Nice changes for destr..chosen+bg +20crit buff.. And what for Order ? another nerf..

[Specialpatrol]

What’s the reasoning to the change to Crippling Strikes?

It went from being a defensive tool (less dmg from target - and didn’t it used to be a 25% dmg reduction, by the way?) to a very offensive one.

At a glance, it looks like a quite huge buff to Chosen/Destruction: a somewhat mirroring of KotBS EA tactic, but without the Great Weapon/aura restriction - i.e. can be used with SnB and any auras (correct me, if I’m wrong).

With a 2-hander, Chosens can now also have a default +25% crit chance on their target - without even a point spent i renown crit.

Add in the access to a default moralepump tactic (which the knight or any of the other order tanks doesn’t have), it seems a bit unbalanced.

So destro now have more crit than Order. Something Order's crit rate was heavily nerfed for. Destro also get to keep their free morale pumps. What are Order getting?

The war is changing again... Welcome back chosens!

Requires not only a hit, but a crit, is non-refreshing, and requires a pretty gimpy build to work well for wabrands at least afaik.

And moralepumps were nerfed.

Are you kidding me? I am playing a Kotbs mainly, and i am happy destro got it.
Order got 2x crit buffs on kotbs, 10 % from IB, 7 % from SW.
Order still got group crit buff, destro dont.
