Warriors - Rerolls

Quitting after the free month, I have no desire to play a paladin let alone reroll. No fix to warriors along with nothing being done about gil spammers and teleport hackers doesn't encourage me to keep playing.

This game has one role per class, no specs, no builds, etc, this conversation shouldn't even be happening. There's not enough variables, even for a launch MMO, to have a subpar DPS let alone a tank.

im already on the brink of a decision if to keep playing the game myself, I mean, its a mess to many problems and to grindy

I'm not rerolling, I'm on hiatus until they fix the class. If that doesn't happen in patch 2.1 at the latest, I'm never coming back at all. It's not as if the game itself is great, especially for us Europeans who just have to resign ourselves to playing with extreme latency. I'm not affording SE a lot of patience with this, and the game isn't even good enough for me to bother starting over with a new class and doing all the boring shit again so soon after doing it for the first time.

When I heal anything and I see a war tank I just let out a groan, please, don't tank while warrior. I used to be a war in 1.0 and I tested out war during beta after I got my 50 war back and I just tossed the thought of tanking ever again out.

Some people may be sitting there thinking, "well maybe other people aren't doing it right, I could be a great war tank and have super high hp and do lots of dmg and make the plds jealous".

:( nope.

Oh, and I picked smn after I tossed out war, I had all jobs anyways but becoming a dps is a good idea. If you become a healer you'll just learn to loathe wars more.

Already rerolled to BLM, not even going to bother with paladin since it seems really boring. If SE thinks they can get away with screwing half their tanks we'll see how that goes.

I know many people who re rolled or are playing a different class now. After playing a sith sorceror/operative you are not going to to see change ANY time soon especially if the devs disagree.

Who knows change might come in 2.1 but I highly doubt it.

Fix'd, this is SE we are talking about.

Now I'm 100% sure SE mentality will never change, yeah good luck with PvP balance...

I'm actually shelving my WAR for now as I do not wish to be a burden to my group. Will pick it back up later definitely but when is up to SE (probably 2.1 CT) so till then I'll be on a DD either pulling my bow or punching my way up.

I have no interest in leveling 2 tanking classes, so I rolled an Archer instead. Kiting is pretty fun in this game, I can run FATE bosses in circles indefinitely if they aren't ranged attackers. Well, indefinitely until I get bored of it, usually some people show up pretty quickly after I've kited it around awhile and somebody with a sword and board takes the aggro and tanks it for us.

Reroll to Paladin. WAR is not a tank. It is a DPS that takes reduced damage.
