The cool down reducer mechanic is still much easier for BO than it is for SM and it is at 11 rather than 13 in the tree, meaning you can also still go middle tree for 13, which is pretty nice. I'd still want the cool down reducer in every party. Order couldn't get enough SM before for a WW that granted immunities that didn't make sense. Tell me how the BOs tactic still isn't better than WW.

It looks to me if BO has a bunch of punt options with mor' hardcore too.

Every class in this game could be tweaked a bit. The recent changes seem reasonable, but I understand why people don't like nerfs, even when they are over performing.
WAHHHGGG no longer reduces cool down.....................................................................................................................................................

Did you read the patch notes? The CDR got removed from blork.

You are overreacting a bit and BO still offer morale pump+m3, Da Greenest, Rock Ard both BG and chosen does not.
BG dominates the 1 or 2 ST tank slots.. always has.. BG and BO are on even footing basically for the last 2 slots.. Its not good.. BG have a niche only they fill.. BO no longer does....

So they deserve only 1 spot, what is stopping a BO to roll 2h build and fill that ST group tank role in a warband? Nothing

Blork is weak in the 2H role of ST party.. Dont you know anything about City composition??? Chosen and 2H BG are the ST tanks.. The only way Blork gets a spot in Meta city WBs is if there is a lack of chosen..

I amend my previous post. I thought it was unchanged. I can see the concerns. It looks like an over correction but let’s see. Losing the morale boost may have been enough to balance the class. Not sure the WS toughness boost will work, but it could help the melee train if it stacks.
primary IB 8X, EN8X, WP7X, SL7X, KOTBS6X, and a bunch of under rr60 toons on order and destro with other classes.

I only strapped on a shield while doing cities/forts anyway and had no intention to continue doing cities with off sov and wl done. The ability to get into city wbs certainly changed but still all wbs need tanks and only a few wbs are super fussy about exact composition (tbh this change is worse for shamans/msh which relied on cd decreaser). Roaming the lakes in a small group as 2h hasn't changed. Still fun to be had.
If roaming is they only thing u wanna do it's fine, but last week we also had skull thumper nerfed. me bo feelz saad!
Don't get me wrong, the BO for sure needs a st punt and some new snb utility. Gameplay hasn't changed tho, beeing a waagh-bot wasn't particularly fun. I never liked the concept of cd decreasers so will be happy for some other utility. That they replaced it what that uther trash tactic tho is mindboggling.
true i didn't like the waaagh guard bot situation, but we had 2 nerfs in 2 weeks. bo's now the tank that u take if really nothing else is available.
