    The very main reason why gwfs are sentinels right now is to survive. Destroyer will only be reconsidered if they return the previous roar and takedown. In pvp destroyer and instagator will not survive considering the amount of power each class can have after the changes.

        • Destroyer's Purpose: Tooltip now matches the effect of the power.
        • Destroyer's Purpose: Now caps at 10 stacks (down from 20) and grants 5% per stack (up from 2%).
        • Destroyer's Purpose: Determination gain from this feat has been increased.
        • Destroyer's Purpose: Now increases the damage of encounter powers by 20% (up from 10%).

      • Resolved an issue with claiming the bag from the Enthusiast Pack.

    If you actually do the math you get only a 85% damage bonus buff from Destroyer's Purpose (50% from Destroyer's Purpose itself and 35% from Focused Destroyer) unlike before where you did 110% bonus damage (40% from Destroyer's Purpose and 70% from Focused Destroyer) so unless the feat Focused Destroyer is also buffed gaining only 10 stacks actually gives less damage overall. Loving the 20% to encounter powers, though!

    Whether perhaps you will be changing the path sentinel, I mean whether a bit you will also improve her
    It would be useful a bit to strengthen sentinela,

    That's wrong. Focus Destroyer operates on Destroyer NOT Destroyers Purpose, so it's unchanged. Your damage damage should be approximately 10% better after this change. I found that I get unstoppable a little faster and do a little more damage. Unfortunately, 50-60% of our damage is at-wills, so this really doesn't do all that much.

    Since we bring NO utility/Buffs/Debuffs to a party as a Destroyer, our only justification in a party is to take & deal damage. And as such a SW is generally a better choice for the party (same lack of utility and a lot more damage). Seriously why would a party take a GWF? What purpose to we serve at equivalent gear levels?

    Play Intimidation Sentinel GWF and make more DPS as 90% SWs/CWs. You loose 10% Single DPS but you make tons of AOE DPS. Boss fights are to short. No need pure single DPS classes in NW.
