Speaking as someone playing snb dps- absorb is a must, Backlash is a must for dps, Quickened Discord is better then Daemonclaw in whatever version or the new tactic, and Flawless Armor I will take over Mixed defenses for pvp any day. Also, HtL+Quake is the main reason to go dps with snb.

IMO warped flesh and backlash are not necessities at high gear/rr. Especially backlash who’s damage doesn’t scale. That should free up at least one tactic for daemonclaw.

Warped Flesh is needed unless you have a dedicated healer (not happening most of the time unless you are in premade), Backlash without scaling does a better dmg than what you will get out of other options (assuming you are getting attacked)- also, as a snb dps, your str isn't high anyway so scaling matters less.

Every knight runs it if partied or in wb, even pugs...why is whole realm of Order getting 15% more heals, i still dont get it.

The only nerf that will actually have any impact on a halfway decent KOBS, is the removal of ap from 'Stay Focused!". They are still the best tank in the game by a fair margin

If you were running 2h, you shouldn't have been taking runefang or mighty soul anyway, there are far better options than increasing your own poor damage by a minimal amount. If you were trying to get meaningful dps out of your KOBS in the first place, you are being an active hindrance to any team you're part of.
If you were SnB, why the **** would you care about changes to 'damage' tactics anyway.

TL;DR: Stop whining because you're crap

I'm not so sure about s/b possibilities with this. Ravage is in the quake line, but 3 sec knockdown and mixed defenses tactic is in a separate line. You would sacrifice a lot of utility/decreased base damage on ravage to get daemonclaw. Which line could you live without?

RoR.builders - Chosen looks like it might be a decent high level build for S&B. RoR.builders - Chosen might also be an interesting (if not exactly optimal) way to go...

Well my little gobbo, you got your wish today. Kinda.
Stay Focused without AP regen is a dead aura. Nobody would use it now. Exceeept..
If you want to use Focused Mending tactic you have to run Stay Focused. Who would want to specc for Focused Mending now that the base aura is busted? Nobody, that's who.
Wish granted. "Soft Nerf" of Focused Mending achieved today.

Iam waiting to see how nobody gonna use Focus mending anymore that can't be real. 15% more heal for all is a dead aura?
