hmm...
Im curious if a planar blade build that uses RW every 10 secs for the buff is viable enough as a high dps contender. With the buff to fire dmg on the RB crystal, ill have to hit up the PTS tonight to check 51 RB builds again.

Remember that you're going to have a 400% dmg mod already. So 20% is barely anything. If it still uses a GCD, it's a dps loss. Now also a dps loss to use PB.Originally Posted by batou079

"Slayer's Bearing now starts at 3% and increases 3% per point with Intense Training."
Does this mean Slayer's Bearing is down from 25% to 12%?

If they would consider changing the weapon master talent to a 3pt instead of 5pt with 33/66/100 for follow ups, the 2H RW spec could potentially survive this patch. But they would have to add 2 poitnts to the tree somewhere as well. Not like this would actually happen but hey, its a though.
What would that do? The RW build would still be 38/26/2...

51/13/2 potentially, with PS/RW/IB. I'm not certain it would be completely viable with that few points in Para though. Just postulating about something other than PS spam.

With the change to weaponmaster I'm wondering if it would be better to have the proc happen instantly rather than having a delay on it.

nerfs across the board... and a couple small buffs to ... "even" things out?

I'd imagine so - I'd rather not have to deal with carrying it over everytime.

I don't mind having to come up with new builds and new rotations, heck even going after new gear. My main issue is I sincerely hope our dev understands how far behind we are to the other classes in ST damage (with comparable PAs/gear) and doesn't just nerf things outright without finding balance (see Slayers nerf).

The point that I think Atrius is trying to get to is where Every dps build has to include at least 16 champion.
Slayers and Frenzied are really powerful abilities. The way the changes are rolling, a RB-Para build could become equally viable as a RB-Champ and a para-champ. The point is to give us options.

As for the changes, to be honest, they are desperately needed in order to get some actual choices (and have more than just our weapons feel like proper upgrades) and I'm also glad we have so much time to give feedback. But when you've built things on shaky foundations, you can't expect there to not be a shake-up when you tackle said foundations. Something's gotta give and we will rebuild.

I thought 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, and 1.7 were all make or break patches?
