I really am afraid that GnM will come back as it was and we get the parry stacked dot IB builds back.
Welcome to the fray (again) I was thinking there is something experimental going on, as i actually managed to do dmg through your armor . 100% Will bring my FO BO against you next

I really am afraid that GnM will come back as it was and we get the parry stacked dot IB builds back.

Back in the days a 2H IB could not pick both Oathbound(parry skill) and GnM, most builds looked like this:

RoR.builders - Ironbreaker (replace blood of grimnir with GnM).

Unless they did a +2 mastery version or grabed the axe mastery instead of runic shield/punishing knock. Hence IB's 2H rolled with the Earthshatter(+10 def wep) and would have less parry than the current version with Oathbound and axe mastery. As a reminder, GnM was nerfed shortly prior the removal ( CD starting only after ability ending, effectively doubling the CD from 30s to 60s).

Assuming it would come back, i'm guessing we're talking about the nerfed version, with the already nerfed Heavy strike. But honestly devs should never had messed with some of the original design, GnM was an IB iconic ability and balanced since it wasn't really available to SnB IB's and 2H had to make sacrifices to get it(lowering dps) + it drained your grudges. Overall cool ability replaced with a boring generic buff skill.

I have no idea how it would be implemented in the future, as a nerfed core skill? Could be interesting.

I am so sad they removed GnM from IB as Farrul said it was Iconic to Ironbreakers.

It was decent back then, but now the amount of defenses in game from that time, so it likely will be a way stronger thank it used to be.

Definetly should be tuned down at least
