Patch 6.21 Job Adjustments Overview:

[ForteNightshade]

WAR chads keep winning!

Not really?

This is a rather small buff overall. It leaves Warrior is last place, still noticeably behind both Gunbreaker and Dark Knight. Just not so far behind they're borderline unviable.

WAR probably shouldn't be doing the damage GNB or DRK is doing.

[Absimiliard]

WAR probably shouldn't be doing the damage GNB or DRK is doing.

Why? The only things it has going for it at this point are self-healing and Holmgang, both of which get slapped with the gimp stick by mechanics currently being employed in savages. That aside, damage is the name of the game. Not playing the jobs with the highest damage output is in effect actively choosing to hamper your team, whether you're able to clear like that or not. The lion's share of raiders are aware of this, and the decisions they make will be informed by this understanding. Keeping WAR and PLD behind DRK and GNB, especially by such a wide margin, is functionally the same as telling people not to play them.

WAR has the best mitigation and a very simple rotation.
GNB and DRK still needs to be rewarded when dealing with more buttons and mechanics.

But yes the gap is way too big right now.

Because if we ever see a meta where WAR is doing the same or more damage than GNB or DRK then the other two will be dropped entirely for the sheer utility that WAR brings to the table.
And then we'll get into a further homogenization meta where very single Invul will have to be 240s CD and every Tank will have to have Nascent Flash/Bloodwhetting.
