[Swordmaster] AP starvation

Post#1 » Thu Nov 17, 2016 12:27 pm

This is a proposal for changing/adding some of the unused tactics/skills for swormaster to help with the AP starvation for this class.
The difference between Black Orc and Swordmaster in AP starvation can be seen in the skills/tactcs that are affecting AP:

Black Orc :
- AP drain skill Path of Da Brawler
- Base class skill Get'Em 20% more AP regen for whole group for 15 sec 1min cd
- Tactic 40 AP gain on bellow activation Path of Da Toughest
- Base Tactic Bring 'Em On on parry go in last stance (no ap cost for skills in last stance) no cd
Swordmaster :
- Ap drain skill Path of Khaine

From my experience i can have 2-3 rotations on my swordmaster before i have to pause and regain some AP, if i get hit by ap drains...i pretty much need to wait to have AP for 1 skill then skip next stance and get to perfect stance to hit with no AP cost skill.

Solution:
As swordmasters we have a bunch of unused tactics and skills like Phoenix Wing, Deep Incision, Redirect Force, Forcefull Shock that could be modified to lessen the AP starvation.

1. A change to Redirect Force to work like Bring 'Em On (keeps in mind the offensive nature of SM) but add a 10-15 sec cd on it.
2. A change to Phoenix Wing from increased hate to aoe AP leech (keeps all utility skills in second stance)

I hope im not over the top with my proposed changes for Swordmaster :P

Regards,

Arathuil

Declining. Swordmasters don't really have AP issues unless all they do is spam WoDS.
