Jeknar.6184 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I like the new Merciless Hammer but I personally don't think that this trait is in position of competing with the other two Strenght Grandmaster traits (Berserker Power and Might Makes Right). I would like to see Merciless Hammer receive the the same treatment as the other weapons traits and have half of it's bonus applied to any weapon. And yes, I know that the Adrenaline gain for CC is already for all weapons but c'mon... If you are running hammer, you obviously isn't running maces unless you going for some hardcore pure CC build.

DanAlcedo.3281 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I seriously wonder how good Merciless Hammer has to be to compete with the other 2 choices. While i truly believe that thematically its in the right traitline, maybe putting it somewhere else could make it more viable. But WHERE is a good question.

Make something like 30 - 35%? I already see the QQ of bronze players getting „oneshot“ by hammer 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discipline, swap it with the quickness trait or axe mastery (axe mastery probably not because of pve dmg, axe mastery and berserkers might in same slot would be bad) kinda fits the disciplin theme. You are disciplined enough to not just braiblessly hit a cced foe, no, you use the cc to precisely hit vital bodyparts. Something around those lines. Would kind of make the quickness trait obsolete, but since nobody rly plays that anyways id be happy to sacrifice it to get hammer into disci. I think it would be a great choice between axe mastery and burst mastery. Id def. Take it there when using hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could have done the same with Berserker Power, which make the trait kinda redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cd decrease is nice and all but if you can’t hit your opponent with your cc skills (which is the win condition) the first time, do you really survive long enough to try your combo again? Is a simple Dmg multiplier or extra healing and endurance better then all of the above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacing Heighened Focus instead of Axe Mastery is most likely the best option if Merciless Hammer is to become a relevant choice without hurting warrior further on PvE.
