Rudra's Storm mods

[Atomic_Skull]

I don't know, Maybe I'm a unique THF, I just don't understand why everyone's so comfortable Rudra's being a steaming pile of Mediocre unless its stacked... I don't mind it replacing Evisc, or DE, thats what i want it to do in fact.

I'm sure no WAR complains they don't get to use Raging Rush anymore... No MNK complains Victory Smite out-classes Asuran/Tornado... I would think.

I think a modest boost to Rudra's that would allow it to be more powerful than Evisc/DE unstacked isn't asking too much from SE, It would only server to help THF. Its not going to make THF better than WAR or MNK, But It'll help THF in a small way, which is what it needs.

Again, Like my proposed adjustment above, It would make Rudra's a fierce unstacked WS, but it would not make it any more powerful stacked than it is now. It would keep it useable a lot more often, allowing Thwast THFs to keep up Aftermath without sacrificing damage where applicable.

Chance of critical hit varies with TP

Damage varies with TP

Pick one, you can't have both. If you get your wish and they make Rudra's a TP=critical WS then you can say goodbye to fTP 3.25~5.25. Extra TP will just gain you an extra 10-15% critical hit rate and you won't be seeing 6k+ Rudras anymore.

Know what would be better than changing Rudras?

An ability that:

Forces a critical hit on the next WS regardless of direction.
Changes STR/Attack relationship to 1:1 on the next WS.
Has a 20 second cooloff and shares it's recast timer with Sneak Attack and Trick Attack.
