report 692 comment I feel like any comment stating that changes are not necessary should almost always be supported by valid reasons aside from 'I feel it is'. A key difference between deathweapon and this idea is that deathweapon (judging from the AB, might need clarification) will reliably increase the deathmark -and- has a small chance of adding a contagion affliction. All this idea does is add more insanity, which is why I feel that its proc rate should be higher than the 15% proposed here, given that the equivalent affliction (that leads to the instakill) for insanity is deathmark, and not contagion. I do not personally object to adding a stat reduction, however I don't think that's necessary because insanity's effects is much less debilitating than deathmark's, which is cured by repeated cleanse (3+s balance without soap) and allows for an improved diag and better contagion/crucify/torture. It is debatable whether Templars have better passive afflictions, considering all they really have is greywhispers (3p) and visionflux (which can't be used against mana classes/TP's, and is pretty amusingly rough while surged), while necros have coldaura/contagion, aeonics has oracles/echos, etc. Most tertiaries have helpful passives so I can't really accept that Paradigmatics is heads above the rest. By the way, it's not a passive build up if the warrior still has to strike to make the afflictions. Incidentally, I don't mind if Aeonics gets a similar effect, so they are free to envoy one, but I'd like to point out that they're already asking for a different effect for their warriors in report 586.
