How much time does your MT spend in tank stance if you need "maximized mitigation" ?

You also don't have the same eHP by using Rampart than a WAR using IB.
A: I think you mean "dictionaries". if you're going to be petty *AT LEAST* get your spelling right.

B: since you clearly advertised an appetite for the shallow things in life, you need to acknowledge that warriors ARE ALWAYS MAKING A CHOICE.

You can't (logically) gripe that we have better offensive cooldowns and then complain that IB is maybe, arguably, slightly better than things like shadowskin or rampart. The class is *built* around making choices.

The reality is inner beast is only used when absolutely necessary and if none of warriors stack choices were any good then the whole point of having stacks and making intelligent choices would be rendered MOOT.

That's why I MADE this topic in THE FIRST PLACE: to get the opinion on how WAR could be adjusted without absolutely DESTROYING its power of choice that make it so fun, engaging, and rewarding for intelligent players. unfortunately it's been co-opted by everything but intelligent tanks interested in intelligent discussion.

It seems like for every rational post on here about actual issues with the class I see one or two dozen people COMPLETELY ignorant of how the classes mechanics actually handle, griping left and right about how they won't be sated until pld and drk are both easier to play and don't have to deal with spur of the moment decision making, while also both having better dps and universal Edef and self healing and everything war has but better but easier and blah blah blah. the best part is most of these people are dps mains.... or pld mains... or drk mains..... making brilliant posts left and right.

Someone seriously said holmgang was better than HG.... wth is wrong with this community? o_O
