Im starting a thread, to let ppl know wich things will/might change in the upcomming patch 1.6. The warrior dev have been very active the last 2 days giving answers to the warrior community on their forums.
Som of the changes is summed up in the start of this post:
forums.riftgame.com/rift-general-discussions/classes-telara/warrior-discussion/270476-1-6-warrior-changes.html
Some of the things that's been said from the warrior dev, Atrius:
- They will try and put the warrior tanking souls more in line, so all should be equally good, but still with their specials like, the paladin got his retaliation and heals on them, the warlord will still have their group/raid buffs, the reaver will still have their DoT's and the void knight will still be able to drain mana and use pacts.
So atm they're messing around with the stats of each of the tanking souls on the PTS.
So a quick sum up, the 51 VK will not be "The Only" tank spec anymore.
- Surging Energy have finally been fixed on the PTS, giving it the right numbers for 1/2 (25% instead of 75%) Though not sure if this will be going to live with a hotfix or when 1.6 is released (the patch notes will hopefully tell us, unlike other times)
- Trion are aware of warrior physical dps is lacking behind (in general in pvp, but pve only finishers). And they will keep a close eye on it especially since they've fixed surging energy, wich will be a huge loss for alot of dps's.
If i find other changes / fixes being mentioned by Trion i will try and post them in here to keep all of u up to date, in hope that noone will get dissapointed
If u should find any changes that i haven't written down in here, then feel free to post them.
