Tank Balance Achieved?

At the risk of repeating myself, I'll agree that spamming Fell Cleaves isn't the most interesting thing in the world. But I see some people proposing Inner Release become a damage buff. So we'll go from spamming 6 Fell Cleaves, to maybe spamming 3, before going back spamming Storm's Path. I don't see how that would make Warrior more interesting. If anything, it would simplify things and just make Warrior the easiest tank to play. Please no.

We need something new. Some additional mechanic that uses the beast gauge that forces Warriors to make decisions and that ultimately rewards them with high amounts of damage. Because right now, the only decision we're able to make is when the best time to use Inner Release is.

IMO what would make it interesting would be unlinking Inner Release from Unchained (which is flawed concept anyway) and allowing IR in Defiance as well. Update Inner Beast:

Inner Beast
Added Effect:
*If already under the effect of Inner Beast:
- Potency increased to 420
- Duration extended by 6 seconds

With IR usable in both, WAR now has an Defiance alternative IR/Zerk rotation - while lesser than FCbot, it is competitive and gives awesome defense. I think that is where I want them to go, plus the DR blanket Inner Beast now provides gives time in which to guilt-free tank in Deliverance. Add a +crit rate to Unchained because without it's still inferior to to just swapping to Deliverance, which would be available for Defiance burst but not Deliverance. And it'd be a boon to WAR at early levels.

Really glad someone else has pointed this out. I mean our level 70 ability is a dps increase ability as a tank class? Although I love doing damage as a tank I know it isn't the primary job of the class and we should be given more tools to survive. This change would make our defiance do a lot more damage closer to being in deliverance while giving us another rampart if inner beast would be changed to extend its duration (maybe by 4-5 secs instead of 6) not to mention the insane healing we would get as well.
