If you look at all past examples, 99% of the time they leave things in for 3 months and just patch it at the next update. If it were 100 tp/tic it would have been fixed over night, but as is it was 30 seconds for a ws with no melee, which wasnt terribly , but was obviously broken.

I feel bad for all you bandwagon pups who only started playing when burts were noticed to be broken.
Not sure I agree that burts is "fixed". It does nothing now, litterally nothing. Just look at 2 of the level 89 JSE daggers as an example, Rapidus and Triplus? Now that burts has been nerfed down to the equivalent of that level 77(?) bst axe (I have one and I can't even remember the name since I never use it, it's just an inv -1 item) whose only use is for the paltry regain it is not on par with any of the other dropped 89 weaps. The only useful weaps for pup are trial weaps or the damn near impossible to get mythic Kenkonen. We don't even have a relic as an alternative.

Burts should not be a reatively weak level 77 equivalent. They are a level 89 JSE weapon and as such should be on par with the other level 89s. Moreover, pup was designed to be another solo type job, like beast but with a different skill set from the pet. In that regard, burts might actually be justified to be more powerful than the other 89s to keep that solo dynamic in place. 10/tic I'll agree was a bit high, but anything 3-6/tic would be appropriate.
