Thread: Live Letter 3.2 tank changes, vit effects tank attack

I just realized WAR's damage output will be insane in defiance now.

Why do people keep saying this? Defiance is a direct HP increase and doesn't affect VIT at all.

It's sort of an understandable confusion, since VIT raises your HP and people usually naturally associate the two with eachother. But yeah, it doesn't work like Hawk's Eye (+DEX), it works like... Thrill I guess would be the best comparison? I dunno.

The innate -25% damage dealt reduction says hi, still. I mean if you're saying this means no need to go into Deliverance, no, that's not the way to play WAR.

With tank damage scaling off VIT, there is no longer any excuse for a tank doing poor DPS. HP vs DPS is no longer an argument. You have both. Get to work.
With tanks having so much extra HP now, there is no longer any excuse for a healer not to contribute significant DPS. Tank has 30k HP. Don't just stand there. Get to work.

Pretty much strengthens the idea that we are all DPS, just tanks and healers have extra responsibilities.

From a tank viewpoint: This is well. All the better if this makes securing enmity easier.

Paladin viewpoint: I wonder what SE is planning. Waiting and seeing.

Healer viewpoint: The less often HP drops like a stone, the better. I can't say that Leeroy Jenkins is dead, but he may be less active.

So... Food will directly affect our main stat now? Food gives direct vit but no other primary stat. Inb4 food to directly give HP instead of vit :<
Note: Maybe someone mentioned this? Not enough time to read the whole thread D:

Shhh! Dont give any tips for SE

Hope it brings tank dps down a ton. Warrior should be about half dps of the weakest dps which is bard or machinist.
