Rest in peace War dps

[Kabooa]

Some people, like myself, enjoy pushing ourselves to better than "good enough". We were rewarded in playing above and beyond the requirements with higher dps, i.e. faster runs and everyone winning from it. With that being impossible now, I can at least speak for myself in that tanking bores me now.

Nothing's stopping you from pushing to be better. Your ceiling got moved, not your floor.

A flat damage nerf is stopping me from pushing to be better, because damage is so pathetic now that I've lost motivation to push for such marginal improvement compared to before. It's an insult to effort.

What can I do with all this extra vit now? Nothing at all. I can be a good tank, but that's it now. I can't be a good tank and balance it with good damage anymore.

If you believe the damage is pathetic try helping a group meet any of the new DPS checks without your outgoing damage. It won't happen.

A loss of motivation is your fault, nobody else's. If you're too good to push your tank DPS now that's fine, but that's your choice and nobody is responsible for it.

And the incoming tank damage has been ramped up so that stuff hits like a bus now and you need almost all of that extra VIT.

These are all things people have been going over in the forums and reddit for 2 weeks now, just get over it and adapt. That's your job more than anything else.

....

I don't recall blaming anyone else for it?

But it's not my fault either. Am I supposed to force myself to like these changes? I don't know about you, but I can't just force motivation upon myself.

But no worries, I will adapt. I'll adapt by not tanking anymore since the new standards bore me. I've never enjoyed being just a meatshield in games. Prior to these changes, tanks could be more than that. Now they can't, and alas, I grow bored with it in this game too.
