Lets nerf WAR :D

Also: 25% damage for 10s equates to one GCD, keep in mind that when PLD has to swap it loses 2 GCD - two jumps worth for a WAR - straight up before it loses its 20% damage, a disadvantage to the point where most probably don't even swap until the jump and just drop the shield oath buff. This is in the two jump scenario, anything progression wise PLD is clearly still worse off

Dont forget about Unchained lol. When I go into Defiance to prep for the recovery after a buster I: Defience, Unchained, Berserk, Path combo, take hit or hits, I will usually have an IB up after hit, Equilibrium, IB, ToB, Deliverance

Really if you are using unchained in this way you really dont lose any DPS outside of losing Fell Cleave

I actually heard someone in my FC said Unchained was now worthless and I was like you couldn't be more wrong. Some forget that Defiance-Unchained is practically is another "defensive" cooldown that can be used in the DPS rotation to help recover on healing with Equalibrium, IB, Thrill while still keeping DPS up, then after they can assess if can go back to Deliverance to spend stacks.

That one person should drop the axe and never touch it again. Unchained is still a huge dps CD (or rather, it became a great defensive CD)

I already knew they were a questionable WAR based on my past experience with them in FCoB, and of course he had all his character stats and right sides in VIT as well, so yeah.

Plus Infuriate-Unchained is totally a must whenever possible in a main tank opener, and now it's more awesome being used as a defensive CD while going to pound town.

Boosting time to kill which means less damage taken in the long run.
Boosting threat, otherwise defenses are worthless when everyone is ignoring you.
Boosting damage for more lifesteals, the Warrior's main source of self sustainability.
