Warriors should be behind Rogues and Sorcerers in DPS, they were always meant to be have the least damage output and instead be the hardest to kill. And Warrior mana costs are still much lower than the Rogue, just not half anymore. Essentially, if you want to spam Chestsplitter and Skyward Smash now, you have to do something to compensate for your higher mana cost.

Here are a few things that will help

Put some points in Intelligence
Drink a Mana potion
Group with a Sorcerer that has trained and use Empowered Lifegiver
Get a pet that helps with Mana regeneration or increase Intelligence
Train and use Vengeful Blood

None of those will let you become completely independent of Mana again, but that was never the intent in the first place. In the meantime, we will keep monitoring game play and feedback to see if we have to make more adjustments but it's definitely too early to say.

Vengeful, as my officer bastok showed me is more of a setup move now..you have to get hit to get back ur mana. now its not an automatic regen like before..so tanks can actually tank...as for mages im still figuring that one out.
