KOTBS - Path of Conquest

Post#1 » Sun Jan 23, 2022 1:38 pm

Let me get straight to the point, this path is not only deprived of viable means of achieving ''tank levels of dps'', in addition to this it contains an obvious balance flaw (1).

(1)Overpowering Swing [Tactic] is available at level lvl 22 or 7 point investment, the skill it modifies [Arcing Swing] is only available at lvl 40! Therefore this tactic is 100% useless before lvl 40 or when it is available to be picked up. No equivalent flaw exists for any of the other tank classes left-tree mastery paths.

Proposal: Overpowering Swing [Tactic] gets a second component in addition to existing one at lvl 40(same as Chosen Oppressing Blow [Tactic ] ) . This will lead to a logical left-tree power progression and at the same time address that KOTBS Conquest path is not viable for ''tank levels of dps''.

1 a) In addition Overpowering Swing converts Myrmidia's Fury to elemental channel. (This is the most logical, mirror approach to Chosen tactic, scale Myrmidia's Fury accordingly to balance it)
1 b) In addition Myrmidia's Fury ignores 25% of the victims armor. (Worth a try, still seems weak)
1 c) In addition whenever Myrmidia's Fury crits, critical strike chance is increased for x seconds. (this must be 10%, yes Knight 2 -hand dps is that poor)

These are just a few suggestions, creativity is the only limiting factor.

Regarding Knight's ''utility'' by all means reduce it a bit. Few knight mains would ever mind if slice through or something was nerfed down to 2 targets, that is the opinion of other classes that regard Kotbs as an aura/utility slave to them or hostile destro biased opinions. Please just balance this class with the rest of the tank classes that all have a viable dps support spec, it's not fair at all and an embarrasment to the class/lore. Thank you.
