Addressing Complaints about Warriors + Suggestions for Skill System

Possibly. Maybe one step at a time for cs. Just increase its range.

I definitely agree with that. Half the time it just misses unless you are standing on the target. Maybe make it auto aim to the closest enemy? I have not tanked extensively and do not know how that would change game play for tanks. A tanks point of view would be appreciated.

How did the skills work originally? I've only been playing about 6 months.

Horn's 2s shield used to be stackable. Imagine that in PvP. Now imagine full warrior teams.



Warriors are called tanks, but they are turret-less. A more suitable term would be 'meat-shield.' I always imagine a warrior being about to dish out massive amounts of damage in bursts. Not consistently like a rogue, but enough to be formidable.

Warriors are becoming obsolete because the other classes are gaining in survivability, the one important trait that previously distinguished a war. Rogues and mages have competitive armor/HP values not to mention the rogue's crazy dodge percentages. Maybe if elites were scaled, then warriors might be necessary.

last year when They promised a skill revamp, it was assumed that it would also bring balance to the classes. Nobody was happy then with the direction the game was heading (Rogue Legends) but they managed to appease us with the promise of proper skills that would make sense at the new level cap.

Fast forward to today. They reneged on their promise saying the changes necessary were too vast, and instead elected to keep the status quo and carry on. The ramifications are pretty evident. ANY changes they would make would be great, good or bad, but at least it would show they care enough to update the game and keep it viable.

Until then, my tank gets trotted out for some dailies, then gets put back in his rocking chair to yell at all the young whipper snapper rogues cruising by killing everything with a couple shots (Pve, PvP), being able to do proper crowd control with like a mage with traps and frost bow, casting a much superior shield with nekro than a warrior could ever dream of casting, and generally kicking butt in every category.

For those that say warriors are an integral part of the game, they really aren't. Elites wont change much either. Once the end gamers get geared up, they shed their warrior buddies and proceed as they usually do to run quick times and still enjoy the game.

Until then, If you are a warrior, get used to not running alot or pugging and hoping for the best, or make a rogue (skip the mage, he's like a bastard child of the rogue) and see all the friends you'll suddenly make, and all the parties that you'll get invited too!

Horn of renew and vengeful blood were pretty good in the old time. But sts nurfed those two skills due to complaints from a small group of rogues and mages.

sts can't do any thing about class balance, especially when most mod are playing rogues and dev play elite maps in God mode. They really need recruit some pro gamers to test the product, then we can talk about class balance.

Horn of renew would apply the invulnerability globe regardless if another teammate warrior already recently applied invulnerability globe. Warriors could constantly reglobe each other.

Instead of vb applying to teammates and user and requiring being hit to refill small mana and hp, it used to recharge large chunks of mana only without being hit and to the user only.

I hope STS will listen tho... it will take ages for them to adjust or add something up.
