My thoughts on WAR Gauge Generation from 50-74

[HyperiusUltima]

So, SE gave us something new: Mythril Tempest. It's a nice add-on and gives WAR a nice AoE rotation to run through; however, there's an issue that's cropped up that I have problems with, and it's the fact that you won't be able to generate ANY gauge until Lv 74 with Mythril Tempest.

My question is: Why? You don't get Decimate til' 60, where WAR AoE ramps up a lot. You generate only 20 gauge with Mythril Tempest, but without the trait it's basically gimping your gauge and you might as well be better off using your single target combo for Chaotic Cyclone at 72 instead of Mythril Tempest(despite how it helps with Storm's Eye Management).

Considering how they've changed when we generate gauge(Lv 35 for Single Target, 74 for AoE), it's a GIGANTIC gap between 50 ARR all the way to 74, which makes no sense to me.

- PLD can generate its Gauge off of Autos alone.
- DRK already has a buff that they get using Flood of Darkness at a resource cost.
- GNB generates resources off of Demon Slice combo.

Why can't WAR generate resources off of its own AoE combo at 40? It doesn't make sense in terms of design and it breaks the reasoning of using Mythril Tempest combo pre-74.

If anything, moving the trait "Mastering the Beast" to somewhere in the 40-50 range would be reasonable and not break the flow at low level. You still have strong abilities at 70, but your AoE pales in comparison to the other tanks without it being there.

So please SE, when you go to release Savage, adjust WAR's Mythril Tempest to either have the trait for gauge generation moved to the 40-50 range, or just put the 20 gauge generation on Mythril Tempest and get rid of the trait.

Its really the same with all tanks. Their aoe is not that good until 70+.

While warrior does not generate any gauge until lvl 74, they do have 2 charges of infuriate to use for aoe and of course 2 combos.

Paladin is stuck with 2 combo skills until 72, none of their gauge abilities do anything for aoe damage.

Dark knight only has 1 combo skill, however they do have lots of ogcd skills to use during aoe. However like with warrior, they cannot generate gauge outside of bloodweapon, and their mp regen is very limited until lvl 72.

And you mention Gunbreaker gaining resources off of demon slice combo, but forgot that they cannot use that resource for aoe until lvl 72.

So TLDR warrior is fine in aoe
