These warrior changes are great

I'm struggling to find information on Storms Path from 2.0, but I remember plenty of arguments of what should WAR do as OT, which included the idea of alternating between Path and Eye, when not MTing. (Instead of BB for the higher DPS)
Path did offer support to the rest of the group, but if it wasnt -10% dmg, I'm fairly sure it helpped do something to lower dmg, otherwise it had no use.

You can check the patch notes directly at the lodestone, it's baffling how much WAR was buffed at 2.1. Frankly, I think they overdid it and WAR was OP since then. But since we only had two tank jobs and frequently two tank spots, it didn't really click during ARR.

(And PLDs did NOT have a CD for every Death Sentance, it was impossible w/o how often she used that attack. They can survive the attack, but were likely to die right after the attack.)

At 30s between each Death Sentence, you can use Rampart for the 1st, Sentinel for the 2nd, Hallowed for the 3rd, Rampart for the 4th, Bulwark+Fortress for the 5th. And if your group faces more than 5 Death Sentences, you'd probably die of enrage anyway.

Nostalgia Lulz

Extra note for more nostalgia lulz:

If a pld with no CD was 'likely' to die right after a TB with tank stance on and no CD, then war was essentially that every time but worse lacking 20% mitigation and shield. War then needed more HP refilled than pld due to higher HP and no tank stance mitigation mitigation, but.....kicker! Death sentence reduced heals on the target dramatically for a duration afterwards. Guess what a tank that had zero mitigation and only heals does after being smashed in the face with a healing reducing tank buster?

2.0 war was the worst job at its role to ever exist. 2.1 couldn't come fast enough lol.
