I have considered the idea of regen being based on AR but I fear it would lead to people wearing whatever gives the best regen and still running around casting. With no precasting and no swinging whilst running (the opposite of OSI-style servers which it seems to me is what you are used to) it's difficult to imagine any (sensible) way to make a warrior viable without a lot of magic use.

I'm happy to hear ideas of course, but remember PvP success should come from skill and skill means input, sadly our weapons here are just autoattack, which takes little or no input, that's where a lot of the problem comes from (and no skill cap is a big issue too).

Sorry if I'm not saying what you want to hear, I feel your pain, I love class-based stuff, but that's never been Sphere style...

For the record the new changes (if they come in) will improve bandages and also weapon swing rates for high dexterity, this will not allow you to be a pure warrior but it may help you feel like you are more of a warrior mage than a mage warrior
