    New Warrior Soul: BROSTORMEX

    "Your mastery over the elements have been honed to deadly precision."

    New Buff "BroStorm" Cast: instant Duration: 24 hours Deals 100000 damage over 45 meter radius. Dispelling Brostorm will automatically cast ability "DoubleRainbow"

    New Buff: "DoubleRainbow" Cast: instant, Duration: 60 secs Deals the same accumulated damage of a full duration "Brostorm" but also adds a stun and silence. Also will cause warrior to do a random tab target and cast RW with no cooldown. Animation: Sky over the wf will change to reflect a rift of each element opened and active, with pink sugar frosted cupcakes raining down.

    These are still in testing, has caused server crashes and uncontrollable e-rage over the internets. Forums will be disable during testing and inevitable launch of this new soul.

    It's a tank soul!

    OR

    a dps soul that even more somehow ties you to a healer.

    I'm looking forward to:

    A 5th tanking soul
    Another pet class that can't compete
    Another 20 gimp range spec, in which the tool tip is wrong and its actually 10 range
    Another melee dps soul because naming abilities differently is win

    These are our only options if we dont get a healer soul.

    I could totally see a ranged-weapon based soul, honestly.

    Redone warlord and beastmaster.


    That sounds better than any new soul anyway.

    What I would like to see what would make me excited: Healing Soul
    Reason: We can't be expected to be the only class that can ONLY DPS and tank.

    Another one I can see, for the same reason above, is a super lame Support soul.

    How they would work this into the current raid set up tells my gut that they won't do it.

    Most likely? Ranged DPS soul or Healing soul. Healing soul because it would diversify a stale calling. Oh, you're a warrior? Well, we need healers. We have a tank already and tons of DPS, you're SOL!!

    Why am I against a ranged DPS soul? It doesn't add anything exciting to the game. It just makes warriors DPS from ranged which rogues and mages do very well already. It would allow us the opportunity to DPS from range, but, lets face it, if we did equal DPS in range as rogues or mages there would never be any warriors running melee. If we didn't do equal DPS in range we would never go ranged so it's a catch 22 that Trion will try to avoid like the plague.

    Long story short: Healing soul would add the most to the game in a positive way, it would diversify the warrior calling and warriors would have something truly new and shiny to play with, and it's one step closer to world domination.

    I wouldnt mind seeing warriors with an elemental range soul.
    Having water arrows, fire arrows and earth arrows (maybe via buffs?) which all could do something different?

    Water arrows buff causes all bow attacks to hit multiple targets for a percentage of the damage depending on charges or points or w/e you call those little sword thingies builders. Maybe add 2 more targets to each range attack (or bow attack) Probably do mid damage overall?


    Fire arrow buff causes all bow attacks to deal fire damage, could just be simple additional damage per point. Probably used for st attacks.


    Poison arrow buff causes poison/bleeding that gets stronger per application?

    Throw in an st root, a push back and a channel and you got yerself a ranged soul.

    I see plenty of games where warriors use bows, and since you -can- equip them, why not use them?

    There will be no healing soul.

    Salve,

    Range is not a warriors job we have already a lot range skills we could use 1 gap closer more like the RS soul of the rogue but what i would love to see is an support role with med healing capabilities like the cleric justicar soul, or a change of the beastmaster to an support role and new dmg soul that is like RB only that RB goes on ST and the new soul on AE or vice versa, something like that would be nice.

    Or they could actually fix current warrior souls and make warlord a true support, and give viability to all tank souls by making all mitigation high in the trees/in shared roots, then diversify the DPS souls and give warriors a dps soul that uses their bow/guns and synergizes well with riftblade.

    Most rogues seem to want a healing soul so they can do everything, giving reason for people to ***** to make them subpar at everything (like QQ over clerics that still happens), but I think they should get a second tank soul with guardian phase normalized between it and riftstalker so rogue tanks don't have to spend so many points on dps abilities to tank.

    Clerics are for sure getting a new dps soul that synergizes well with inquisitor (livestream of dude killing colossi, definitely weren't all currently existent abilities in that RANGED DPS SOUL,

    For mages all I can do is hope they get a tank soul. YAY TANKS! Or a melee mage dps soul so they can know what it's like to have useless specs they want to play.
