Lets nerf WAR :D

[MeeYow]

Exodus: IB uptime is 50% higher than rampart, plus it is a 300 potency attack, heal and a significant TP saver AND can be converted to more damage if mitigation is not needed. The only cost is the WAR has to know the fight to manage stacks, which any capable DRK will also know the fight for cooldown management, and the PLD probably has to know better for things like using shelltron on fluid swing.

IB is by far the best non invincibility 'cooldown' in the game.

As for RI and bulwark, firstly, garunteed mitigation is MUCH better because of the buster meta. Even if a PLD uses a 27% kite the 60% increase gives effectively 16.2% mitigation whilst the 80%+ RI parry increase gives 16% mitigation. Equal for a Large shield, worse for all other types. Not to mention that raw intuition has 33% more duration AND half the cooldown AND generates wrath.

Also, Thrill of battle paired with Convalescence has the ability to turn two not quite mitigation (increasing EHP AND decreasing curing required) cooldowns into one legitimate one with an effective mitigation of 17%

Much like Awareness is well paired with Raw Intuition.

It is sad that some of PLDs skills feel much more at home on WAR.
