I think the ability performs its intended purpose perfectly as is. It's supposed to be mostly garbage damage except for the occasional instance where someone who is about to die is running away from you.

Besides that it allows melee to stay in combat or keeps someone from mounting.

Making it more useful than it already is seems unneccessary and more than a little goofy. Doesnt really matter to me though and I think it would be pretty amusing seeing tanks using their little throwing axes instead of HTL. Mostly because it would be an absurd sight.

I fixed your comment. Your order bias is showing.
Karnak (Ironbreaker), Hadebrandt (KotBS), Quigon (Swordmaster), Rakthraka (Black Orc), Thulza (Chosen), Braerithryn (Blackguard)

Everyone is biased to destro or order and anyone who claims not to be is lying to someone. It’s just natural to like one side more than the other.

I dont think that's true. Well actually I KNOW thats not true, but I cant speak for the majority so I dont know to what extent it's not true.

It's pretty easy to spot people who arent objective.

You are right, it did need fixing. I did it. TY. And yes, I am right. The Squig Herder is now an mdps class with tank armor, unlimited pounce and escape, and aoe kd ....

and some destro thinks "" I "" am biased? Please!!!! Most OP classes are all destro. Has been from launch of live. But destro players are never happy. Only way to make destro players happy is for them to never die. White Lions ... destroyed by nerf and Squig Herder made into an endless pounce machine. Shadow Warriors, destroyed by moving a simple ability that is needed so high on the skirmish tree that no one playing SW can get a viable mix of trees anymore.... basically destroying the class. Squig Herder given mdps damage and tank heavy armor. Pffftttt .... no worries, give destro tanks MORE cc by adding snare to their axe toss. And let's see what other crack pot idea some crying destro will come up with.

And still destro cry ....

The amount of utter nonsense in this is staggering: melee SH does not have an AoE KD, his ST damage is not as good as other MDPS (this includes melee SW!!), endless pounce also exists on Loner WL, Order tanks have more potent/accessible CC than their Destro counterparts (KOBS permasnare anyone?), melee SW can also achieve incredibly high armor values - the list goes on.

Please stop with the incessant, baseless accusations of one realm being vastly superior to the other; take off the rose-tinted, realm-biased glasses for once, and you'll see that both realms have access to their own unique goodies.
