Currently the Worst AA in the game, 10 points can add an awesome 250 Mitigation (it goes down alot when you add more points into it), Currently the character sheet adds 750 Mitigation... this is NOT in line with the current content or game.

Please change it to 1% Damage Reduction or Minus 5-50 (scale) to all damage per point spent.

P.S. It would also be nice if you changed the Damage Per Second Above it to Autoattack Modifier.

Reduces "Physical" Damage by 1% Per Point.

I can agree that the mitigation it grants is very low and needs to be increased or changed to something like damage reduction. But I think the DPS AA in that line is fine the way it is.

Other classes get autoattack modifier, as a "warrior" who is NOT a hybrid in any way, I think we should also get auto-attack modifier, up to 0.12

I agree on both counts if brawlers aren't getting a nerf.

I agree with this change.  But i think dps is fine how it is... although if the auto attack multiplier will give me more damage than i am all for that one.

after you get 100 DPS mod (which is very easy) the DPS gains afterwords are cr@p.

Autoattack Modifier is basicly uncapped DPS mod, its the same thing except its not capped, therefore regardless what your DPS mod it, it will ALWAYS increase your autoattack damage by a certain percent, making it 999x better.

I usually go around with 200 DPS mod, which is 125% Extra Autoattack Damage, adding another 35 with the aa line (which seems like alot), isn't, it only increases it to 128%.

While if it was autoattack modifier, say... all 10 points netting you 0.15 Autoattack Modifier, thats 15% extra autoattack damage, regardless of what your DPS mod is or what equipment you wear, which is in my opinion MUCH better because even you can get 200 DPS as a guardian grouped with a coercer or inquisitor.

well, i guess i am level 39 so the dps mod as is would be much more helpful, but soe doesn't care about me so i guess whichever you need more is what will happen :/

What if you grouped with a coercer or someone that buffs DPS to 100?

good job you can copy and paste!

5 points = 15% increase.15% increase of a 700 physical mit buff=5 points for 110 physical mit for Brigsvs10 points for 250 mit for Warriors.Like I said, Warriors AA isnt the worst ;p
