given our "heroic" epic:

its quite obvious, that soe doesnt want us to tank shit (guards get 5% dmg reduce on their proc, sk/bruiser get a taunt proc)

but... i guess i wont go hit the betrayal starter and do what soe wants every zerker to do... but instead ill prolly just put the zerk to rest until maybe somewhen around 2012 they realize, that eq2 contains more than 4 classes...

oh and there are the rare occasions where we need tanks actually beeing able to keep aggro (while doing fun raids in EoF), which could possibly lead me to do it...

zerkers are dps

This is basically what the ex-top zerkers wanted as a wep, not a defensive wep, but rather an offensive one so our aggro control is better. But honestly the procs are nothing amazing, neat but not different. SK has a unique proc , guard sounds so-so, just from what you say 5% less dmg (i would guess for 15s and 1.8 proc rate?), so mobs in VP would be doing 500dmg or so less dmg per swing. A unique proc would be nice though, hopefully the raided version will have some of that. Can't say i'm surprised about any of it, but i guess i wouldn't mind the wep since i haven't raided in a while.

I don't agree, based on the proc rate being 1.8 times a minute, neither of the weapons (neither zerker nor guardians) are worth a shit against Soulfire for tanking encounters where u struggle, and neither are awesome DPS weapons (they don't come any way close to Witchdoctor's Doomblade nor to Sky Gazer Tooth for dps), so all in all they both suck

Let's see the raid version, these are like Lucanic Gladius for SoD (uber for non-raiders, crap for HC Raiders)



ps: yes i know our raid weapon will be not much better than this, while guardians will probably be way overpowered, it's just pointless to whine before-hand when there's no need to

Did Dreww just say that everything I say is possibly true or possibly a lie? I think self ownage is more than a possibility

Personally, I like it.

I'm glad that they gave us a DPS weapon. I already have a good chunk of avoidance/mitigation, and my gear is still from Tier 1/Tier 2 only.

I think the reward was appropriate for the amount of time/work invested.

I'm satisfied tbh.

this weapon sucks ass easily - all i can hope is they add a better proc ratio, longer duration, more da, and a half decent defensive ability... not the +4 defense bs that was nice in t6.... to the real deal.

please dont give us another fucking 101 dmg rating 3 delay wep like every other transmute wep that drops in rok
