Being a warrior for me is the most challenging, but the most FUN!
I agree with you, indeed, a warrior build is also for me the most challeging build/class
and I strongly believe I came now to the finale(?) ultimate build for me that will bring me the most fun, satifaction & happy feelings I ever had playing a game :
A Warrior Priest !
Maybe strange, but truth, I've started "again" a New Game while my Ranger Priest Ronja and my Mage Priest ...

... hmmmm ... Ronja is possible now changed in a stone statue standing next to Rhode & my Mage Priest is almost in the Hall of Echoes !
