DON"T DO IT !

Self-Heal issue is that our HP is not high enough to allow us to be Self Heal tanks either. If Twintania hits us for 7.8K, we WILL die. Not 100% of the time, but we won't survive 100% of the time either. The margin for error is so minuscule, that we need to be at 100% HP at all times. Only way we can be blood tanks (Which is NOT the warrior concept... Please stop that, it was always Dark Knight) We need FAR more HP from Defiance. 65-75% instead of 25%.

i like the sound of that!

The margin of error in this whole game is very tiny. The servers seem to lac capacity cause i got lots of people that say they are out of shit and get hit by it anyway.

I experience this form time to time as well. Game is unforgiving and heartless. Seems like if they gave about 1/5 more of a second people wouldn't have trouble getting out the way of attacks.

If anyone noticed they slowed down the garuda and ifrit HM fights, i don't see a problem with doing that across the board. I shouldn't have to predict when a move is going off then move its kinda pain in the ass.

the problem is that twintania's death sentence deals a percentage of your max hp, if you have 20khp,it'll deal 18k dmg.

and btw, the only reason 1.0 is dead is because only a complete reboot would stir up enough commotion to get interest back. Had 1.0 launched in a tolerable state it would have never closed. I don't know anyone that played during the final year of 1.0 that thinks ARR is a better game. battle, difficulty, appearance, cutscenes, realism, expansive world, everything about it was better. it had its issues, copy/paste world, horrible framework and server lag (that we still have btw), but overall ARR was a couple of steps back. The only people that don't agree were people who quit after the botched launch or were only told how bad it was.


edit: max hp.. not damage.. fail

I was under the false impression that it was 8000 Damage pre mitigation. Thanks for that insight. =)

wait.... really?

The more I look into it, the less I feel that it's true. I believe now that Twintania hits with Death Sentence in Phase 1 for 4.5K, then 7.5-8K in Phase 2 and onward. (Pre Mitigation)

I just fought twintania again last night, i ate a 7.6k death sentence without defiance on (i had 6.8khp) so i guess i was wrong. but its still ridiculous that an attack that deals nearly 8k to war does like 3-4k to a pld.

I'm looking forward to the Warrior changes. I believe they will be an excellent fix based on my current experience with ff14 (albeit rather limited in comparison to other forum members) and my experience as a tank in other mmos.

It's common knowledge that a tank's main priority is enmity/agro/hate/threat. Secondary to this, a tank's class specific skills then come into play ie defensive buffs (aka mitigation) leeching (aka health regeneration) etcetera. Tertiary to this, little "niches" or "group benefits" can come into play and often do ie additional dps/stunning-rooting-silencing-etc/debuff wiping/etcetera.

It sounds like to me, these changes will help fix the Warrior's biggest problem (critical damage taken) while still allowing for self heals to be relevant to their skill set.

That's my 2 sense anyway.

Also you said youve been a warrior since Beta... thats great and all, but ive been a warrior since 1.0. Warrior was never a selfheal tank, it was a rage/rampage job with high HP and damage. It got its self heal from steel cyclone, which everyone knows was ridiculously broken. they took that idea (as to not piss 1.0 warriors off) and tried to make it a semi-self healing tank.. which is not working. In 1.0 even self heal tanking only worked because steel cyclone had a REALLY high crit rate, high damage, a high HP return and was an AoE. against a single mob it was awful.

lets not go down the 1.0 route. that game is dead.

He has warrior leveled as well actually including having the relic so...............

Also, I am just now leveling up my Warrior so I can't say as much as you have but seriously, "but" is a conjunction, "butt" is the word we use when referring to someones posterior. So I doubt any one is "but hurt".

I know correcting something like that is kinda childish but it bugged me the whole time.
