I am using the usual 2h khaine/hoeth build, when I played some snb WW I just didnt feel like I was doing much, not in a pug situation atleast, it's a builder better working in a premade.
Atleast as Khaine I am actually a threat while still offering Guard.

Hello , what do you think about the last changes?
I tried it and i'm not convinced about it:
I mean , before we could play 2H or SnB and have WW et CW , now we can't anymore.
I tried vaul's tree , i don't feel more tanky with the bubbles and redirected force was'nt very usefull( low damage)
I tried these reworked abilities...
RF is meh.
I like CA and having it stack with armor pots. I have to wonder though will Aethyric Armor be changed at some point since it doesn't stack with armor pots.
I can't decide if I want to stay with vaul tree or give in to ED.

I doubt Aethyric will be changed because it's a 30 minute buff whereas CA is a short duration thing like IBs guarded attack.
Also I flip flop between ED and Vaul. Wish I could be a no-skill-required BG and have both insane damage AND stupidly tanky, but sadly the Destro bias is real.

RF could be good/fun if it worked for any defended attacks (dodge , parry , disrupt...)
Still don't get the point of the bubbles in vaul's tree : it could woth it if we could share it with the rest of the group like PoH
Anyone use blessing of Heaven or bolstering enchantments?

While I agree that taken in a vacuum context where only SM and BG exist, BG is the clear winner.
I am not sure if BG can be considered no skill compared to SM. They do have much more stuff to keep track/press than us.

aboslutely not, last time I checked their tooltip their effects were LAUGHABLE to say the least.

Well i tried and donn't really like it : You're not tanky , not very usefull for you group. This path is still a big ? for me.

But the SM can already do insane damage and be stupidly tanky with EF/WoDS. And BG "no-skill-required" class, especially when compared with SM Blurring Shock Simulator 2018? Lovin' every laff mate.

What do you mean by blurring shock 2018?
