i like the curse you all one...sounds bloody hilarious

Wow the grudge system really does sound like it'll turn the IB into a complete nightmare.

I like the execute type move too, sounds good, hope the Hammerer gets something similar.

ooooh i like the grip of stone

[Guivert]

I'll preface this by saying sorry ... I really didn't get the details down on some of this like I should have.

But ... I just got back from Chicago Games Day, and I got to play an Ironbreaker in an RvR scenario. Things weren't going great with their computers, and I did crash a couple times during the thing (some bug they were having with that particular scenario), but I got a decent amount of time in swingin' an ax as a good ol' IB.

Here's a couple other moves of theirs that haven't been mentioned [none of this is official text. This is all from memory.].

Oath Friend: Friendly target (probably group member only) becomes your Oath Friend, and any time they take damage, you gain extra Grudge.

Stone Stance: Your chances to block, dodge, and parry are increased.

? Stance: All friendlies (not sure if this only works on group members, or if all friendlies in an instance would count) gain Moral faster.

Ax Toss: You throw an ax at the enemy, and cause a little damage. This can be done on the run!

Beyond those, I had access to the regular attack, the short rooting attack, a brief shield stun, a longer shield stun from Moral, and Grudgeborn Fury. There was also Taunt, Guard, and Sprint on the bar, and another attack which I only got enough Grudge for once, so I really don't remember which it was or what exactly it did.

We were running about as either high tier 1s, or young tier 2s ... again, not exactly sure, because there was a lot of detail to take in there.

I was overall very pleased with the IB. I was running the Stance to increase party Moral most of the time, but when I switched out to Stone Stance I was tough as nails (of course, I also had my buddy playing a Rune Priest keeping me buffed and healed). Tanks take a whole lot to take down. The toughest opponent on the Destruction side was the Black Orc for sure, but I'm pretty sure he was beduffing our damage. I also stood bravely for a good long time vs three orcs and someone (I think it was the squig herder) shooting at me. The stuns for your shield help out, but the IB has the armor and hp to stand up to a lot of punishment.

Me likie Stone Stance 0.o Reminds me of my old hobbit tanking days in LOTR that was so much fun! Thanks for the info!

I just now saw the new post about the IB (the Chicago impressions). It seems a lot has changed about the IB. I also just saw a post on the IGN forums where someone told us that they now also have positional attacks. I can't say I am happy about that. I don't really like a tank that relies heavily on positional attacks.

http://vnboards.ign.com/warhammer_online_age_of_reckoning_general_board/b22997/104289297/p1/?7

There were about 8 abilities: a basic attack, a knockdown, a follow up to said knockdown, a throw weapon (which has a weapon graphic when you throw it, hehehehe), a rear positional, a rear/side positional, sprint, and I can't remember what the last one was.

It can be rather hard to pull off positional attacks when your latency is slightly worse than others. It does sound like that most if not all abilities listed in the OP, are probably no longer in the game, unless they have added more abilities. Other than the Knockdown, basic attack and sprint, everything seems different (although some other abilities may still be in.) I do hope that they still have the Taunt ability at least. I do like Oath Friend and Stone stance.

[Nastu]

Well don't forget that they've been selecting what moves you get. They've also been chosing your moral abilities so... some of these could be options to pick up.

I just want in beta to see for myself =p

Anyhow, as he said, they only had 8 abilities. I'd guess several of those listed are in, just that he didn't have them.

Not to call this person a noobwad or anything, but it very much sounds like she is describing the HAMMERER and not the IRONBREAKER. If they post that video I would not be suprised at all seeing how most of the hammerer's attacks rely on position/cause knockdown/cause more damage to knocked down enemies.

I read that and thought the same thing too. I expect IB's to have some positional stuff, but certainly not be dependent upon it. Will probably be a limited selection of positional attacks.

I keep reading through this post every so often, I just can't get away from it. This is going to be a very fun class to play.
