<p>So far i havent seen or heard of any 4 second delay weapons for fighters from the raidzones.</p><p>Would be nice if you could put in a couple for us that prefer it over 6 second delays.</p><p>Thanks for reading.</p><p>Chimeron</p><p>Splitpaw</p>

<p>I think they've settled on 6 Seconds because of Crusader classes being balanced around the idea of spells and CAs (dating back to when spells took longer to cast, who remembers 2 second cast time Dreadful Wraths?).  Making all fighters use 6 seconds is just the "easy" way to avoid a fiasco like the Swash / Brigand pouch thing that's been an issue the last 3 expansions (at least).</p><p>In SF the complete lack of 6 second weapons (Relative to 4 second weapons) was a major PITA.  I didn't replace my broken mythical until we were taking down the 3 Sages.  Where near everyone else replaced theirs much sooner than that.  (and I'm only aware of 1 6 second weapon above that in SF, the axe off Vaaclaz, and that didn't exist for half the expansion!)</p><p>And it's not just raid, there's no 4 second fighter weapons in heroic or raid content this expansion.</p>

<p>As a Guardian I absolutly prefer 6.0 second weapons. I'm usually capped on haste so the 6.0 weapon is ~2.5 second actual delay.</p>

<p>Im a Guardian myself.</p><p> An extra adorn slot on shortsword of the ykesha and i would be in heaven. Not even remotely tempted to go back to a 6 sec weapon, less dps with a 4 sec yes i can live with that.</p><p>2.5 sec is way too long for me. 1.8sec Fits like a glove.</p><p>Anyways, hope a dev reads my post <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>Or the easier way:</p><p>Each weapon comes in a nice easy "unpackable" object containing:</p><p>- 4.0s Brawler Main- 4.0s Brawler Secondary- 4.0s Main- 4.0s Secondary- 6.0s Main - 6.0s Secondary</p><p>You could do the same with Ranged as well:</p><p>- Pounch- Bow</p><p>Voila Problem solved!... a very boring way to do it I know...</p>

<p>My DPS went up with 6 second weapons which helped me keep agro which is really the only reason I use them. I could care less what they are, I just want to keep agro.</p>

<p>Never ever had any aggro problems, fully def and all for many many expacs as a Maintank.</p><p> All im trying to get through here is that even though a 6sec will give you more dps.. for me i get way better flow on things with a 4 sec.</p><p> Hence me asking for this tiny favor adding a couple ok 4sec raid obtained weapons for fighters.</p>
