15 point ability in their Offensive tree, which means you have to give up Force of Fury, AoE snare, Anger Drives me, Self-heal, and Elite Training to purchase in the go-to Malice spec.

It allows the 2h BG to function as an Offensive tank in both group and WB play (potentially <--) without being blown up. Similar to the 2h Khaine SM!

Can't say i'm happy with these changes (just a measly opinion felt from a fan of the game).....The Black Orc change should at least come with better avoidance tactics, rolling a 2hander is death on a BO unless geared and high rr and carried. The squig changes (though very fun) only gives destro another melee which we don't need, we need more range damage and range cc that stops order moving not just lame disarms and silences. Feels like you are keeping us in melee, especially with the 25% chance at runaway only triggering once every 30 hits or so.
