The hope is that they put enuff controls in to limit these scenarios instead of backpeddling and nerfing skills later on. If the combo you suggest works i actually see no problem with it atm. its on a 10min timer and does decent dps but only if u get hit. Now to see what actually happens in game is another story.
btw rahge about the parser debate we were having i am not against guards having better dps i actually think guards need better dps. In fact i like the new skills that are coming in the form of AA's that counter for extra atks etc. And i think if they tweak it enuff it should be a maintained conc buff. But i also think a guard needs an increased offensive stance for raid/group stackability and for added solo effciency. Not to mention the fact i think the guard offensive stance is effectivly broken from an offensive vs defensive perspective. They should even tweak protections skills to do less overall damage 90-99%. Overall i think the devs are finally forming an idea on what to do with most classes/raids/items. It has taken a while but it does seem to be looking better. I still feel bad for enchanters though everything they should have gotten it seems has gone to other classes. Spell haste, spell slow, stuns/stifles (that work on epics), power drain that works if any class needs help badly its them. but to reiterate since i tend to trial off
1)increase gaurd offensive stance
2)make the counterstrike AA passive/maintained
3)take another pass on the usefulness of protection skills in group
4) reevalute [Removed for Content] you want from enchanters in raids
wow for a sec I thoguht that was gaige posting and I coudnt belive how positvie he was.. anyway... while he offensive stuff may be broken... and they do have that str AA any serious raid guard will not bother with any of those AA's cept for the hate increase if they decide to go that route which will ruin their defensive AA's also the proteciton lines are just dumb and need to be thrown out.. only useful one is the group dmg soak proc.. which I suppose would be good enoguh except when those [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] aoes go off on raids and kill me
