#2832, "Out of curiosity..."


          

How come of the six classes that receive the trip skill... warriors get it last? I'm not really complaining, but there is very little for a warrior to do during combat pre-10, (unless of course you practiced kick, in which case... why???) and I wouldn't mind having trip in there just for the extra practice and what not... not to mention taking some of the burden off of guildmasters when dealing with 15th ranked warriors.

Just a thought. Laearrist

One thought off the top of my head:

If warriors get trip earlier, they need to get a whole lot of their other automatic skills (e.g. enhanced damage, parry, dodge, shield block, second attack, third attack, dual wield) later.

Consider a warrior with trip at 11th/12th/13th or so in PK vs. most other characters at 11. It's not pretty.
