet or they're unviable in solo lane. I will continue to work on this guide, I just don't know everything yet.

Achilles

Start - Warrior's Axe, Chalice of Healing, 2 Healing Potions, Boots

You shouldn't be building damage in Solo.

What should I be using im using warrior physical type

Mostly defences, follow any of Didacted's builds for the Warrior's in this guide, or because he hasn't added all gods yet, you can check out my one here.

The reason you build defences on Warrior's is because the majority of them have higher base damage on their abilities, which means hitting them more often has a better impact than having power to hit harder, having protection allows you to deal that high damage without dying.

DAMN NICE BUILDS

(37) |

Do you think the proc is worth the pick up? In my testing with it, it felt very 'meh' in my opinion.

Also some choices you have as core interest me, mostly and . Sorry for putting it bluntly but what is so good about those items compared to other tank items? They don't have very high prots and don't provide any HP, the higher power is nice but these are Warriors that don't exactly have Assassin ability scaling other than Achilles.
Edit: I was skimming through the patch notes for something else and noticed the buff for tanks, I don't know how I didn't notice it before but I'm still confused on the .

What about the lack of ? What has shifted it away from being a core item for you? I understand the lack of as it's been nerfed, I still like it and it can definitely be substituted for as you have but other than the pick up on some gods I don't see Glad Shield being pushed out of the meta.

Also I know Achilles AA cancels are good but are they good enough to warrant instead of something like ? I haven't tested it myself.

is really strong. It’s also the only starter you can really upgrade unless you go Manikin’s so you don’t fall off late. You heal so much with it in fights if you can proc it on whichever tank is trying to peel for their squishy.

For Shifters its buff has made it bloated to the point where it’s worth getting over Glad Shield on more bruiser solos.

Ancile too is a bruiser item, it doesn’t have much defense on it but the gods you’re getting it on like Wukong and Camazotz want a lot of power and don’t need much defense to do their job. It looks weird on Cu Chu but I’ve tested it a lot on him and it feels much better over Talisman or Pestilence. He works really well with power.

On tanky characters who don’t go Shifters, I’ve been going Mystical and it feels much better because just 2 or 3 ticks of it does more than Glad Shield ever would to one person in team fights. Also since the solo meta is Manikin’s or Axe every game, bluestone on Wukong, Mystical does a lot more damage to them than it would last season since Manikin’s and Bluestone don’t have magical prots.

I think or is god dependent. autos a lot when he dives backliners because he weaves them in but his combo also leaves people with about 1/4 or so of their health left so you auto to finish the job. Heartseeker procs also dont do as much as they did last season because Sentinel’s Embrace (the best support starter) helps mitigate it.

I'll keep these in mind as I do more testing and updating. I used to like Shifter's on Wukong before because it stacks with his passive but because it wasn't very good I'd never build it. However with the buff I'm liking it again. Thanks.

Is bluestone bad? I notice on a lot of these builds bluestone was replaced with warriors axe

(6) |

Bluestone is good for clear but since it has no prots it makes really vulnerable to early ganks. Bluestone also doesn’t do much to help you trade with the other solo since Axe and Manikin’s mitigate it with their damage taken reduction and prots. If you get it on anyone who isn’t Wukong or Achilles, you’ll want to sell it late for a defense item. At that point of the game you’re much weaker than someone who just upgraded their starter into .

(37) |

I'm not the guide author but I don't think it's that is bad, but its upgrades aren't very good, is niche to hybrid ability/AA warriors but it gets outclassed by / .

on the other hand just doesn't do enough damage, I had it in a lot of my theory builds but after testing I think there's only 3 or 4 warrior's I think it's worthwhile on.

Although isn't as strong in the laning phase it's upgrades are pretty nice. I asked the guide author what his thoughts on are because I don't think it is amazing however hero's axe when you're building a lot of HP can be really useful to your team in a fight. Hence why he might get rid of bluestone for that late game presence.
