WAR changes update?

[Devils]

So the 2 jobs I like to play are both in for some changes in 2.1 I main BRD and WAR. Both are 50 and I am spending my Phil on my BRD(or was until I heard about "nerf") and my Myth on WAR.

My main question is does anyone know when they will be announcing the changes to WAR? Will we here before 2.1 or will it be info given at launch?

I can tell you that is they take away the BRD's mobility then I will just mothball that, that is the best part about the job IMO. I have BLM to 40 and I will just 50 with hit to have a ranged DD.

My hope is that they buff WAR to make it hang with PLD more endgame. I can even feel the effects when running WP SR's (not true endgame I know). I have to watch the weight of my pulls or I just get chewed up to fast for the healer to keep up or if there heals are OP then they rip hate off me before I can establish hate on the whole pack. I am running DL/AF2 and Relic to do so and it pisses me off to no end how PLD's can accomplish that with using DL/AK gear.........

I take my BRD to coil as I am too afraid to take my WAR and get raped, even with my gear it is kind of hard to tank HM Titan and I hear Coil tanking is even more difficult.

EDIT: Just wanted to add the cahnges coming in 2.1 as they were annouced on the first post to save people having to go to the 3rd page to find it

The main focus of these changes—as the seasoned warriors among you have already observed— was Inner Beast and its HP absorption effect. With these changes, warriors will no longer be dependent on a single skill to recover HP, and have overall improved defense.

To put it simply, we want to ensure the role of warriors as durable tanks. This is why we've also adjusted the effects of Wrath and Defiance. As currently implemented, warriors are forced to lose their healing bonus when using certain skills. However, these changes will allow players to use their warrior skills without sacrificing improved healing, and also maintain the critical hit bonus of Wrath.

Although warrior will no longer recover immense amounts of HP in a single use of Inner Beast, these changes should improve the overall defensive capability of warriors and the ability to heal them using a support class or job.

Patch 2.1 may seem a long way off, but please understand that we have to test these balance changes not only in encounters to be introduced in the upcoming patch, but all existing encounters as well.
(Please refer to a previous post for details on why we cannot break up patch 2.1)
While I regret having to keep you waiting, I am confident these changes, along with the numerous additions we have planned for patch 2.1, will be well worth your patience.
