Lore

 

Warwick counted himself amongst the most powerful and revered men in his home city-state of Zaun.  Over the course of his infamous career as an alchemist, Warwick won many honors for his craft, not the least of which was a lucrative offer for service in the Noxian military during their campaigns against Ionia.  Sequestered in his labs far from the front lines, Warwick and his apprentice Singed toiled relentlessly to manufacture all manner of appalling concoctions for the Noxian army.  So potent was his art that even the greatest of Ionia's healers - under the leadership of the Starchild Soraka - struggled to combat the poisons and chemical weapons generated by his despicable mind.  Warwick's reign of terror grew so horrific that his very name became a curse in the eyes of his Ionian foes, and they began referring to him only as ''the Deathmaker.''

 

But even one under the protection of the Noxian High Command is not wholly beyond the reach of retribution.  For as Soraka strode across the myriad of death and destruction left in the wake of one of Warwick's chemical attacks, her heart finally gave way.  She called down the wrath of the cosmos on Warwick, wishing that his form should mirror the cruelty in his heart - a curse that would come at the price of her aspiring divinity.  Within his laboratory, a terrible thirst took hold over Warwick. As his apprentice looked on in horror, Warwick threw open the doors to his bastion and sprinted off toward parts unknown, a bloodcurdling howling marking his passage. He had become a werewolf; a wild, murderous beast.  Today, the Blood Hunter fights for Noxus within the League of Legends... thankful of the curse that his now-mortal enemy bestowed upon him.

 

''The rage of the beast now complements his predatory spirit.'' -- Singed, the Mad Chemist, upon witnessing his master's transformation

 

Why Lanewick?

 

Warwick is (or was) known for having incredible sustain in the jungle. You couldn't kill him because he just healed to much and he always had full or near full health while jungling. However, Warwick (and Udyr) can take their amazing jungle sustain out of the Jungle and into the lane where they become unstoppable beasts. Generally the only issue they have with laning is mana which is why it is crucial you pick up a large mana pool or decent mana regen at some point.

 

Don't try and duo lane warwick though. You'll run oom from all the harass, your sustain during early laning levels really relies on being able to 1v1. Sometimes you can 1v2 but it really depends on the enemy and unless the enemy team has no jungler try and solo top as much as possible. Going 1v2 won't hurt your lane but it will hurt your team because you're not shutting down the enemy like you normally should.

Early/Mid Game

 

Early Game (Laning Phase) generally you should play passively unless against a real pushover (Malzahar, Yi, Etc). Focus on farming until level 6-7 then start harassing hardcore with Q. Harass them down to 500 or lower then combo them (Q + Ult + Ignite + Q) for easy kills. Don't be to aggressive to early though, if your heal is to weak you take more harass from creeps.

 

Try and keep your lane warded at all times (should be top lane) and always focus on last hitting. Pay attention to other lanes though. If you get a chance go and gank Midlane with your ultimate. If you're having difficulty in lane just focus on farming and wait for jungle ganks, once you get one you'll be able to take advantage.

 

If you do take advantage of your lane opponent go ahead and zone them (but make sure you have a ward). The cs they lose will really hurt their entire team for Mid-game. You don't need to zone them out of experience but rather just last hitting. Also remember, dying to deny them 20 creeps ain't worth it. Just don't die. Always pay attention to the map and call mia, if not for you, for your team.

 

Mid Game (Post Laning Phase, Pre Full Build Phase) is mostly about lane control, dragon control, buff control, and baron control. Keep wards up on Dragon/Baron at all times and if possible also the enemy buffs. Pay attention for any chance you get to gank an enemy. Generally try and stay as a team until you get a chance to gank. Keep lanes pushed but don't risk tower-diving. Take Dragon and Enemy Buffs whenever possible. If you kill an enemy near baron take it before they can respawn.

 

This phase is all about establishing map control. Whoever wins this phase generally wins the game. This phase is over as soon as one team has taken enough of an advantage over the other team to be able to push freely without fear. If you start Mid Game behind the enemy team this is your chance to make up for it with good teamwork. Stay as a team AT ALL TIMES.

 

If you do run into a fair 5v5 fight make sure to fight on your terms and not theirs. You initiate where you want to fight and do not let them initiate onto you. Focus the most threatening opponent first always in order to confirm you win the fight. Just play smart and you'll come out of the Mid Game Phase as the victor and most likely win the game from there.

 

 

 

Late Game/Team fights

 

Late Game is where you should shine the most. You should be quite unkillable by now and the fact the enemy team let the game last this long means this is where you win. Because you're unstoppable you take control of dragon and baron and both jungles. Stay as a team and you initiate fights onto their squishiest champion. You deal enough damage now you are enough of a threat for the enemy team to actually focus you, even though it will get them nowhere.

 

Basically, by this late in the game you either won or you lost. Try and catch anyone out of position and dive if you must (if you're gonna dive try and do it when they're not all together). If they're diving your team just go for their highest damage and let your team deal with the rest. The only reason this late in the game you should be dying is if you were dumb and bought MBR + Wit's End instead of replacing MBR with enough tanky not to die.

