It doesn't do squat against the mobs you'll be training on for at least half of your 4th job. If I had to categorize priority, Brave Slash wouldn't be near the top. I'd be ACA, Adv. Final Attack, Enrage, Power Stance (or vise versa), and then maybe Brave Slash but even that's generous since I'd probably do Combat Mastery before it. The point is, at its current place, Brave Slash is nothing more than a buffed version of Brandish (as usual) that only acts as filler for when Panic or Coma are too weak or you don't have enough orbs to use it. I hardly call this compensation.
What's wrong with being a Hero and tanking damage? It's not like any of you have gone through the experience of always risking getting your butt kicked everywhere. In mobby training, any warrior would already have Rush so what's the point of range?
The new Panic is semi-spammable, doing 670% dmg to 6 mobs (as opposed to IS' 675% dmg on 3, which is inferior before factoring speed disadvantage), obviously bringing Hero's mob capabilities to a never-before-seen-by-the-class level (used in conjunction with Brave Slash of course).
Chance attack works with Threaten, so that counts bosses, for LHC mobs, if at all possible, you can inflict darkness with Panic itself.
You have the worst 3 target damage, yes, but you also gain 6 target damage that the class never knew before. On single target, you're still fucking pomegranate out of everything. What's not to like? Do you have to excel at bossing AND mob training to be happy?
