In Pursuit - *New Ability* - This ability is placed at 15 points in the Wrath tree. This ability takes off snares, roots, disarms and silencing effects. Additionally it makes you immune from snares and increases your movement speed by 50 for 5 seconds. Cooldown is 5 Minutes.

Divine Fury - Tactic - This tactic now additionally reduces the cooldown of In Pursuit by 270 seconds giving In Pursuit an effective cooldown of 30s.

Avatar of Sigmar - Morale 4 - moved to core, requires lvl 40 to use, when used all morales will have a cooldown of 5 minutes, if you use any other morale then shared cooldown will be 60s as normal.

I like this idea of moving the M4s to core and replacing them with new abilties. The only M4 I took on my classes was Tzeentch's Shielding on the Zealot, all the others just weren't worth the additional mastery points and weren't that much better than some M2s and M3s relative to the additional time needed to get to them. Some are also just bad, like Soul Leak on the Magus or Valaya's Shield on the Rune Priest.

Also, with these new abilities being so high up in the trees, there's some great potential here to add some thematic abilities that really make the spec enjoyable to play and/or add power to an under-performing spec.

Those changes are ridiculous.
Wp and dok only weakness comparing to actual melee classes was their mobility issue. Now, you gave them snare immunity and speed buff on 30s cd, while melee classes have 1 min cd. That makes them effectively best melees in game - they self heal as no other, they do comparable dmg while wearing medium armor and not relying on mechanics as positional attack or rage mode taking half your resists and armor. Now they are twice more mobile than any other melee apart of lions.
Why touch and break something that work fine as it is?
