GWF Determination

jackharper

Hello
I would ask when you do something with "Determination". I have few character but I prefer GF, when i play a lot of time i see GWF who dont need tank on bosses or stronger enemies (except the most difficult bosses like orcus). It's embarrassing when GWF use Determinadion (i think thay use it 70-80% time in fight) and they have insensitivity for all stun, overthrow, lifting etc. additionally in determination GWF have faster attack and increased damage resistance. For me this is a the most boring char of all, but I understand a lot of ppl like this char. I like when in my party dps have huge att and we do dung quickly. But why only GWF is privileged. Maybe change this skill only faster att and DMG res, or only insensitive. I dont want nerf GWF, but after GF/OP changes ppl say something about balance.

I know just a lot of people will begins screaming "dont touch GWF" but I think that anyone who's played/play neverwinter know in this game 50% players is GWF and the rest is the rest. Maybe it's a time to change something?

GWF is basically a combination of a D&D Barbarian and a Fighter. Unstoppable = Rage, same functionalities, except all MMO aspects replace the resistance to different types of damage and addition to your own damage. It's the core mechanic of the class, it's an off-tank, if you strip the class off of secondary role (a GWF for example is DPS/off-tank, a conq GF is tank/DPS, most classes have two roles, some got more use, some not really) then you might as well remove the whole class altogether. It's a melee character, it's a squishier meat shield that cannot dodge, if you don't give it resistance how is it expected to survive and contribute anything to the party at all? Food for thought.

It's not 50% of players who are GWF... maybe 47.5% at most.

But seriously, the GWF is getting a nerf soon enough. I hope it's not too bad, because the last serious review of the class made them really bad for like a year or more later. I would expect a hard knock to the Destroyer feats capstone (maybe chop it in half) and the Hidden Dagger power... but probably not too much more than that, unless they are serious about an Instigator spec revival; which could be nifty. I wouldn't mind a respec into Instigator if they reworked some stuff and made it interesting again.
