People have been complaining about dex builds being too good. I say the game is better now than it was when wield axe;bash was the best answer to everything. The dex specs require more interesting gear choices, more nuanced strategy and more intricate tactics.

Bash bash bash or trip trip trip is the most boring conceivable way to have a fight end, win OR lose. I'd much rather win a fight where I responded to my opponent's tactics and beat them with skill than by just watching my superior melee beat them down. I'd much rather lose a fight to a dex-warrior where I at least got to try some things than to a damage-spec that did nothing but command denial.

I applaud all of the pro-finesse changes.
