As we haven’t seen any major concerns regarding the forthcoming warrior adjustment, we plan on implementing what is currently being tested on the Test Server in the version update.

We’ll monitor the adjustment post-level 99 cap increase and look into whether further adjustments are necessary. As always, please let us know if you have any feedback.

We are planning to update the test server extremely soon and we will be releasing the exact schedule in the information section. Below is a planned adjustment for warrior:

  • Cap on the weapon skill damage increase effect from Restraint will be lowered


Since this is an adjustment that will reduce damage output, we will proceed carefully and take our time to do this, more so than other job adjustments.

From What I understand, this is a cap on the total percent increase that restraint gives to WS, and not a cap on the bonus per hit.
Given that, I don't see it affecting good warriors at all.

Naw, it's both. The benefit you'll get from Restraint is halved by this update.

Aww, I was just about to link to your testing, and you appeared to answer while I was digging it up.

Oh well. Testing

Oh bleh. So basically restraint with af3+2 hands is gonna be the same as restraint w/o hands on is now?
Seems similar to the drk nerf on something a little bit ago.

Why would anyone play WAR anyway when you can just play DNC and be much more awesome?
