In my opinion the IB doesn´t need more aoe abilities, that´s the roll of an IB. He is a single target tank. And that´s good for me.
But it seems like we only need the defensive buffs like parry. All other abilities are kinda worthless cause the buffs fe strenght, toughness and armor don´t stack with pots, auras and healer buffs. And that´s the main issue. If they change that, IB would be a great tank. It would be only for our oathfriend anyway, Atm it´s useless to do more then klick on the buffs and just run as AP battery.
I really wanna see they change the buff stack, even if it´s a small amount. Since years i only read patches for other classes and the IB stays in the dark.
I'm wondering where this parry buff needs to be put so that the dwarf won't take it, because now the defensive IB has such a level of protection that no tank has. You can jump from the wall into a red porridge, ask what the weather is in IC and get out of there with 3/4 health without straining the heal.
On the other hand, 2H are deprived of protection mainly due to they take 1/3 trees, and Seasoned Veteran only works on a block. It would be super cool if this tactic worked on parry even at the cost if it was swapped with a Shield Mastery.
Yes, true. The IB is very tanky. I just wanna see our ability/buffs stack with others. Atm it´s kinda pointless to use real abilities.
Resist and toughness buff against buff or aura from healers and knight, armor and strenght buff against WP buff or pots. There is no benefit to use abilities.
Punishing knock tactic only usable in small groups, useless in wb cause aoe dmg.
We IB´s could be so much more. As i said, even if our buffs stack for a small amount. That would be great.
If i read the tooltips i get the feeling i talk to kids. "yes, papa, but ..."
