Best way to fight a chaos warrior as Battle Wizard?

[Victory Skeleton]

Famished Flames, Fire Sword/Beam Staff. It seems to take forever for me to take one down and I was wondering if there was a good trick to it.

To me using Bolt Staff with Volcanic Force works well enough. Takes 2 headshots on Legend, not sure how many on Cata.

1. Dagger and stagger. For example, one ulti+4 strong atk. Or 2 Ulti+2 strong atk.
2. Crow bill spam 7, 8 hits.
3. If you want to use fire sword, try corus staff and stagger him.
4. Otherwise ignore him but keep him burning all the time. Let your teammates handle it. If you do True Solo, that weapon combo is quite hard to handle armor.

[NoFuFu]

With that combo just double heavy with fire sword

[Captain-Hugo]

Crowbill can opens most armored enemies, it just not good at cleaving though crowds

[Sticky Mick]

Dagger, crowbill, bolt staff.

Sister of the Thorn

Anything that headshots(Bolt staff,crowbill,dagger), Conflag staff has 100% stagger on minimal secondary attack, it can even stop their normal attacks.

[Felixinius]

Reminder that crowbill is a literal Tincan opener. Put Atk Sp 5% or Crit Ch 5% with Swift Slaying

Your build is just trash vs chaos warriors. Thats the weakness of the build. So if you dont wanna change your build you gotta trust your teammates to get rid of super armor for you.

Weaken him with the charged beamstaff clicks, then once he closes try to keep him on fire. If you switch to the flail, you can stagger him (and nearby buddies) with charged primary attacks and still set him on fire. You will probably take longer to kill him than your teammates though.

You can do it with one bolt with the right build if you get a crit. Unless I am thinking of legend.

[Cacomistle]

Nope, not with that build.

Just kill everything else, then the chaos warrior is very easy to take down. You can pretty much perma stagger one with flamesword.

Also you can hold the beam on their head but I still don't think it does a lot of damage.

If you want to kill CW fast, run bolt staff. If you want to kill them at ok speed, run dagger or coruscation (coruscation can actually kill them decently fast if you run famished spam cast and don't place the flame under them. It has a really weird interaction if you do that where it has half damage stacks, but they refresh each other and are affected by famished flames, so you can get like 1.5x damage or so that way. Bolt is still faster for small numbers of CW).

U looking 4 piercing damage.
Nothing wrong with the Fire Sword / the 3th light is a nice Stab!
Put crit and speed on it. dash if U have to. cw's are utter slow.
Fully charged attacks is gud to gain passive healing from mobs.

As youre talking bout passive health ( I guess thp) I guess you are talking meele weapons.
None of Sienna's meele weapon have a full charge effect. Its only a question bout timing. Minimal charges on sienna meele are the exact same as "fully" charged.

I just stagger them repeatedly with flame sword/burnout until someone can finish them off. Honestly tho by that point if I’m the only one dealing with CWs, they’re dead from burn damage by the time my time rolls around.
