when the ability was 10s long i thought the devs had taken the first step to buffing the ability and improving the plastyle as a whole, sad to see this is not the case

I haven't been here in a while but the answer to this is very simple.
Change Blade of Ruin into almost anything else. As it stands its a completely worthless ability (god knows I tried to make it work), so yea. It doesn't have to be a KD, or even a CC, just something that warrants speccing it and you know using a GCD for it. The options are endless really. Heck you could make it just a high direct damage ability (instead of a **** dot) and it would be good.

Ya but you forfeit probably the hardest hitting ability and a unique effect that is only on the BG unless you count the mara single target one.
Also using glaive on BG makes me feel kimochi and doki doki inside, shield and sword is like some depressing hell.

I did think about leaving it, but then I thought back to the Marauder axe throw mutation adjustment. The rain of tears from certain members of the community over me making that change without consulting the community is the reason I will fix the bug with CD, even if I don't believe in doing so. There is a price to every action
