Really some nice ideas..
I like the teleport attack focus idea, and it sure would be nice if our Myth could make one of our temps raidwide, like the Bard's do..
Would make us even more wanted in raids..

Also with the incoming changes, the no damage offhander that helps on aggro/defensive skills is a VERY nice idea for sure..

Yesterday someone in the allmonks channel said that LU51 is a myth, starting to think the same, but even so, I'm trying to prepare for it the best way possible, with pure dps and pure tank gear.

These are effects that can and should be added to eq2. I actually posted this list in like January/februrary of 2008. Oddly enough some of these effects appeared during the end of rok beginning of tso. Effects in yellow were added in some form in TSO.

Toughen X-absorbs up to an additional 10% of critical damage
Slowed Poisen X- up to 100% to duration of damage based dots cast on self (allows caster more time between dot ticks IE spreads out the damage more)

Shock X- 5% each rank up to 50% to break stuns and allows caster to cast (but still rooted) at a much slower rate instead of an outright resist (+300% casting slowed).

Minimum Base deflection chance- This Effect they can add to other high end items. It is the deflection effect on our mythical that adds to the MINIMUM BASE defleciton chance. This is completely uncontested avoidance that works in addition to the defensive stance minimum. Making a bruisers minimum deflection chance score w aa's up to 27% (not including regular deflection chance %).

All great ideas.

Making any of those raidwide is totally overpowered. Self buffs logically upgrade to group buffs not raidwide. Raidwide close mind would be the only one I think the devs might even consider, but seeing as they love their control effects so much I highly doubt they'd ever do it. Groupwide close mind is just sanctuary - but without the needed precast penalty. Would be cool.

Wizzies get double spells but they have no auto attack to speak of. Auto attack is a significant portion of melee dps and it is affected by multiple mods (haste,dps,crit,da,flurry) whereas wizards only have their spells (crit,+spell damage,casting speed). Adding double CA mechanics, while not overpowered as far as -bruisers- go, would only further increase the disparity between melee dps and mage dps in the long run.

Flurry seems to be on its way in as a mechanic, adding something to a buff is usually a precursor to eventually adding it to gear. Still, if you think about it.. the top two dps classes both got new mechanics added to the game in their mythicals, each one affecting their DPS significantly.. If either of those were to become available to everyone, I think they'd be pretty aggravated

Crabbok

just like monks were aggrivated when bruisers got a mit increase and other classes got strikethrough?

I don't think it woudl be unfair to give flurry to either extremely rare items, or wait until next expac to start putting it on items. After the level cap is raised, and our current mythicals are no longer the end-all be-all of weapons, then maybe we'll see this stuff on more gear.

Of course I'm assuming they will have epic 2.0's or something similar to replace our epics. Some of the effects are irreplacable, such as bards etc.

i would like to see some accuracy procs on our gear, and would also like to see them scrap lu51 and put the +- hate gain onto the gear already in game.

Corydonn

I'd also like the 4 set to be changed to something more useful.

Focus effects :

100 hands : Adds two extra hits to 100 hands

Savage assault : Adds an extra hit to savage assault

Gut punch : Removes flanking position from gut punch ( tbh why do i hafta sneak behind my opponent to hit their gut...which is in front. )

Fury of the bruiser : Makes all CA's with a knockdown effect function like double stomp ( extra damage is target if alrdy knocked down. )

Body flail : adds a dot effect to body flail

Knockout : adds a 2nd proc to Knockout, does 2/5ths of original damage, procs only on auto attacks.

Knockout : increases duration by 5 seconds

Knockout : Increases casting/recovery speed of caster while knock out is in effect by 25% ( or lower if thats OP or w/e )


Lighting fist : Change completely to a 30 sec buff/45 sec recast | While active increases casting/recovery speed of caster by 25% ( or lower if its OP ) I feel this change wud greatly help us in that we are like the only fighter that doesnt get casting/recovery buffs iirc, tho i guess Chi helps, but thats an AA and is only 30secs every 6 mins or so. Also the recovery CA from agi AA line helps but again thats an AA /shrug

Lighting fist : Change proc to an AOE proc, increase to 10 triggers.

Thats all i got for now, obviously some effects shud be raid only, while others i think cud be on group/x2 zones.


Also i was trying to think of ways to help with AOE aggro since were "aoe tanks" supposedly.
