Can I just say that Gods of War costs mana to sing and that focus is free.

I still think the Cocaine/Lox style of thief is the strongest. Good blasting, counterattack, dmg reduc, and you still get your aegis and rabbit. Bard for thieves is the suxor now. You can't rely on cry for blasting and the songs don't do that much considering the mana cost involved.

Has anyone tested the exact amount of additional damage from stab to
stab+focus?

I know ppl have said gods of war = +4dam to stab which does help and
if you keep singing it adds +7dam to each attack.

frenzy and berserk now add damage to backstab, deathgrip, deathtouch, wraithtouch, strike and circlestab - frenzy at ~50% of what its regular damage bonus is, and berserk roughly twice that (berserk still has 2ac penalty though).. worth keeping in mind for Thief primes when considering classo. Also increased hp for tert or quad Warrior (particularly quad). Duration of frenzy increased at higher levels too.

I know thiefs with warriors can use frenzy/bersek. But I never really notice
that much of a stab. When my thief bersek there are times i can't splork
a mob that I could have splork without bersek.

Well yeah, up to now, frenzy/berserk shouldn't have had an effect on stab. :)

Hope berserk doesn't override added stabdam or something..

Naw my thief runs at like -10 +23dam +15stab. I don't have stab max,
but I guess I could use my 7 exp tokens on something ... (God I wish u can
trans exp tokens to other chars!!!)

I haven't ran gold with him for awhile, so unless frenzy/bersek was changed
a few weeks ago.

addon: apparently frenzy / berserk don't add as much damage as focus, but they will stack, so that's nice.

Well i guess frenzy/bersek "could" be better in the sense of focus time.
You can just type "frenzy/bersek" and can go stabbing. Without Ki, reg
focus does take awhile to charge up.

I do like the class order of th/ma/cl/mo. Since it does do a great amount
of damage from focus, stab, & blast. But if u can two man all the time n
just to have the most damage th/ma/ba/mo. Would need a cleric type with
that class order of course :)

well juggle with a complete lack of any other real options i gotta spend it on something. no point in having a few vaults filled with tokens!!

with the new warrior changes it's time for someone to step forward and make that th/mo/ba/wa!!! someone step up and give it a go!

I'm perfectly happy with th/ma/cl/mo. You will whiff, it's inevitable, and frostbolt makes shit go away when you do. Cleric...well..the worst prime class yet the most necessary supporting class. Monk for all the monk gravy, mostly focus.
The perfect blend of poetry and meanness..
