New Inner Beast DR.. the end all be all skill

You are also forgetting to factor in Warriors get the advantage of Storms Path - The combo bonus now also reduces damage dealt by enemies by 10%.

They removed this from bard rain and gave it to warriors basicly forcing groups to take a warrior for all content until a group is completely geared to compensate the dmg reduction on top of all the other warrior buffs. I know they needed qol changes like some of the other classes but this is buff list is just laughable and mostly a result of the qq because they certainly didn't need all this.


Warriors crying they can't do content but it has been shown they can do all content just fine once properly geared. Heck even a WHM can tank titan hardmode while warriors claim they couldn't.

They could have just nerfed pld to be more inline with war.

That is the complete honest truth, but i guess these changes bring more dynamics to the group and put war more in line with pld. There was two options, either nerf pld (which would have caused a bunch of rage quitting from players) or make war competitive to pld so that not only could you do content with Pld/Pld or Pld/War, but also War/War.

You call it QoL changes, when really most of the changes (maybe not all) needed to take place because, War is/was currently, straight up a weaker tank than pld when you have them both equally geared. Period, there are no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

The issue is that nerfing PLD would have made completing the content much more difficult than necessary.
