What did they nerf on signet of rage o.O?

It was nerfed last year, from 30s to 25s as well as might nerf. I think using signet of rage now is just bad idea.

online.1278:

Since signet of rage has hardly nerfed, we have no choice but to only use rampage or battle standard. if we go for them, warrior’s sprint is must in need unless we run warhorn. Therefore no rifle user can actually use crack shot ability but choose warrior’s sprint. if we use crack shot, we lose all mobility.

So I think Crack shot need to be in master trait of discipline. As it goes to master trait, buff something is in need like killshot cast time decrease from 1+1/4s to 1s.

Or, buff signet of rage back. Especially double swiftness duration.

Anyway, i guess this is why Rifle isnt still viable in sPvP.

Putting crack shot on master doesn’t sound bad. The battle standard regen definitely needs to be moved downward for sure :x

it should be buffed crack shot, not just crack shot, in master trait, just like greatsword trait got hugely buffed. Exchange its position with banner trait is nice idea becuz that banner trait now doesn’t decrease cooldown time as well like before, which sounds like it is not that good trait to be in master tier. and I think guy who uses banner doesnt move a lot from a point, and also banner grants swiftness and running skill while holding it, I think banner guy wouldn’t need Warrior’s sprint that much. so I agree with you that it is better to switch them, banner trait and crack shot.

Whilst I would agree with moving the trait, this still unfortunately wouldn’t make Rifle viable in PvP.

The issues with Rifle are quite deep that would require alot more rework than noted. Which is something I dislike since I love playing rifle quite a bit, but its a death warrant in PvP.

The most likely reason Rifle isn’t viable in sPvP is that it isn’t viable in any game mode.

Even just running around the open world shooting at random mobs with a glass cannon build, Warrior Rifle is quite possibly the most depressing weapon in the game.

Please don’t make crack shot compete with Brawler’s recovery

Other classes can out put full adnrealine killshot damage with the same amount of button clicked, faster, more reliable, no adrenaline needed and low cooldown as well.
