    If you happen to parry. Which with 5 wrath stacks is 10% more often, equating to an average of 2% additional damage reduction in the long run. If you never use your wrath stacks. And the monsters are in front of you.

    If you're worried about mitigation, just use inner beast instead of holding onto the wrath stacks. Steel cyclone isn't for mitigation, it's for fast AoE threat, especially when you're surrounded.

    But I do like the idea of steel cyclone having a chance to proc fracture on targets it hits.

    And adding a bleed effect on SC which already does 200 potency without taking the Defiance damage penalty into account would make it superior to Decimate which does 280 AoE potency and is the Deliverance equivalent to SC. It would be stupid. SC is fine as it is. Maybe add a little side effect like the healing from 1.0, to get something equivalent to Inner Beast but for AoE situations. But that's all.

    I was speaking about the parry rate.

    the bonus itself is only 2% though (10% for 20%), and is worthless compared to the huge advantage of SC
