[war]Parsing +10 dex allotment, basic "just 50" gear, currently maximizing for parry.

Lol... these are a bunch of numbers, which are currently meaningless unless you plan on using these as a baseline to compare to say, a Paladin with the exact same stats beating on the exact same mobs. You'd also have to run this for hours on end on multiple tests (minimize variance of RNG) before you could consider any of the data collected to be worthwhile.

Every post you make seems to confirm you have no clue what you're talking about.


Begin helping yourself by making a hypothesis, collecting a baseline data set, then changing only 1 variable, and recording more data. Compare the two, realize that correlation does not equal causation, state that it matches or disagrees with your hypothesis, think of outside variables that could have influenced the data (better yet do more tests to eliminate possible outside variables), and finally you can begin to make valuable posts on these forums.

This is not my job. You seem to have a very firm grasp of the scientific method.
How about you go do that for us and come back with the results. I look forward to them.

I would like to go play my game now and have some dinner.

Unlike most of you, I really appreciate what Hachiko and others have done to publish data on things we seem to disagree on.
I take no offense to it, and I think unless you have a devil's advocate, you can't truly sharpen your pencil and be ABSOLUTELY SURE what you claim is COMPLETELY TRUE.

If everyone just accepted "war is broken" and nobody challenged that assumption, we would never know HOW (or NOT) broken it actually is.

I'm hoping for a COMPLETE balance between the tanks, with an equal level of utility for both, in DIFFERENT boss types. I don't mind if one boss is better for PLD or another is better for WAR. That would be good. Right now people are saying EVERYTHING is better for PLD at endgame, and I PERSONALLY (and yoshi-p too apparently) think that's wrong. You're free and welcome to disagree. That doesn't bother me - just prove it! And use stats parsed from WAR, not PLD, to do so.

The big problem is that if it turns out War actually isn't all that broken, and it gets a significant buff, the same thing will happen to PLD that's happening to WAR right now: And that's BAD. VERY BAD, because it'll cause rampant nerfbat and buffing in an attempt to appease the players and fixed the huge imbalance they might actually cause. If they nerf PLD instead (which they might do) most people will FREAK OUT.

Do you want that?
