Thread: Warrior 4.0 Concerns

Regarding stance changing, and the penalty that was imposed: I realize that my opinion will be quite unpopular, but I held the belief that this was one of the changes to Warrior that should have been in 3.0. Warrior for all of 2.0 either had to spend their stacks or just drop them to go back to doing damage after tanking. And many warriors didn't even change stances. (I can't blame them, without a stance WAR is dull!) But, Warrior is far from broken because of this. It is actually fixed. It is everything else that is too much, leave the stance changing alone.

penalty on offensive tanking a boss?
why will this ever be a thing?, this is the Golden times for offensive tanking since healers got DPS now scale on MND,if there is a time for offensive stance tanking this is it.

back to warrior concerns:
So many changes the game bring now but war change is too much, there is a few things that must be change to keep war fun an rewarding to play.
1- remember I use to dance all night for free? too bad the club charge an entrance fee now.give us back stance dancing, this is a war thing for 2 years, why change it now? or instead of using rage make it use MP, at least we will have a use for it.
2-Storm path effect is our group ability , is an identity to war to apply this to bosses/raid groups, why take it?, i understand it goes to tank skills, but this is our raid utility reduce 5% but keep it there, this make rotations an planing a lot more engaging.
3-bloodbath/mercy stroke really ? MRD skills i been using since day 1 back in 2010..like take one of the 2 , but not the 2 of them, geez what im playing PLD? i want a WAR.
4-yep why punch me in the face with shake it off?, i been getting pacify for 6 years an now you give me something to use for issues yet you reduce my berserk an remove pacify,maybe for the best but anyways you get my point, are you laughing at me right now?
5-FINALLY SHOULDER TACKLE thats how i call it because i use to cross class skill with monk until you trow me in the pack, finally i can charge to my enemies yahooo this is great why will it not be good?,...haa wait a sec it cost 20rage...hoo what i shame i guess i will sprint instead.
6-Warriors are born, not made...you removing a lot of things that make us Wars,--- war identity on a weird position, the amount of skill lost for self sustains heals is incredible, we got 6 fell cleves..horray wi will also be happy with 5 cleves( an berserk 40% & pacify so I can shake it off!) if we get to keep our skills you took away

"Potency decreases as own HP decreases."

Does not mention the amount but I would imagine that to be at it's best potency you would need to be at full HP or near full HP. I really dislike skills that rely on healers paying too much attention to the tanks HP.

The Paladin version was bad because of the HP penalty and the Warrior version is even worse. Even more now that we've lost most of our self healing abilities.

Edit: Should have removed the HP penalty from Spirits Within but kept it on Upheaval WITH blood bath as a means to heal. That, I think, would have made more sense. Or even add a healing factor to Upheaval that will allow for HP management kinda like Inner Beast heals.
