BRING ME BACK MY NIGHTBLADE BUFFS!

Pretty please? Look, what made Nightblades stand out was their ability to work independently in raid settings and PvP alike, but now, they're becoming another watered-down string of noodle.

On one hand, yes, removing minor berserk encourages people to stand in the stacks during raids, but what about solo tasks? For example kiting the blade arm of the Assembly General in vHoF, dealing damage in vAS, and kiting spears in vSO? My beloved Nightblade was always (usually) welcome in raids, welcome to do the dirty work, but now.... alas.

The minor buff gives an inherent 8% damage increase, which reduces Nightblades' damage potential by the same amount. If you pull 50k DPS, that is... let me math...46k DPS! 4k DPS less, during parsing. Which, yeah yeah, parsing is not everything and all that. But still, the buff was a FUNDAMENTAL part of Nightblades' performance, which is now about to be BURIED.

    Shame there is not a LOL reply on this forum.

    At least you can see it here

    :D:D:D:D

    NBs outperformed, everyone else. And while everyone else had to rely on buffs or Pots, NBs as you point out were able to go without. Now simply use pots like everyone else :)

    Several things wrong with this.

    1; No potion gives Minor Berserk.
    2; All classes except MagDK and Magdens were roughly equal in terms of DPS.
    3; Other classes have passives to compensate for the lack of buffs.
