    Beserk Stance says
    -50 Damage Resistance 1 minute
    -3 Health per second
    -1 focus per second
    +25% Fizzle Chance

    Here's the thing, it also stops all Regeneration so its really more like this
    -4 Health per second
    - 360 manna for a minute

    Should change skill to say stops regen.. so everyone knows it sucks.

    My math is off.. but the under lining principal isn't. My fighter days are over without beserk stance.

    Time to settle down, find a girl. Maybe become a fisherman or deco your house.....
    Ok, last time I played meele is 5 or 6 releases ago. So no idea. But I am waiting for the next big archer nerf.
    Half of my build was already nerfd this patch. Will see how it goes.

    This nerfing ruined all fighter designs. Settling down is checking what my account will sell for.

    I see.
    This would be sad.
    I still would recommend everybody to wait and test the final product. The ride will be a rough one though.

    I was being emotional.. never ceases to amaze me how worked up I get about these things. Most changes work pretty good. Targeting has been amazing lately.. and beserk stance could use a tad more negative, but the no regen is too much in my opinion. 3 focus a second with regen would be a good nerf i think

    I'm a crazy person.. serenity is a fleeting dream. Recent test also say that I am wrong. Beserk really should stop focus regen.. it can be amazingly effective. I just have to adapt to the higher focus demands.

    @Chris @DarkStarr

    Is this change intentional? If so, it seems like the behavior inconsistent.

    In order to start regenerating focus while in combat mode, the avatar must not cast glyphs that require focus for about 5 seconds.

    If you are currently regenerating focus and you cast berserker stance, you will CONTINUE to regenerate focus. However if you are not currently regenerating focus and cast berserker stance, then you will NEVER be able to regenerate focus while in bersker stance. This is inconsistent behavior, and seems unintentional.

    Beserk stance says it cost you hp and focus to use.. it never mentions stopping regeneration on top of it.

    I can live with the nerfing to beserk and mind wipe.. two of my majors, but all Sword skills being in slow motion... killed me. I cant even fight weak mobs anymore.

    2 years of playing, I have never seen such harsh nerfing of warriors.

    Every card in my deck was target of nerfing.... and I am the only one I know who uses Beserk Stance Mind wipe and all Sword skills.

    I was really trying to have some fun... and they are really trying hard to make the game as unfun as possible for me.

    90% of everyone is Mage Shield or Archer... no nerf their, just to those handful of fighters out their. Heck , mages can now move and shoot. Big Upgrade for Mages, Big Nerf for the unplayed warriors.

    Its bs.. I dont deserve this kind of harmful attention. I'm not ruling the arena matches, I'm not murdering people left and right. I fought a few pvp matches in which the other side was the aggressor... I don't deserve to be Chrises porta potty.

    It's kinda hard to follow what's your issue is because the nerd rage. Can you take a deep breathe and give us a walk through on what's your set up and how you use it?

    It is easier to read if you could put the thoughts into one thread instead of posting one sentence per post.

    As far as I know, the focus regen is combat mode is supposed to be low. So the -1 focus regen might be a big hit.

    I'm not enjoying the changes to melee at all either. I am struggling with more than one yellow/mid level opponent now. It feels like a skill reset. If they wanted to make some higher level creatures (dragons, daemons, phoenix) more difficult - I can understand that. There should be epic, nearly impossible-to-kill monsters out there.. but they have made everything way, way too powerful. I'm hoping they dial back the difficulty soon.
