Is Inner Beast Duration To Short ? Vote

Can inner beast miss?

I think Argyle was more referencing the fact that you can't use IB to benefit from the DR if there isn't a target in melee with you, as opposed to the minute possibility of not hitting the target if you don't have enough accuracy. If the boss you're fighting has vanished (like Garuda) or is out of range (like t4 if you're kiting or pulling), you don't get to use IB, which means no DR for stuff you might like to have 6 seconds of DR for.

Sorry I posted the same thing again by mistake

+1 inner beast for off-GCD!

I personally have problems when swap tankers (Titan ex) and i have to maintain agroo and leave GCD free to pops IB for montain brust, can be done, but requires perfect timing on swaping/rotation, that makes things harder when playing on DF or PUGs.
on DS also can be a problem when u need get someone free from conflag and twintania loses your SP debuff and u need to SP again asap for the next DS and leave GCD free to pops IB perfectly otherwise healers goes bananas


sry for my bad english

Ya, this is a really good point for how it being on GCD really doesn't work well. I can usually plan for Titan EX, but there is occasions where between putting up SP, trying to maintain threat over the pug PLD, and put up IB for that MB is just a matter of *lesser of evils*. Usually that means throwing out a SS, letting SP drop, and throwing out IB. It is far more noticeable on Ifrit EX where breaths come so often I feel I am IBing more then BB/SP comboing.

While Death Sentence is somewhat timed, it is not exact, it is a 32 second window that it *can't* happen. So there is definitely hang time there to make sure IB will go off right when we see DS charge bar, or you just hope that within the 6 seconds after 32 seconds covers the DS time.

So again, like most of us are saying, IB oGCD would be best. I like the feel of the 6 second window, and how it can be powerful, it is just hindered by a 2.5 second GCD currently making IB very uncomfortable. Making it weaker and over longer intervals would lose some Warrior flavor IMO.

Yeah I understand u need to hit something to use inner beast, but I was wondering if it can miss, I personally haven't ever seen it miss, maybe because I haven't run coil yet. But has anyone ever seen it miss?
And if it does miss then I think it should be made so that it doesn't seeing as how essential it is to our tanking, also comparing with the PLD equivalent which doesn't

Personally, I think Inner Beast have missed once for me but I have no proof to back it up or deny it. It was during Caduceus that I notice I couldn't get the mitigation up as usual cause my accuracy was low. I think it's fine as is. It forces you to get that accuracy up which helps with building wrath stacks also since any of the skills can miss putting you back to Heavy Swing, thus delay your stack generation by 2 GCDs.

while i certainly wouldn't complain, i don't feel its necessary. once you know the fight, you'll get a feel for when its need and the 5 secs will be plenty. if WAR's get another buff, i'd either want it to be something that improves holmgang.

My only complaint about IB is that it's not an off-GCD skill. Waiting for the critical moment to pop IB without constantly throwing normal GCD skills is kind of like waiting to use rampage in ff11 while watching tp goes way beyond 100%. It's a big let-down in the entertaining wise.

either 8 seconds or off-gcd, would be great.
