WH/WE Aoe rebalance

[Marawo]

Issue:

WH/WE are the only dps classes with no access to reliable aoe pressure, they only have access to one spammaple 3cap ability and one 10s CD 9cap ability. Trying to be useful in a wb is reduced to being a mere distraction in the enemy backline and your M2.
This results in WH/WE being unwelcomed and considered useless even in casual open WB's.

Solutions:

All of my solutions revolve arround revamping the tactics "Broad Severing" and "Sweeping Razor"

1) Tactic increases target cap to 9 but reduces damage by 20% (boring 1 button mash, not very appealing)

2) Tactic increases slice/razor strike to 3 target cap AND converts Ruthless Assault/Trial by Pain to a 20ft arround the target 9cap channel. 10% damage reduction on affected abilities included of course.

3) Mix of both solutions above 9cap slice/razor strike, 9cap RA/TBP bound to the tactic. 20% damage reduction on the affected abilities.

Personally I like solution #2 the most since it gives an incentive to NOT spam slice/razor strike

Why is this a good change?:

-This change doesn't touch smallscale ST specs at all.
-Aoe abilities also means breaking your aoe detaunt and adds a new layer of when and where to use detaunt.
-It opens up WH/WE slot in non meta aoe WB, these classes also provide utility (bullets/kisses).
-It migitates the "dead weight" factor for those 2 classes in breaking the funnel in forts/keeps where there is simply nothing to "gank" or sneak up on.
-It requires a tactic to use and WE/WH have alot of good tactics making for a hard decisions on what to cut for the aoe access.


Possible concerns:

-Frenzied mayhem resulting in slice spam is already resolved (just pointing it out if it ever gets changed back).
-Damage values for the aoe attacks are overperforming/underperforming, in that case reducing/increasing damage reduction on the tactic is an easy fix.
-"Waaah multiple WE/WH banded together and wiped my backline", multiple people working together to achieve a goal is hardly a concern.



As always, constructive criticism and pointing out aspects these changes could affect is welcome.

This would be great format for a balance forum post, however we're not turning WE/WH into AOE tools. They have very specific and very effective functions already.
