Return of Reckoning

Listen i'm not arguing in general, i know about ''def'' meta and i am also an experienced 1vs1 player for the vast playtime on this server. I have also ''def'' and other BIS classes after playing for many years(Yes i know how to min/max and make the strongest characters in this game :) ).

However ...

Oh wow, yeah the cool down starting after the duration is a giant nerf. Apparently it was still too strong and had to be removed.

Yeah right.

Playing IB lately feels more complicated than ever with the added cool down to Oathbound.

I would also like to see the, Furious Reprisal, tactic tied to ...

5 pages debate over a small little buff (which is well deserved). Christ just give BG a dps buff to the channel since it was clearly overnerfed and hits like a wet noodle now.

It's just like the KOTBS discussion, people were arguing that a KOTBS dps buff would be a huge thin, then devs buffed ...

Kotbs have huge stat booster sourses, runefang, m2, aura, wich allow him go ws. If you go WS on bg now u will end like at zero str. Option - "just buff channel" will not help, class need a lot of attention and smart solutions for his specs, especially 2h.
Yes but BG provides his own 1200(?) armor ...

BO will hit you like a truck under ''You Wot'' and with ...

It does well, but a def WL in the +armour sov destroys a def WE easily.
The ''def WL''' i've seen in the game duel a Def WE has easily been deafeated by the WE, however that was before patches and ive not played in some time.

However to me personally the def sov set is inferior to the normal one ...

As far as losing the self heal I'm not sure why this is always an argument when IB chatting comes up. The game is not balanced around solo play, 1v1, etc
Grumble'mutter should never had been replaced in the first place, that's the first and only mistake. It was an iconic IB ability used and ...
