How Warrior fits a setup
Warrior is the Strength class associated with maces and shields. Rolling Slam introduces its heavy melee identity, and the source card highlights slams, heavy stun, armour and warcries. These are related tools rather than interchangeable descriptions: a slam describes an attack, stun describes an enemy state, and armour is part of the character's defence. A guide should explain how its chosen skills connect those tools.
Titan, Warbringer and Smith of Kitava are the listed ascendancies. Their names alone do not establish that one is best for every mace setup. Compare the relevant passives with your preferred attack and the defensive equipment the guide expects. Boneshatter is a useful companion page because its source text explicitly connects a strike with enemies Primed for Stun and a shockwave. That requirement matters when evaluating a proposed combination with another attack. A shield also changes the equipment comparison: check the skill's weapon requirement before buying or crafting a replacement mace. The Warrior record begins at Early Access version 0.1.0, so its existence is separate from the classes announced for 1.0. Use the class table to compare attribute starts and the build hub to compare activity, budget and version before following a showcase.
