Specializing in the art of war, Warriors (WAR) are masters of all aspects in melee combat. Warriors, the most versatile melee job found across Vana'diel, have the ability to goad foes in battle and can equip almost all types of weapons and armor available in the game. That being said, warriors are highly gear (and food) dependent, and will benefit from having multiple sets of gear (and food) to effectively fit the tank or damage dealing role in parties. Their mastery of axe and great axe typically sees them shift to a damage dealer role as their class advances. Those who begin their adventure as a Warrior will find themselves wielding an Onion Great Axe .

Horizon Changes

• Starts the game with an Onion Greataxe instead of an Onion Sword.
• Minor changes to Artifact Armor.
• Significant changes to the relic weapon Ragnarok.
• Provoke now receives an additional 250 cumulative enmity (CE) when Defender is active and Warrior is set as main job. This number is reduced to +180 for (/WAR).
• Defender provides a -25% enmity loss reduction when taking damage (works with /WAR subjob). Additionally gives a +10% chance to block with a shield, but for WAR main job only.
  It also adds 250 cumulative enmity (CE) to provoke, when Warrior is set as main job. This number is reduced to +180 for (/WAR).
