11.1 - Reckless Abandon Issue

I like the idea of this talent changing to make the actual cooldown of Recklessness more impactful. However, we’re back to the same old problem we had when it did this before.

  1. When it only empowers two abilities it pushes everything else largely out of the rotation.
  2. This really makes it difficult for abilities like execute, rampage, odyn fury, and others to find their place during your cooldown. Those abilities also have additional issues beyond just their place in the cooldown, but alas

I like Bloodbath. I think Bloodthirst being a high priority anchor to the rotation is a good thing. But I’d like to argue that Crushing Blow be removed in favor of a global damage boost during Recklessness to make room for talented abilities and to allow Rampage to retain some emphasis.

Pretty much everything else has already been pushed out of the rotation. We don’t use execute unless its filler, full 3 filler stacks or about to lose the stacking buff (if talented). Odyn’s fury is a glorified whirlwind for aoe, We don’t talent Onslaught.

Longer CD abilities are still decent but they have to be considering they are 1.5 minute CDs.
