Default Tigers Stance Isnt a Warrior Skill

Having Observed hundreds of top 20 GvG's, I have yet to see a warrior use tigers stance. Its time to take this skill out of the hands of Assassins or make it an Assassin skill.

Or, not. It's not used on Warriors because it's bad. Like a LOT of skills. Assassins use it because it's an IAS, with no real downside. Making it an assassin skill would be stupid.

Almost as stupid as a Warrior Strength skill being strictly utilized by assassins.

Nerf it and they'll use Tiger Stance or Flail. The problem is SP spike, not IAS.

And Tiger Stance isn't a bad skill, it's just bad in PvP.

There's nothing inherently wrong with a skill that is more useful on secondaries than primaries. With hundreds of skills, it's no suprise that some of them won't fit into the small number of PvP templates that exist for each primary. Being able to work in secondary class skills and have them actually be effective increases diversity.

The real reason people gripe about Tiger's Stance instead of Return is because they don't like the assassin templates that use it, while they do like the Mo/A tele-kiters. All the talk about how a skill should be limited to its primary class is just so much hand-waving.

Make it an assassin skill & tie it to Crit strike.
Warriors dont use it.

Best Post in this thread IMO.

Some skills are made to be used as 2nd professions not primary. Not that hard to realise it, there's nothing to change, and personally I use tiger's stance for hammer build.
