So I read the Twitter, because I had nothing better to do at the moment.First note the underlined word. Generally that word is used by Square to mean "Ha, we really don't have anything planned, but want to make you think we do so you don't get pissed that we ignored your job of choice." All I could think was "Hey, after eight years Square still doesn't seem to know a thing about Warrior." I mean, seriously. I don't know about any of you, but I was always perfectly capable of tanking for short periods of time. Hell, I could tank long periods of time with sub par gear, but it had more to do with support and cure nuking than anything.

It does make me interested on exactly what they'd add, though I doubt it'll be anything spectacular. Something silly like Provoke II, I'm betting. Just hoping its something 50+.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a native CE hate tool or native damage mitigation (defender does not count).

A really powerful % damage cut ability that runs like Defender or something similar combined with Retaliation would be the perfect tanking tool.

For WAR to be a more effective end game tank well need to see some adjustments to shield and parry defensive abilities as well. WAR should be able to tank better than they can. I'd like to see more agro building abilities and enhancements to -DMG taken and increases to Parry and Shield ability.

60 points between A+ and B, assuming the current leveling trends continue from 76 to 99.

It pretty much guarantees upcoming changes to the combat system.

[quote=Solrain]The first thing that came to my mind when I read that announcement:

New TANKING ability: VIT and AGI are increased while STR and DEX are decreased."[/quote Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Holy shiet!


Less posting when srsly tired!

Eww.

I would like it red, like AF1. I look cute in red.

Just hope the leg parts dont leave my butt out. Or that it doesnt have those stupid things that the SH has in the hips, they make my hips look larger than they are.

10 bucks it will be the ares set, re-skinned to look like the hauby set. I'm not wearing it unless it has the blood of my foes on the shoulder spikes. And a never-ending beer in one of my hands (preferably both hands). I guess a beer helmet could work too, but that might be too much to ask for.

Also, instead of when mobs get within range and play the battle music. They need to make it so my theme song plays whenever I get near someone.
