Lunging Strike does this every once in awhile, too, especially on uneven terrain. It's just a thing we get to live with for now. Submit a ticket for it.

You do generate comparable threat in DPS build with enough gear (which isn't hard to get, honestly, even if you don't spend a dime or any AD in the AH). Threat isn't the main point of going DPS build - it's just a by product. The main difference is that through killing things quicker you actually exercise more control over…

If you open up your queue, and you click on the dungeon in the left hand list, it will show you the minimum gear score, which is how these dungeons are divided into tiers. Additionally, if you read the description of the dungeon, it will tell you what gear drops where. For instance, Throne of Idris tells you it has a…

Training Tomes for companions?

Some clarifications: The choice between strength, armor, and toughness only comes up if you are doing the turtle build. If you are doing a DPS build, you'll be skipping the tier 1 blocking talent, which will have you spend points in both strength and toughness. In the turtle build, HP is significantly less necessary…

I personally haven't hit a point yet where I'm deadweight, and I have T1's on farm (even still missing gear). In fact, as of a couple days ago, both Envy and Rokuthy thought this would be the best build for T2 and Castle Never - it looks like the last couple of dungeons up the adds on bosses to an obnoxious level, which…
-
Wow, there's a loaded question if I ever saw one. ;) I guess I have a couple of thoughts, in no particular order. 1. Rokuthy is a couple dungeons ahead of me. He said that he has one epic dungeon and Castle Never left. I haven't seen any confirmation of Epic's progress, only that as he understands it - full protection is…

Precisely.

You're human, so you have three extra points.

The first threatening rush gets me to the mobs before anybody else. Things are harder to manage if you don't get there first. While you can block mid animation on Enforced Threat, I find that I sometimes take one or two shots when it doesn't work correctly / I lag / I goof up - which drops the marks on those mobs, and I've…

When are we going to see training tomes? My rank 15 cleric is sad.
-
Look forward to hearing about it. With this build and a gear score of about 6100, I was rolling through Cloak Tower and Crypts. Hopefully it does well for you!
-
Running up to a fight, I open with Into The Fray. This gives everybody increased movement speed, and AP generation right from the start. I threatening rush the closest target, Enforced Threat almost immediately (since I'm trying to keep them as clumped as possible, this is before they start running after healers or…

It's slightly more than just that you almost always have a daily up. It's the debuff that comes along with your daily. That is almost always up, and if you are using the correct daily in the correct situation, you are putting that debuff on a ton of enemies.
-
Take whatever upgraded gear you can get while leveling up (without taking it from others, I should clarify). I had plenty of Crit and Armor Pen while leveling, because it was a dramatic increase over what it replaced. Gear priority only matters when you start getting much higher than 18.
-
You can agree or disagree with my point on toughness. The healing from clerics being % based is a great counter argument. And while I understand that the build in this one way doesn't seem to jive with the "solo tank in pugs" mentality - it really does. The amount of HP gained by throwing 3 points in toughness doesn't get…
-
A lot to respond to. Still going dwarf. 3 extra points would be okay, but not gamebreaking. I've also said many times over to play the race that makes you happy. Nothing is that different as to make it worthwhile. Str/Con for attributes. Threatening Rush is an at will power. Doing Epics with this build, and clerics are…
-
Defense > Recovery (up time on Into the Fray and quicker to the dailies) > Power/Deflection > Life Steal > Regeneration (largely interchangeable, one rewards you for staying active) > everything else. Movement isn't needed, because of Threatening Rush and Into the Fray. Critical Strike and Armor Pen don't really have a…
-
I can clarify in the original post. When I said 'flat' HP I was referring (even if the points give you a percentage) to the fact that its benefit is to just give you more hit points. I could have expanded on it in the original post, but (as you'll see) the explanation is lengthy and would have broken up the groove of the…
-
Bumping, because it's already on page 6. Good argument for having class specific sub forums. Would like Guardian Fighters to be able to see this and review it.
-
Once you get to the stage where you get Threatening Rush (At-Will, small rush, hits for moderate damage, marks the target and everything around it), aggro generation gets quite a bit easier. That free mark on everything gets you off to a good start.
-
Maybe people are going in and updating that, because that's not what's listed right now. Primary Constitution +1% Action Point Gain +2% Hit Points Secondary Strength +1% Guard Meter +1% Damage bonus +1% DoT Damage Resistance Dexterity +1% Resistance ignored +1% AoE Damage Resistance +0.5% Deflection Chance Edit: The Curse…

Con is listed a primary. Dex and Str are listed as secondary. I keep seeing damage reduction being mentioned as a component of Con, but I haven't seen it listed on the character sheet since BW2 (I purposefully checked for it). Just going off the in game character sheet: As a result, I was putting more emphasis on Str -…

I realize this is ignoring large sections of the debate, and I'm only pulling out a sliver. But in the debate of effective-but-boring vs. more-fun... Effectiveness is sexy. There is a certain poetry in what is simple but works. Let the wizards fling magic missiles and rings of frost. Let the rogues flash around the…

We're allowed to disagree with each other, as long as we don't personally insult each other. He took one thing I said as a personal insult, which it wasn't, and I respect him enough to clarify that I wasn't insulting him. I may believe he is wrong, but I don't want him to walk away from our conversation upset.
-
Not quite. I'm disagreeing with your premise that the differences are mathematically significant at all. You say "not insignificant" - I say not significant in the least. Everything I've said in this thread has been making that point. You still seem to be missing my point. I'm not saying that the races are exactly the…
-
Sounds insane. And that Griffon's Wrath will stunt a lot of their ability to stop you from doing it, since they'll eat three micro stuns. Gods, I'm getting excited about this. Let me know how it goes at high end PvP!!!
-
With all due respect, you're being disingenuous here. You are claiming that you said it wasn't a game breaker, when earlier in our conversation you were touting your ability to finish content 2% faster than me, based on 2% increased damage. This isn't a case of you changing your mind, clearly (because you are still…

I probably should just let this point go, but I really don't want people feeling like they have to roll with a particular type of race to be playing their Guardian Fighter "correctly." I want to show, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the statistical differences between the various races are largely inconsequential, so that…
