Warrior stance swapping is broken, please fix SE

[Donjo]

I smell exploit material there

The damage incurred by leaving the stance kills the exploit.

[FridgePanic]

[Comrade_uri]

We have to waste a CD and put in a skill from another class?

My god and ppl think PLD is broken!?

SE FIX THIS PLEASE OR I WILL HAVE TO UNSUB AND CRY!!!

Are you kidding with this? In dps we already have as much health as the other tank. Swap, pop Equilibirum, and tank up good sir. Throw in Thrill of Battle if you're feeling really insecure.

Well... is it really that 5%? Or is it the fact that Spells are enhanced by Defiance but Abilities aren't?

It is both, the 5% causes a 4% effective healing disparity with spells (If you're wondering how 5% = 4%, by receiving 5% less "increased" healing, WAR receives 4% less effective healing than PLD/DRK). Abilities are a new thing since they were percentage of HP and affected WAR the same as PLD, but were changed to potency based in HW. They are simply 25% less effective on a WAR in defiance than PLD/DRK in their tanks stances.

Again, so it's okay for WAR to swap and pop 2 CDs (3 oGCD actions) to get the effect of what the other tanks spend 1 GCD on?

I'm not saying Defiance is broken, I'm saying we're paying a price for it being oGCD. And all stances on the tanks are balanced as is. But if the other tanks want their stance removed from the GCD, then we should also gain the same effect (immediate increase of 25% eHP without requiring additional heals/CDs) switching into Defiance. Fair is fair!

Wait so warriors are going to bitch about stance dancing... when it comes with not resource cost? Pld have a min cost in MP but has to unclick current stance to apply the other stance. Drk has to burn 1/3 of total MP pool to turn on our only stance which is tank stance.

In 3.1 they are adding a damage taken penalty to dps stances cause they hate you!
