Warrior Class

[Drave]

So, like in EQ2 the Guardian/Zerker class would be probally the perferred tank for a zone if you had a choice right?

Does the Warrior have some DPS as well as taunts? i.e. abilities that you could do to lay down some love taps between your taunts or while you wait for recasts?

Some suggestions, may be good may not be, just a few ways to make the Warriors a little more favored over the others for tank without destroying the other classes, keep in mind im not able to play on beta so maybe this is already in effect but here it goes:

1) Give warriors more taunts, stronger taunts, OR maybe even lesser recast times for the Warrior.
2) Let the Warrior have the ability to completely lock down aggro for 10 seconds or so with a 2.5 min recast which would be pretty nice on boss fights.
3) Let the Warrior have a higher-set STR and AGI bonuson items as opposed to when a palidin wears it, say an item gives 10 str 5 agi, and 200 Mit if a Pally wears that item but when a Warrior puts it on it gives 13 str, 9 agi, 300 Mit ect. Sigil could find a clever formula for it but i thought that would be nice, its not a dramatic increase just a little somethin to get the warriors up there when competing with Lay on Hands and Fear (Again i have never played on beta so keep in mind im just throwing numbers out there but you get my point)
4) Warriors have some cool buff that 20% of all hate regenerated by the whole group would be hate twards the Warrior, like a group ammends!! FTW

These might be decent suggestions but then again might not, as always, though, stay safe and thank you for reading

Rumor has it that taunts are pretty broken atm within beta. If they were to enact a couple of these for warriors, then the problem would be solved. Very interesting. However, I question the balancing issues and that is something that only numbers will be able to tell (and the influx of information after the NDA is vanquished.)

We don't want any favouring of any class in any archtype over another.

Begone, take your ways with you.

hrmm .. I just prey that the Warrior Class itself is more then just defensive stance tanking like WoW was.

Sigil has confirmed that Warriors will be doing the most amont of melee dmg out of all the defensive fighters so.
I wish these beta people could talk haha
