Hidden Daggers is one more nail in the gwf coffin. A sissy who fears and avoids the fight, runs like there is no tomorrow, and throws daggers from a distance? Devs, this is how you see a Melee Fighter?
Devs, like it or not you have to be able to implement a fighter who fights in Melee, that's what a Melee fghter is named a Melee fighter. Repeat after me devs: Melee fighter.

What coffin are u talking about? Arent GWFs best PvE dps class atm? Its like saying that "Fixing Spell Twisting was one more nail in the cw coffin". Also, melee fighters in most games have some sort of ranged attack and thats just good for them.
Its better than any other dps character self buff power!

And the reason is hidden daggers? Seriously?
What coffin? GWF's couldn't be in a better position at the moment. Cry somewhere else.

Not necessarily, but possibly. I just know about the carnage I saw several GWFs unleash on mobs during my Mod 6 grinding.

Dont think so.
plus.. its a cone aoe, which again, since they nerfed FLS to nothing, been awhile since they had a actual replacement. The other capstone power is useless.. so leave it alone, sheesh people , every class needs some good moves.

lol I know right?
I think GreatWeaponArmy created a revolution among GWFs and created the Man-Warrior syndrome, like TR's have the potato syndrome.

*slow clap* :cool:
The Internet is filled with godawful whiners and crybabies, as is the game. I don't really see why this forum should be different...
I can understand how a "Long Ranged" attack is implemented into GWF class. After leveling the GWF to lvl 70, had a bunch of power points to distribute. Figured I'd try the daggers power ...
The damage from daggers was not that great, however there was a significant boost in DPS when closing in for melee after using the daggers ability. Went into powers list to read in detail and noticed something ... this is a GWF's first long ranged attack.
I do agree with the statment "Melee Fighters should only Melee" .. on the other hand ... this also gives the GWF a means to long range something that can potentially be out of melee range or can't be melee'd (if slotted of course). So IF the reasoning behind implementing a long range attack for a class that doesnt have one to begin with for "versatility/balance" sake, i can understand that as well.
*Side note - GF's have an attack called Terrifying Impact, which i consider to be long ranged. True it's a daily, but still a long ranged attack nonetheless ... which they gave to GWF's as an encounter power called Grand Fissure. Your argument for "melee should be melee" is unwarranted since a melee class did in fact have a long range ability for some time.
In conclusion, after experimenting with this new ability, a part of me couldnt help but think "What's next? ... a CW using Spinning Strike orb bashing mobs."

That means you have not found how to use it. It is not the daggers you throw that is useful. It is about what you are going to do next after the dagger is thrown. That is why Hidden Daggers is for melee and the range is secondary.
I may not optimize it but this is what I do in a nutshell.
In close range, HD. Charge in. At-will/other melee encounter. In about 8 seconds, HD, at-will/other encounter again. Also, HD, daily.
There is a noticeable difference between using HD and not using HD in damage.
So, I'll say it again:

You should really drop everything else and look for those daggers.
It is what it is, a monster combined with a dps pve gwf
