For me, BO (I have 40+ now and only ruin/conq gear) is great.
1 Finally a good ST punt. I know some cry that you have to sacrifice tactics but that's what every tank has except BG/IB.
ST punt is after guard the best tanks skill so it's no sacrifice.
2 Party speed buff + immuns. No one has anything similar in the game. ST sove bonus is much worse with 2 min cd

3 Great and underrated RiDJ. Upward toss with interrupetm not giving immuns.
4 Party absorb.
5 25% AA dmg for party
6 WS buff
7 Stealing stats
8 Armor debuff
And many others
and after the last patch great change BO stance to skills like punt/kd
And a Definitely Improved Parry Tact.
I absolutely do not share the cry an about BO
