Ok SOE what ya do to our DPS this patch?

[Thail]

Tonight I had my usual group of Inqs and Illusionist. With 89-145 haste and 72 dps buffs I broke 1k dps once. This is w/ a Brigand in the raid.  I usually run 1k to 1.3k in this type of grp. Hell last fight of the night I used BOTH Miracles Battle's God Fury and Battlerage (knockout Combo begining and end of the fight) and still didn't beat 1k . Anyone else (raiding Bruisers) notice a dps nerf?

I think our auto attack dps was lowered, because with a dirge and coercer in my group for dps i can usually auto attack for 400 - 550 each attack, using bone tooth scewer and scepter of destruction. Now it seems I cannot auto attack more than 350 with that set up. Yeah, our dps was definately nerfed. /sigh Why do I always pick these f*cked classes when I play a mmorpg. There is never a medium with the Brawler class. It's Always give and take..

Thank you I was checking this post every 10 mins to see if I was going nuts. Bravo SOE nerf us again.

I haven't checked with barefists yet, but I haven't noticed any direct nerf to DPS. I know I'm not a raid level Brawler, but there weren't even any bullet points to a brawler DPS nerf in the patch notes. If anything the DPS nerf hit us because they upped our defensive capabilities, probably putting us on Par with the other tank classes in a rickety attempt to equal us all out.

<p>Barefisted, full legendary I whomp over 400/hit easy auto attack.  (although barefisted CA that lowers crushing mit by 500+ helps)</p><p>you guys need to take the gloves off! /flex</p>

Yep.. I'm noticing a drop in DPS as well. Eff tanking.. give me back my damage!

well, an unrest run for me is an average of 1100, and it enabled me to hit a 1700 more often than i did before, thats usually with a inquisitor and occasionally a dirge. I'm not sure whats happening to you fellas. I know most of you aren't noobs as we are all regualrs here but could it be that some other classes have seen more increases in theirs instead of decreases in ours? I run with a swashy, brigand or assassin and sometimes with all of them at once so competing with dps like that you can't really expect to hit as you would normally.
