Should Fire just get a total rehaul?

trust me...even with flame cascade...youre screwed,,,because you cast 3-4 powers that dont give power back in your rotation...

Fiery weapon not being apart of the AM is a crime. I know there is a thread or two that details how Fire is structurally inferior to even it's closest relative Ice. I don't feel like looking for it though

I spent a long time today on the test server. I think there's still a lot of rebalancing that needs to be done there, but I totally see what you mean. None of the powers changed. The restoration buff is actually decreased from what it is on live. But when I actually went through content as a Fire tank it did feel like the power has been overhauled. The health buff and self-heals were very effective and I found I spent much less time blocking.

or here is the best idea. FIX THE TALENTLESS HACKS THAT CANT CUT IT. fire well its thing is how easy healers heal it. so as long as you can break out of counters and get back to block you should never die. ever. problem is all these horrible dps and no nothing healers. ok being fair some % of the fire tanks stink. none the less putting a fire tank in new content is like giving a race car a flat. it shows those forming the group have no clue. i always say if you have real dps a fourth is not needed for fast and 5? id be embarrased.

Fire tanking is great. The only issue is that pull. Once a run my backdraft doesn't grab an add in throne. If he gets to the essence that's the only time I fear a drop. Other than that I feel nothing will drop me. If lasso didn't get that stupid grounding effect it would be so easy. Maybe a little less power usage. I notice the bad trolls more as a fire tank. But all in all, fire tanking is the best power atm.

I remember like the third week of AF2, the group I was in, grabbed a second tank because A. That was the first guy that shouted, B. Dps didn't get interupted. That 3 dps run of 26 minutes is still my hoh record, and I have ran it with 5 Dps.

You're posting in the wrong thread. This post actually belongs HERE.

YES. Fire needs love.

Not a complete overhaul, give me back the old Backdraft/Rifle animation and make our health pool a little higher and I'm ok with it.

People insist on having a long range pull, would increasing Backdrafts range be overkill? I wouldn't think so since we don't have a long range pull but I'm sure there is some reason why we can't.

Oh and we have two 60% Damage Moves. Couldn't something be done to make these worthwhile?
