Warrior weapon request

[Gawain]

As discussed in this thread, http://forum.shardsofdalaya.com/showthread.php?t=17315, warrior weapons are off balance since the agro change.

Due to the changes in agro generation, I am requesting the devs to consider an increase in dmg and delay of the progressive line of warrior weapons to fit the style of the new agro generation.

The progressive line of warrior weapons were apparently originally designed combining the 2 factors of +hate per swing and procs that generate agro, whether they be damage procs or straight agro.

The changes have knocked the weapons out of the environment for which they were designed as the factor of +hate per swing has been replaced by ratio determining the agro.

My thoughts on this are pretty simple. Weapons like the Wailfury, Patriarch, and Flamescar used to be class defining and essentially the most sought after agro weapons for warriors in relative tiers. If the staff would rather leave it so these weapons are not as potent as they were for the tiers and make them no longer class defining for their locations, they're probably ok as they stand (except the Flamescar, but that has its own problems). They still put out pretty substantial agro, they just aren't as relatively dominant as they used to be, and you're going to eat more damage from riposte. I would personally love to see these changed so I could stick with the hate procs and not have to take the extra damage.

The recent changes to traditional warrior weapons are greatly appreciated.

Although I do think I'll stick with my Cane of Calefaction in the offhand (as opposed to Patriarch) as long as I have enough overcap aggression to compensate.
