Quick update on DPS Warriors for 1.3

[Gersh_Trion]

Hey guys,

Got some good news on the DPS warrior front. Atrius and Sweet, went over the feedback and numbers people were getting on PTS and it's pretty obvious we're not quite where we need to be, so you should be seeing further improvements come on line this week.

Ultimately we want warrior DPS to stay similiar to what it is on live today, but open up the number of soul combinations you can use to get there.

Once again thanks for all the feedback, one of us will be swinging by later this week with further change details as soon as we have them locked down.

Thanks!

Thank you, this is the post we've all been waiting for!

Good to hear, I look forward to seeing the changes

[Garethe]

Good to hear.

I don't mean to be rude but it takes you 4 days to realize that removing 48% of a warriors DPS puts them beneath where they need to be?

Whatever. At this rate, I guess we should be happy it didn't take 4 weeks... like the Fiery Burst bug.

I doubt it took them 4 days to realize something was wrong. But it's probably taken these last few days to verify the numbers being posted (ie make sure they weren't incorrect, either willfully or by bad testing practices) and begin analyzing where/what to change.

Thank you.

Cool man, good to know. Any hints on where the buffs might be hidden?

[Akio Asakura]

Well it's about damn time. I expect a 30% buff across the board for warriors; or something to that extent which isn't a small band-aid.

[Delolith]

Damn good news. Make sure you do not forget about all DPS souls.

[Hokonoso]

very nice, just hope they realize riftblade is quite a bit behind everything else, i mean if every ability did 2x the dmg now they still would probably be behind.

That is what I ment to do not forget all DPS souls. I was specifically referring to Riftblade although I did not name it;)

Yeah, but if they did that you could do the same damage in quest blues as you can in T2 raid loot. I think they want to keep Riftbladd as the entry level, don't need gear to dps, soul.

Excellent news.

This tells me you guys and us (the Warrior community) seem to be on the same page in terms of where Warriors should be headed.

The info was released last Friday, and was *****ed about all day Saturday and Sunday, an update was released today on Monday.

Guess what that's the WEEKEND, when many people (including, but not limited to Trion devs) have days off from WORK.

They aren't at your beck and call, and things needs to be talked about with more than one person before a post gets made informing you of what is happening.

Chill out.
