First off if ive missed something obvious my apologies for being a noob and slacker.

I have heard hints and tid bits that since the proposed or planned fighter revamp has been benched for the mid or long term that we will be bolstered as a class a bit. So....

Are guardians being un-nerfed / unbalanced back to the state they were in before they made us more balanced or less overpowered compared to the other fighter classes? If I remember correctly this was when they changed our mythical, nerfed our dps etc...

Ive been told by a few guildys and friends that they read this somewhere in a dev thread but havent been able to find it myself. Any feedback is most welcome.

Short Answer? No

Longer Answer? No, but the tank changes haven't been scrapped completely and have merely been taken back to the drawing board to be started afresh. Give it another 4 months :P

Maybe I wasnt clear enough on my question. Im not asking about the fighter revamp, personally I hope it doesnt come down the pike but im sure it will. Guardians got the balance/nerfing a while back and had heard they were going to bring us back to the state we were in before said balance/nerf from awhile back.... (mythical change, dps nerf)

they rebalanced class specific TSO gear a little, but nothing has really changed.

I know. Let me reiterate my answer: No.

Let me now also reiterate my longer answer: They have not made any move to restore Guardian's dps/hate/mythical as it was pre TSO because... the tank changes haven't been scrapped completely and have merely been taken back to the drawing board to be started afresh. Give it another 4 months.

My bad Badger I read your first response as just referring to the fighter revamp mess SOE created for themselves. I knew it was a fools hope to lust after pre-tso uberness but hey....

I think he is talking about our DPS nerf, the loss of 35 double attack and various other smaller DPS changes to guards.

Those changes were NOT rolled back as were the other changes.

Ower

imo they dont need bring our AA back... They need to nerf the crusader AA. That spell crit is way OP aswell imo... And now we will have loads of crusaders coming here saying we need both skills so stfu... Well i dont fucking care since they put both spell crit and melee crit on most of the fucking items now days...

They need to look at our myth again aswell. the immune thingy is great... but the crusader AA is far more superb over that one... So it needs something more to be inline with the others.

Other than that i find our class in great shape...

You have the same mythical I have... you know, the one that never procs immunity on mobs you need it on, but procs on almost every single swing on stupid gimp trash?

Oh, and there's a jewelry item that procs more and has more immunities available from a TSO raid mob which is > the stupid proc on our mythical.

Disclaimer: proc rates are from my experience, your milage may vary.
