If the enemy team is worse from the get go, only then you don't need to drop rage. Against bad enemy teams you don't need the added damage either. ;)
I tried wild choppin with Wot rules and chop fasta but it felt underwhelming as it seems to have an odd delay after use.
i don't agree. with good tank/heal you can be berserk all the time. wot Rules sacrifices spike (yellow exahustion) in favor of sustained damage. Wot Rules coupled with a high ST damge class let you outdamage most setup, at least in sc/small scale. Obviously Wot Rules is not worth in some environment/situation but there is no tactic that is always good. Also Wot Rules is the only way to make Keep On Choppin' somwhat worthy: Berserk->Flee->AP pot->Yellow-> Reckless Blow+Keep On Choppin' spam->Berserk-> repeat.

While 24 hits is overkill, it ensures that everyone you want to hit gets in fact hit. I plan on killing without having to require a double dmg tick on gtdc, so I don't care about the fix.
That's true but i can grant you that a wise use of Wot Rules, Chop Fasta, GTDC+interrupt, Wild Choppin'/Wot's Da Rush and Bring It On could have generated the same amount of damage without sacrificing one tactic slot (even without spamming Wild Choppin'). Sadly after the nerf you can't anymore

So those strong skills are indeed countered by having a choppa or BO in group.
i get your point

Disagree

Even with pocket guard and heals you are just far too fragile with wot rules, if rr100 def gear existed in the game then yeah wot rules could be somewhat viable

My main character is Choppa 80+. Choppa is very strong in this state. When I read the posts of crying players, I have the impression that we are playing with two different classes.
If GTDC were to change, I would go more in this direction: Reduce GTDC dmg by 30% or 50% but in return make a special immun 30 sec immun but only against GTDC pull. So the target could not be pulled twice in 30 sec. But it wouldn't ruin the tank's work.

Why reducing dmg ? It already deals almost nothing.

To compensate for removing immun on roots / punts (immovable). So that GTDC gives a separate immun not immovable. Then each pulled person would have 30 sec "GTDC immun" but the target would have no immun on roots / punts.
That my opinion.

Maybe if we got a proper 2h spec so we could actually do dmg if we wanted to. Maybe.

Like, currently Choppa needs many things but a reduction in dmg of the one mandatory ability for all Choppas?

Hecc no.