 

Team Fights are fun as Lanewick. You're the tank but not the initiator. Although if needed you can initiate. When either your team initiates or the enemy team does then you go ahead and jump onto the enemies most threatening player. You can initiate but it's not optimal. If their low chase for the kill, if not go for the next person in line. Once the team fight is over use your E and tanky-ness to chase any survivors and finish them off. Push a tower if you can/take baron/dragon.

 

Generally, just focus the squishiest enemy. If there is a Kat/Fiddle on the enemy team you can save your ultimate for when they ult to shut them down. Try to avoid getting to close to the rest of your team if the enemy team has an amumu/alistar so the CC is split up. But most importantly, just tank for your team. Take the CC and the shots if you can.

 

 

Ganking

 

Even when laning as Warwick you still should gank. If you get a break in lane go mid and attempt a gank. If you have some armor feel free to run in behind the enemy turret or even dive if they're low enough. Otherwise run in from the side spamming pings for your ally. Try and use Q first and save your ultimate for when they flash but make sure to ult them before they reach their turret. If enemy jungler is mid ult the enemy mid in 9/10 situations (shaco being the 1/10) because mid is almost certain to do more damage.

 

Whatever you do, do not bait your ally to his death. If your ally is low it is your fault for running in because he wanted to help because you could not do it alone. Don't do that. You'll blame him for dying but he had good intentions and you triggered it, it is your fault. And remember, if you succeed go take dragon for the extra gold while you're down there.

 

That was all, hope you like it. If not GET THE -beep- OUT !

Bob's warwick guide ? He is a master with ww .

Bob isn't the only guy who's playing ww, lol.
Posted

Agree but this build is not your for sure.

 

The guide is not just the build. Tbh most people use about the same builds at mid/high Elo.

Posted

Some credits added, don't fuck my brain. Of course i add some things that i found on web.

 

Don't even give a shit for comments like "this isn't yours".

Search and if you find the same guide put it in my ass.

Posted

Decent guide.Have you ever tried AP WW though?

 

When people refer to AP ww (aka magewick) they do not mean that you're building AP... Just Doran's Ring, Sorc Shoes and items that deal magic damage (Wit's End, Madred's Bloodrazor, Sunfire Cape). These items are awesome on WW since his ulti applies their on-hit effects 6 times in 2 seconds and he's got huge AS thanks to his W.

This.

You just build 2 or 3 dorans ring for start. Sorc boots. Then you're going for tanky items who give you magic damage. Withs end-> Magic res & Magic Damage, Madred-> Armor & Magic Damage. Sometimes i build hextech too if the game is going well but is not a good option always. Sometimes the only magic damage that i have is for dorans ring cause im going full tank. Is situational.

