Metin2 Warrior Guide: Teachings, Skills, Weapons and Equipment

The Warrior is a melee class in Metin2. He fights with swords or two-handed weapons and wears class-specific armour. Depending on the teaching, his playstyle differs: Body Warriors focus more on offensive melee skills and self-enhancement, Mental Warriors on mental skills and defensive enhancement.

Summary: The Warrior has two teachings: Body and Mental. Body Warriors use skills such as Three-Way Cut, Battle Frenzy, Rush, Sword Whirl, Sword Aura and Will to Live. Mental Warriors use skills such as Pierce, Stomp, Sword Strike, Violent Strike, Strong Body and Sword Circle. Warriors use swords and two-handed weapons. Equipment includes Warrior armour, sockets, spirit stones, bonuses and upgrades.

What is the Warrior?

The Warrior is designed for direct melee combat. He uses melee, weapons and class-specific armour.

Which skills are available depends on the chosen teaching. Warriors can specialise in Body or Mental.

The Warrior's Teachings

Teaching Focus
Body offensive melee skills and self-enhancement
Mental mental skills and defensive enhancement

The two teachings have different skills and should be considered separately.

Body Warrior

The Body Warrior combines melee with offensive skills and self-enhancement. The teaching contains direct attack skills as well as skills that support your own combat.

Skill Classification
Three-Way Cut offensive Body skill
Battle Frenzy supportive Body skill for attack and movement speed
Rush offensive Body skill
Sword Whirl offensive Body skill
Sword Aura enhancing Body skill
Will to Live supplementary Body skill
Sword Whirl Boost supplementary skill to Sword Whirl

Mental Warrior

The Mental Warrior is more defensive than the Body Warrior. The teaching contains mental skills and Strong Body as a defensive skill.

Skill Classification
Pierce offensive Mental skill
Stomp offensive Mental skill
Sword Strike offensive Mental skill
Violent Strike offensive Mental skill
Strong Body defensive Mental skill
Sword Circle offensive Mental skill
Pierce Boost supplementary skill to Pierce

Champion-Level Skill

Earthquake is a Champion-Level skill of the Warrior and should be considered separately from the basic skills of the Body and Mental teachings.

Teaching and Skill Levels

From level 5 onwards, a teaching can be chosen. After that, skill points are invested in the skills of the chosen direction.

Skills develop over several levels:

  • Normal
  • Master
  • Grand Master
  • Perfect Master

In addition, there are supplementary skills such as counter skills and boost skills. These belong to further character development.

Warrior Weapons

Warriors use swords and two-handed weapons. With Warrior weapons, teaching, level range, base values, upgrade level, sockets and possible bonuses count.

Weapon Type Significance
Swords Warrior weapons for melee combat
Two-handed weapons Warrior weapons with different combat orientation

When choosing a weapon, the interaction of weapon, skills, spirit stones, bonuses and upgrade level counts.

Warrior Armour

Warriors wear their own class-specific armour. This armour increases defence and is bound to specific level ranges.

Important properties of Warrior armour are:

  • required level
  • defence value
  • movement speed
  • number of sockets
  • fixed additional values
  • possible additional bonuses
  • upgrade level
  • possible further development

Earlier armour has lower requirements and fewer customisation options. Higher armour has stronger base values, more sockets and sometimes fixed additional values.

Warrior Helmets

Warriors can wear their own class-specific helmets. These helmets differ from helmets of other classes mainly in name, appearance and origin. The basic properties are comparable across classes for helmets of the same level. An exception is the bonus properties of level 80 helmets. Helmets cannot be improved with ore or spirit stones.

Important Warrior helmets are:

Level Warrior Helmet Classification
1 Traditional Helmet early Warrior helmet with defence
21 Iron Helmet Warrior helmet for lower level ranges
41 Ghost Mask Gorget Warrior helmet with higher defence value
60 Fear Mask Gorget Warrior helmet with blocking
80 Steel Hood Warrior helmet with unconsciousness
96 War Master Helmet higher-level Warrior helmet with extended upgrade levels
100 Dragon Helmet Warrior helmet with attack value and magical attack value
100 Dragoon Helmet Warrior helmet with resistance to skills
120 Snake Helmet higher-level Warrior helmet with random additional bonus

With Warrior helmets, the required level, defence value, fixed additional values, possible bonuses and upgrade level are most important. Unlike weapons and armour, helmets have no spirit stone sockets. Therefore, they are not improved via spirit stones, but through their base values, fixed properties, bonuses and upgrades.

Sockets and Spirit Stones

Warrior weapons and Warrior armour can have sockets. Matching spirit stones can be inserted into these sockets.

Level Range of Item Sockets
up to level 20 1 socket
level 25 to 42 2 sockets
from level 45 3 sockets

Spirit stones improve the item by the respective value of the stone. The spirit stone must match the equipment type.

When inserting a spirit stone, the attempt can fail. Then a stone fragment remains in the socket. A stone fragment gives no active bonus and blocks the socket. The socket is not fully usable again until the stone fragment has been removed.

Bonuses on Warrior Equipment

In addition to base values, sockets and spirit stones, equipment pieces can have additional bonuses. These bonuses are a separate improvement level.

Bonus Type Examples
Weapon Defence Sword Defence, Two-handed Defence, Dagger Defence, Bell Defence, Fan Defence
Resistances Arrow Resistance, Magic Resistance, Lightning Resistance, Wind Resistance, Fire Resistance
Character Values Max HP, Max MP
Absorption Damage is absorbed from HP, Damage is absorbed from MP
Combat Values Attack Value, Spell Speed
Defensive Effects Chance to reflect melee hits, defence chance against claws

Fixed values of an item and additional bonuses are different properties. An item can have its own fixed values and additionally carry further bonuses.

Upgrade and Development

Warrior equipment can be expanded through upgrade levels. Depending on the item, certain values increase.

With higher equipment pieces, an existing item can also serve as the basis for a new item. There are two different processes:

  • An existing item is upgraded.
  • An existing item is further developed into a new item.

Depending on the process, bonuses and spirit stones can be handled differently. Therefore, before major upgrades, you should check which item is being used, what materials are needed, and what happens to existing bonuses or spirit stones.

Important Basics for Warriors

With the Warrior, the interaction of several areas counts:

  • chosen teaching
  • matching skills
  • swords or two-handed weapons
  • matching Warrior armour
  • level requirements
  • sockets and spirit stones
  • fixed values and additional bonuses
  • upgrade level of the equipment

A Warrior is not determined by a single skill or a single equipment value alone. The combination of class, teaching, skills and equipment is important.
