Rift Warrior Builds is a talent build site for Warriors of Rift. This site has soul talent builds for Beastmaster, Riftblade, Reaver, Champion, Paragon, Void Knight and Warlord Warriors.
Warriors have much diverse strength. Below I will talk a little about each class and I will list builds for each. As the game is currently in the beta phase now much of the builds and information may change.
