[dubbs]

<DIV>From the test update notes:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>- Brigand and Swashbuckler defensive stances now have increased mitigation percentage from 15% to 18%.<BR>- Monk and Bruiser defensive stances now have a minimum deflection percentage of 7.5%.<BR>- Monk and Bruiser defensive stances now have increased mitigation percentage from 15% to 20%<BR></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Why do warriors and crusaders still only give a straight 15% increase?  And why does a Master 1 version of the defensive stance still only buff my mitigation the same amount as the app1 version?  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Please make the quality of the spell scale upward to a maximum of 20% at Master 1 version for all classes.</DIV>

Also, read the Brawler boards and find out that, when EoF launched, plate tanks got a higher uncontested avoidance percentage and still do after this change.<div></div>

Thanks for the info.  I guess my main point was that wishing the stances versions would scale with quality.

<DIV>Seconded, i would like a scale from say 10% for App 1 - 18% for master 1, just gives a bit more oomph behind the defensive stances.</DIV> <DIV>As of the current changes, i spent 90% of my time in Offensive stance since my defensive just doesnt really cut it anymore, the only time i pop my M1 Defensive is against my resist type caster mobs (disease since im a sk)</DIV>
