wadecounty Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Just checked ingame, comparing tooltip damage on several abilities with tank stance active and then no stance, they are lowering damage on all abilities by 20% instead of the intended (or at least listed) 10%.

KarathAnno Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Yes please fix this asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadecounty Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Bumping this so more can see it, and will continue to do so until this gets some sort of reply. If this were about DPS, people would be freaking out, but tank damage is still very important to game balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lafay Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 ^ yes, the reson you dont see any communication about this is because it is so hard to hit the reply button... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TapVallian Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I posted about this in General last night as I didn't see anyone talking about it. Someone linked in thus thread and another. It seems pretty significant. But... prior to xpac, it said 5% but was actually 10-11%. So I figured maybe I was missing something. At any rate, we should at least have an explanation on why it appears to be 20% when it's stated to be 10%. Where is that Eric guy I saw replying to posts last week?

Xanadorus Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 can't be so difficult to fix. If this would be the case in any dps class hell would break out, but we're only tanks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icebergy Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 ^ yes, the reson you dont see any communication about this is because it is so hard to hit the reply button...

Glower Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Still -20.33% for me. GG Bioware! (btw why 0.33? Is it too hard to use 10/.00/20.00% in the code?) Edited December 9, 2014 by Glower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levram Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I just checked after the 3.0.0b Patch and the damage reduction for being in tank stance is still 20% and not 10% as stated in the tooltip and by the Developers in their LiveStreams. Depredating Volts (no saber charge) = 7,188 energy damage Depredating Volts (Dark Charge) = 5,701 energy damage (20.7% reduction) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongHornTx Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Bump. Same on my guardian tank, depending on the abilities, I get ~20% dmg reduction instead of the 10% of the tooltip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaitWatson Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Hey folks, I currently don't have any update on this, but I'll let you know when I do! -Tait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sindariel Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) I get the feeling the combat team will answer something like: "Following internal testing, the team decided to not implement the change as they were happy with where it was when using high end level 60 gear. With that being said, we are happy with DPS numbers as they are right now and therefore have no plans currently to adjust tank stances. As always we will continue to monitor DPS and will make changes as needed.". Edited December 12, 2014 by Sindariel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drudenfusz Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Hey folks, I currently don't have any update on this, but I'll let you know when I do! -Tait I hope it will happen before PvP season 4 starts, since otherwise that would be quite a disadvantage for PvP tanks.
