A majority of Warrior's actions will be based on building/consuming Wrath V and actively working on our mitigation - rather than the current practice of holding on to it (Wrath V) and hoping our Healer saves us (I don't like being baby sat - hold Wrath V and pray is not exactly how I like identifying as a WAR, but that's what we do right now because our mitigation sucks). Alternating combos to maintain buffs and debuffs is becoming even more of a thing with these changes.

Changing a few effects so that WAR scales just as well as PLD does nothing to it's identity - well other than doing away with the "not as good as a PLD" identity it's got currently.
