Return of Reckoning

It speeds up a rotation by being a free cast ability rather than an ability that requires you to be within 5ft distance of a target (such as Wot Armor/YMM). This means you can potentially be in your Best Plan stance before you reach an enemy which can be important in times where you want to KD someone immediately rather than having to wait for at least 1.5 GCD time.

Any free cast ability is a valuable thing for SM/BO when you want to be in a specific stance at a certain time. And honestly, the group wide bubble isn't too bad even with the low absorb value.

I see, thanks for the clarification, I see how Rock 'Ard is better for that purpose than Big Slash / Big Swing.

Gain Ability: Deal wit’ it – You show the others how it’s done… either by makin dem do it, or doin’ it yourself. Your defensive target will absorb up to X over Y seconds.

Afaik there's not a single BO that has gone for the 8piece, but on live this was stupid overpowered and then nerfed into oblivion.

Looking for guidance on talismans for 2h spec. I feel like strength talismans aren't yielding the damage throughput i'm looking for. I understand we're not a pure dps, but is strength scaling just wonky?

There's not a lot of choice when it comes to talismans for 2h. It's either STR or WS.
