Heroes already have Panic, Coma, Shout, Brandish and Rush as attacks that can be used at any time. Having two main attacks that are conditional (mob or single-target) would only take up space. Brave Slash could be an advanced version of Brandish or should replace it (after 50 levels of 3rd job). I don't really think it should be an alternate to Brandish.
Agreed.
My gripe again: Why would you further buff a hero's main attack when pali's and especially dark knights have been using the same/same-ish attacks for years. To add insult to injury, they gave a cleric's heal a new animation... prettier heals are cool but it had better not end there -- I do feel like they'll be giving DrK's a new attack (yeah I'm feeling lucky) since they haven't touched crusher yet.
Where is the downside to being a hero these days? You own everything that can possibly be killed solo and if there's a boss such as pb/ht/zak you simply bring a party skill mule along, they have to come anyway otherwise it's just a waste of time. But since party skills are redundant these days, it's always safe to be a pure damage class like a hero. easy as abc.
The 'why'd you make a dk knowing that it's a support job' doesn't fly anymore. I made a DK for the spear. I made a warrior for the hp/attack period. HB has always benefitted other jobs more than they do DrKs thanks to berserk, it's about time that HB stops being the reason for making DrKs less fun to play by strapping on all these restrictions.
