Proposal for Update of Catastrophe Haste addition

[ChrisChua]

I would sooner give Scythe WSs a boost than upgrade the Aftermath in all honesty. I mean Scythe in general is fairly lackluster where as you are talking about making literally one of the best Aftermaths in the game for Scythe simply even better. The only reason I say decreasing the delay so much is a bad idea is because the lower you make it with such a high DMG weapon the more your DPS goes up, not by any small amount either, you are talking about literally attacking twice as often. If you did that with a 10% cap break I actually don't doubt that WSing would become a DPS loss rather than a gain simply because you would be swinging basically 1 or more times nearly every 85/100ths of a second, ignoring all forms of Double, Triple, or Quadruple Attack which boost up your attack rate to an insane amount.

I won't disagree that Scythe needs an upgrade, I will disagree that this should be the method of such an upgrade and that it would only go to a single weapon, thats all.

I think everyone agrees scythe needs an update. The simple fact is very few, if any LS, will let you bring a scythe to a serious end game due to the OP of Monk and Samurai. The simple truth is after the iLvl gear so much haste is added on each piece that 10% haste is nothing anymore to lose as it's gained by another slot. The haste is almost a null point in a conversation piece and the healing utility really is the only highlight to stand out. One could say this is great for solo play but they introduced ciphers now to which monk/samurai still would be the better choice. I can't see how it really has a place anymore without being in the RDM abyss of death.

They could possibly change catastrophe haste to be (10%) JA haste and give a bit more power to the fTP and change modifiers. I think that would be a start in the right direction, however, it's going to take a big update to it to be in the league it once was after all these SOA additions.
