was just curious if the warden class is any good at just DPSing? i have a guard already, well i have all the classes at 65 so im bored and wanted to try a warden out. i prefer to tank with my guard so i was just wondering if a warden could actually make a good dps class, thats all. and thanks
You will never replace the DPS classes for DPS.... however the warden can be very burst heavy. Having no cool downs on things means that if you can build a good solid dmg Roll you can fire off lots of high dmg skills very fast (This is more end game with the Mastaries)
The warden has been the most fun I have had so far. For little mobs ya the warden can DPS pretty much as fast as the other DPS classes... well close too. You have ambush to give you a good dmg lead... and with mastaries you can fire off 4 or 5 heavy hitting skills in 5-10 seconds. I have burned 4-6k end game trash in under 10 plenty of times. Once that big burst is done though you are waiting on 15 second master cool downs if you want to chain a bunch again.
However most of the time a dmg build warden is just bidding his time till he can burst again. lol
Imo just dps-ing is way too boring for a warden, we're just made to function as a small army. I'm not sure why you'd say you'd preffer to tank with your guard when you've not even played a warden yet. I have a RK and a minstrel and if I get asked to heal with RK I'll do it and I'm enjoying healing with both a lot, because each does it differently. Same here. Give it a try and don't set up your goals before you've even tried it out.

thanks for the advice, i am also curious about how many gambits does a warden finally get? i am at level 21 now and i see a ton already, how many more do i need to memorize? has anyone else had trouble remembering all of these?

You won't have trouble remembering them the more you play your warden. Most build off each other... Basic 3 bleed SP-SH-FS Power Attack... Mighty Blow SP-SH-FS-SP... Unerring Attack Sp-SH-FS-SP-SH and so on. Once you know the basic attack... adding one more to the pattern gives you the next step and one more gives you the next step. It will make more sense the more you use them. The leveling will slowly ramp you into them... and then give you one mastary class at a time... by the time you have 6 Mastary builders it will be second nature.
What's the best craft for a Warden?? (Sorry just had too )
Anything with Melee defense is a big primary for us, the rest really are just kinda meh however you want to roll really. Oh and you can probably get away with not slotting Zeal if you don't want to grind that trait out, it can be hard to find the deeds.
