I mean thats fine, tbh IB and BG both have the same issue and thats a lack of good group utlity. BO/SM/Chosen/KotBS all bring good group buffs and utility which is why people want them so much more.

I think a list of the IB changes thus far would be helpful for this discussion. An additional list of the BG changes for comparison would be even better.

Any forum try-hards here who can compile such a list? I think it would clarify the devs approach to this particular class balance. IB/BG shines in small-scale and I have a hunch that's what they're aiming for.

Of course end-game content is WB heavy, but there are plenty of small-scale fights. Does every class now need a spec tree designed for aoe/WB play? Maybe this would be for the best; I honestly don't know.

Definitely need to have rising anger passive and not a tactic slot imo.

IB is quite good and worth a slot, especially if they're good players and focus on a few MVPs. Improvements could be made to thematic fit for abilities and fun factor, though.

Hm well, Cave-In used to be a 5s KD for example. Maybe 4s at high grudge could be a good compromise, considering Destro has more and better KDs all around. The original argument for nerfing Cave-In decades ago was that it was the longest lasting KD, but that's not true anymore. Maybe the %armor debuff could also be boosted by a small amount depending on performance.

As for fun factor I just want to see Ironbreakers be launched like cannonballs.

Make "Cave Win" great again. :)

Seriously, that seems reasonable.

Make Grudge Born Fury grudge levels increase armor penetration instead of crit chance, by the same amount as of the crit chance increases now.

There are 5-6 other threads from the last 12 months with lots of amazing suggestions, ideas, some fun/lore friendly change suggestions, some pure number cosmetics, some mechanic tweaks. Hopefully one day some of them could be implemented.
