A lot of damage, ranged, cannot be dodged. This is a TR power.
A GWF would be wearing a 40 pound sword, a metal armour, fifteen daggers, and run faster than Hussein Bolt?
Devs please explain.

    While I hate the name of the power and the little leap back. I like its strength and its probably the only good ranged damage dealer we have, I'd rather it be some sort of sonic boom from our sword swing, or a roar. but not going to complain.

    Why does it matter to you anyway? this is the PvE forum. so unless you're sore that a GWF managed to outdps you in a dungeon, why complain here.
    People are way too negative, Why cant we just all get along.

    40% extra damage, I cannot see how anyone can possibly complain about animation.

    Because the animation doesn't suit it. I said the effect is good and that I like its strength. but I dont have to like its animation do I? imagine if a CW was throwing CoS daggers instead of magic missile. or a clerics divine glow was just the SE animation recycled or a TR's SE used the ice knife animation instead. it wouldn't suit the class aesthetic would it. Same with a Highly armored warrior with a giant sword doing a little backwards hop and throwing a few daggers. It's just a recycled animation ( like many other things from this mod) and doesn't suit the rest of the GWF's kit.

    EDIT : @Zacazu. sure guts has thrown a little blade once or twice, But he does it with style :P(I dont think I've seen it very much though) , he also has an arm cannon, can we get one of those too pls. also berzerker armor transmute because that would actually be amazing.

    the cannon thing is a "anime exaggeration"; daggers are a direct influences of judeau.

    being a martial skills, I dont see aesthetic problem.

    about the amazing anime influences listen in this forum or not ... until a big part of preview, gwf was a very fun class to play (range burst/melee dps... like a dragon ball... hahha). Unfortunately the dev thought the small fix to some new mechanicals of other classes justify the complete and ninja destruction of grand fissure.

    Not to mention 40% damage buff is very high! I have never seen any encounter that high self buff in any other class repertoir!

    .........you are so fun

    limiting to encounter yes, there are no other encounter giving that kind of buff.
    when something like this is present is always limited to the first attack after the encounter usage.

    I'm pretty sure GF's Into the Fray qualifies. 100% of DR as increased damage at rank 4 for you and your allies, ftw. Not to mention the other bonuses it grants...

    Didn't understand if this thread is a complaint about HD buff/damage/range/AoE or if it's just to say it does not fit GWFs.

    Better stick to PvE, with your crying and power stacking GWF.

    That's uncalled for. I wasn't crying, only giving a comparison of a power with a similar effect. Chill, dude.

    which always go in your power bar...so if something without cooldown can have that power why something with cooldown cant have it?

    does not make it less ******ed..just to show how much biased you can

    So much nostalgia from my childhood. You should check out Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold that's just came out. The Original 12 Gold Saints have been revived.

    On topic: I really don't like this encounter's animation. A GWF is a warrior that just rushes forward and engages his enemy. He doesn't play tricks with "Hidden" things... much less Daggers (!) I mean come on... Not only the animation is recycled from Blitz, but the same weapons (Daggers) are. Both of these elements are from TR. I don't think any GWF wants to ressemble a TR at all. They are like day and night.

    At least if the animation was like the Barbarians in Icewind dale where they throw a barrage of Axes in front of them.

    I'm always amazed when people think a videogame should be balanced around tabletop rules and lore. Maybe give cws timestop that freezes everyone for 30 seconds. That totally wouldn't be utterly insane at all.

    I don't really see the problem here. Why can't a fighter fight with daggers? Those are blades too, just smaller. Imo throwing axes or greatswords would be the ridicilous thing...

    I saw. the great Aiolia is the protagonist!

    about the mimimi: a golden rule.

    1 - cws can not complain about other classes. because you guys produce more damage than a primary strikers, even being a secondary striker. thats is not a bad encounter designe . is a HOLE BAD BALANCE DESIGNE.

    2 - cws can not comment about "performance in dungeons" using themselves as references. Why? A primary controller doing more damage than primary strikers+some other craps?

    3 - cws is the class of the "master". it is almost like being the favorite cousin that "weird" friend of childhood that slave your friends because is the owner of the new and expansive videogame of market.

    now, back to the topic:

    ps: d&d my ***. i have magicka if want see a mage protagonist .

    Slight derail, but do realize a 40 pound sword would have to be about 55 feet long.

    Its called Minsc, and we can have only one! W8 for next gorgon, the u can take his place.

    Btw, its always so funny when pply want to racionalize stuff like "gwf cant have great sword, 15 daggers and havy armor and run like bolt" while next on they back tr is passing by totaly invisible, cw is using freaking magic, dc is healing some from near dead to full life force in 3 sec, gf with his small shield is shielding breath of a dragon, ****ing dragon! hr with one skill can make himself immune to a bite of goddess itself, ****ing goddess, sw is using acctual curses and by running around with silly beam melts evrything, and OP, well Op can do bascily both what GF or DC, just by standing close.

    Enought irony to make the point?
