    That's too bad.

    If you gotta take something away, better give us something great at 99

    They don't have to give you anything... what terrible logic. Nerfing the most ridiculously broken dd job in the game via one ability hardly deems compensation mandatory. Why do they have to give you anything to make up for it? If you will still be the top at 99 then you obviously didn't need it...

    What terrible reading comprehension. He never said they had to give us anything, and he never demanded it. He's just hoping for it, same as every other Warrior on here. In fact, I've never seen a calmer reaction to an announced nerf from a group than when this was announced (which was even made clear by Camate himself in his above post), because WARs know their place and that asking for more would just be greedy. Take the lovely DRK people for example, who even bitch after an announced fix for their abilities. And about the "most ridiculously broken DD", there are still people who dispute WAR's top rank among current DDs, for good reason. Because the front lines of that race are blurry, and WAR isn't the only one at the top.

    Probably in part due to the fact that noone really uses restraint to it's full potential anyway. WS as fast and often as you can and it barely makes a difference to your ws. Now it will simply barely make even less difference.

    I am still looking forward to the JA allowing us to swap weapon damage type. Hoping they haven't forgotten about that one.

    If you land three attacks in between WS, it will give you a 3%~5% direct damage boost, depending on your buffs. It's not much, but still useful (especially if you land more single hits). Imagine that kind of boost on equipment, and everyone would want it for every job.

    And now imagine a nerf being announced to Scarlet Delirium. DRKs would throw a fit despite their universal acknowledgement that the ability sucks Chocobo balls. Dfoley's comment just was completely unjustified, no one in here freaked out because of this and no one demanded anything. He's making stuff up.

    Me too, a little disconcerting that we still didn't hear about that yet. Although we didn't hear much about any job so far, other than PUP. I would really love if we could also discard weapon type with it and make it magical, like Formless Strikes. I doubt this would happen, but it's nice to dream.

    Going to wager a guess that you have no idea what the term 'reading comprehension' even means based on your reply.

    better give us something great at 99
    This is not a hope - this is a demand / expectation.

    "I hope they give us something nice at 99" or "wouldn't it be great if we got something nifty/useful at 99 that added utility without breaking out dd"

    Those two statements I would consider hopes and not demands.

    The reason warriors are so calm and quiet about this whole thing is they will still have fantastic DD and be highly sought after, and above all else, any warrior with half a brain already knew that the DD was a bit too high and needed adjusting.

    Compare restraint to the monk version (impetus) and you will see a completely different (wont say more balanced) alternative. Your bonus could reset every time you miss....
