Currently the only thing that is different is you're not spamming an AoE to apply CS to everyone around you. So, whether or not this trick has 'destroyed' their viability is pretty damn suspect to staff and comes off like flagrant whining. Naturally, we're dismissive about it.
This isnt about stacking with challiange it was NEVER about that and i feel like yall are missing the real point/issue which personally i find rather surprising
It is no small fact that you give up SO MUCH as chosen by going for 2H instead of SnB on top of the standard stuff that moes from shields such as more damage mitigation HTL! etc etc you also lose out on poweful tactics like mixed defenses and DFV
all so that you can go a specific niche utility build that mainly excelled at RvR Applying CS in an AoE with rending blade was what the 2H chosen tree was all about; look at the skills and the tree and you can see the purpose and intent, undefendable attacks and inc crit chance for 2H weapons and many a people i talked to ingame recently all assumed that CS never stacked with challenge in the first place in RoR
Now that you can no longer Apply CS in an AoE with Blast wave or Rending blade the 2H playstyle serves no purpose at all, its a joke, a loldps tree for those whom want style points with a 2H and their no point to running them even in a war band nor a reason to ever run anything besides SnB chosen
Dont make CS stack with challange but let allow us to apply CS with AoE again or compensate the 2H chosen tree so it not a joke

What happens when the most played and favored classes from both WAR live, and here, are nerfed in any way?
Your missing the point, you didnt nerf the real issues with chosen like the power of auras or DFV, the niche 2h chosen playstyle was never an issue
Its like if you guys wanted to nerf the overprevelance of BO as a second tank in 6v6 and stuff so you go and nerf BO's 2H tree....like it really dosnt address the issue and was never a or the problem in the first place
As it stand, 2H chosen is a non viable spec for RvR as if you want AoE dps and also ultility, 2H bg is a much better choice while tri spec/ SnB chosen will more or less continue with buisness as usual as they werent really harmed in anyway bar BW being unable to apply CS but now they are the unquestionable apex spec choice
). There is plenty of stuff that is arguably more broken, such as 100% uptime aoe snares on KotBS and Black Orc, or the lolauras gameplay of Chosen and KotBS.