    • Good afternoon, gentlemen. I’d like to ask a question to those who know their stuff — and just get some advice. Let me start with the main point. I want to try learning Java. Just for myself — I simply like programming, and it’s a small hobby of mine. Though, perhaps it’s too early to say I really like Java, since I don’t actually know it well yet. I’ll get straight to the point. Back in my youth, like many others, I played Lineage 2. Later, I became interested in creating servers and even made my own — we had around 70 players, all schoolkids like me. I learned how to install builds, add NPCs and various add-ons “from the internet” back then. But my attempts to create my own Lineage 2 additions in Java almost always failed. At best, I could slightly modify ready-made code, but not write anything from scratch. My interest in Lineage 2 and Java has stayed with me to this day. For me, it’s a creative process — a favorite game where you can build your own “sandbox.” I’d really like to hear from the community about where you started. In your opinion, what’s the best way to learn Java using Lineage 2 as an example? I don’t have a clear learning plan — and that’s probably the problem. I’ve tried reading Schildt’s book, and I’ve also tried studying Java source codes of various server builds by poking around to understand how the server works and how programs are written. I can’t say I understand nothing — I do get some things, and I believe I have a knack for it. But it’s not systematic. Maybe I really do need advice from more experienced people, to find a strategy that’s both effective for learning Java and interesting because it’s connected to Lineage 2 — not just writing abstract programs “for nothing.” In Lineage 2, you can see the result right away — and I get genuinely happy even from small successes. So here’s the main point: I’d like to know where you started. Is it even worth combining Java and Lineage 2? Recently, ChatGPT has been a huge help — thanks to it, I’ve made some progress and started to understand the server structure at least a little. But there’s one issue: if I just copy and paste, the result works — but without ChatGPT, I can’t reproduce it on my own. I’ve been working with PwSoft source files — I think many people know them. Why exactly them? I can’t really say — probably because there are lots of ready-made add-ons for this build online, and I originally focused more on modifying existing code than writing my own. I worked with PwSoft for a long time. Then, on ChatGPT’s advice, I switched to aCis — it’s cleaner, more minimalistic, without unnecessary “clutter.” It’s easier to understand where everything is located. I installed the aCis sources, everything compiles fine, but… if in PwSoft I could at least navigate the code and write simple methods, in aCis I couldn’t even make a basic NPC that gives noblesse for adena. That’s why I decided to write this post — just to talk about learning Java through Lineage 2, to hear your opinions, your stories, your approaches. Maybe someone will say: “Don’t bother, it’s a waste of time.” I’ll accept those answers too. But I’d still like to hear different perspectives. If you can, please recommend good video courses on Java that would help me learn faster and in a more structured way. To repeat: this is something from my childhood that I never finished. My job is stable now, and I have time — at least sometimes. I can work on this calmly, as long as my learning goes in the right direction. I think you get it: this is something “for the soul,” and I really want to grow in it. Thanks to everyone who read to the end. I really appreciate any advice. And if someone is open to chatting privately or by voice — I’d gladly talk, and I’m happy to “buy a beer” for a constructive conversation. Peace to everyone!       Добрый день, господа. Я хотел бы задать вопрос тем, кто знает свое дело — и просто получить совет. Начну с главного. Я хочу попробовать изучить Java. Только для себя — мне просто нравится программирование, и это мое маленькое хобби. Хотя, возможно, еще слишком рано говорить, что мне действительно нравится Java, так как я еще не очень хорошо ее знаю. Я сразу перейду к делу. В юности, как и многие другие, я играл в Lineage 2. Позже я увлекся созданием серверов и даже сделал свой — у нас было около 70 игроков, все школьники, как и я. Я научился устанавливать сборки, добавлять NPC и различные дополнения "из интернета" еще тогда. Но мои попытки создать свои собственные дополнения Lineage 2 на Java почти всегда терпели неудачу. В лучшем случае я мог бы немного доработать готовый код, но не писать ничего с нуля. Мой интерес к Lineage 2 и Java не покидает меня и по сей день. Для меня это творческий процесс — любимая игра, в которой можно построить свою «песочницу». Мне очень хотелось бы услышать от сообщества о том, с чего вы начали. На ваш взгляд, как лучше всего изучать Java на примере Lineage 2? У меня нет четкого плана обучения — и, вероятно, в этом проблема. Я пробовал читать книгу Герберта Шилдта, а также пытался изучать исходные коды Java различных серверных сборок, копаясь вокруг, чтобы понять, как работает сервер и как пишутся программы. Не могу сказать, что я ничего не понимаю — я кое-что понимаю, и я верю, что у меня есть к этому способности. Но это не систематично. Возможно, мне действительно нужен совет от более опытных людей, чтобы найти стратегию, которая была бы одновременно эффективной для изучения Java и интересной, потому что она связана с Lineage 2, а не просто писать абстрактные программы «впустую». В Lineage 2 результат виден сразу — и я искренне радуюсь даже от маленьких успехов. Итак, вот главное: я хотел бы знать, с чего вы начали. Стоит ли вообще совмещать Java и Lineage 2? В последнее время ChatGPT очень помог — благодаря ему я добился некоторого прогресса и начал хотя бы немного разбираться в структуре сервера. Но есть одна проблема: если я просто скопирую и вставлю, результат работает, но без ChatGPT я не могу воспроизвести его самостоятельно. Я работал с исходными файлами PwSoft — думаю, многие их знают. Почему именно они? Я не могу точно сказать — вероятно, потому что в сети есть много готовых дополнений для этой сборки, и я изначально больше сосредоточился на модификации существующего кода, чем на написании своего. Я долгое время работал с PwSoft. Потом, по совету ChatGPT, я перешел на aCis — он чище, минималистичнее, без лишнего «беспорядка». Так проще понять, где что находится. Я установил исходники aCis, все нормально компилируется, но... Если в PwSoft я мог хотя бы ориентироваться в коде и писать простые методы, то в aCis я не смог сделать даже базового NPC, который дает благородство для adena. Вот почему я решил написать этот пост — просто чтобы поговорить об изучении Java через Lineage 2, услышать ваши мнения, ваши истории, ваши подходы. Может быть, кто-то скажет: «Не заморачивайтесь, это пустая трата времени». Я тоже приму эти ответы. Но я все же хотел бы услышать разные точки зрения. Если можете, пожалуйста, порекомендуйте хорошие видеокурсы по Java, которые помогут мне учиться быстрее и более структурированно. Повторюсь: это что-то из моего детства, которое я так и не закончил. Моя работа сейчас стабильна, и у меня есть время — хотя бы иногда. Я могу спокойно работать над этим, пока мое обучение идет в правильном направлении. Думаю, вы поняли: это что-то «для души», и я очень хочу в этом расти. Спасибо всем, кто дочитал до конца. Я очень ценю любой совет. А если кто-то открыт для личного общения или голосом — я с удовольствием поговорю, и с удовольствием «куплю пиво» для конструктивного разговора. Всем мира!😀🤝
