Improved 2H Knight Suggestions
Posted: Sat Mar 20, 2021 6:29 pm
This is a redo of my initial balance suggestions posted here. I realise now that my original suggestions were a bit to close to complete reworks rather than balance suggestions.
The premise is the same:
Knight is an awesome snb tank. Yet it is still poorly represented on Order, a faction that is already struggling with tank population (as seen on the latest Q&A).
SnB is fine. Doesn’t need anything more: but even people that play utility roles like to have a viable dps spec to blow steam, and not everyone has time to invest in gearing up multiple characters. At the same time, the following suggestions are also meant to make 2H knight more fun to play. While the class's primary role will always be that of SnB tank (as it should), having a fun 2H spec will make more people chose to main this class; people who will, willingly or due to necessity, join warbands as SnB.
Here you can see an image of the proposed changes and below that you can read more about them in detail.
Myrmidia's Fury, damage increased by 20%. (A total of 114; from 570 to 684, based on Career Builder values)
Runefang switches to 11 point tactic in Path of Conquest.
Focused Mending moved to 11 point tactic in Path of Glory.
Efficient Swings moved to 7 point Glory.
Phew! Made it through an entire knight balance proposal and didn't once mention Mighty Soul!
Wait.
