4.05 - Tank DPS comparison

Ahh, so you're assuming if we want to make it better by taking it oGCD, they would nerf its potency.

We're arguing for removing it from the GCD as an improvement.

Being on the GCD its potency numbers make it look tough, but the opportunity cost of MP and Blackblood gain take away from that "shine" a bit. Therefore, it needs to be oGCD. No one is advocating for a simultaneous nerf.

Due to costing 50 Blackblood, the cooldown is more than adequate.

Except it doesn't have a cooldown. It has a cost. The building of the gauge may act as a pseudo cooldown, but -not- using bloodspiller doesn't lose uses, unless you're already at 100 gauage / shoot over.

Not even in a Summoner's best day, who has the literal highest OGCDs in the game, would it come close to what an OGCD, 'as is' Bloodspiller would do. (Edit: I suppose technically that goes to Samurai's Gurren, but !@#% them, amirite?)

No, it going off the GCD necessitates it being weaker. You don't get to have it both ways, else the warriors are going to come in for a word mate.

We're talking about what, 4 extra GCDs per minute?

I highly doubt that change would suddenly make us the go-to tank and get WAR tears flowing. It just sucks that being on the GCD we must weight it against our resource generating attacks so it is far weaker than it may appear to a casual observer. I'd like there to be no tradeoffs to using our strongest ST attack, like when it was CnS.
