Skill Usage
One of the main beginner skills for a Warrior, and continues to be an effective ability when combined with certain effects at higher levels. It consumes a moderate amount of Fury by 30, making it easily useable within two to three melee swings.
Bite is automatically learned at level 1 by default for Warriors and cannot be removed by a skill reset.
For DPS Warriors, the general consensus is to take advantage of the buff that it provides at Lv. 5 or higher; a 5% overall damage boost to your skills for 20 seconds (can be stacked up to five times for a maximum amount of 25%). Towards tanking builds, the focus of the skill is on Improved Bite, a passive skill that increases the hate generation when using Bite. In addition, Improved Bite has a leech effect, allowing you to recover some of the damage you deal as health.
Notes
- The buff from Bite can stack to a maximum of five times, lasting 20 seconds at max. The duration of the buff can be refreshed by reusing the skill again before it expires.
- Bite is locked towards neutral elemental damage, therefore it is inapplicable to any elemental gloves that would change the elemental damage type of your skills.
- Bite unlike many other skills is unaffected by your Attack stat, relying entirely on the base damage of the skill, therefore you do not deal as much damage. This is due to the fact that you are using your maw to attack and not with claws, so your damage is not increased.
