It has to do with the fact that we have relatively high combo potencies with resources stacked on to it, so Bloodspiller is only an 96-100 potency gain on two of the three combo steps. Fell Cleave is a bigger impact move in comparison because WAR has lower combo potencies and a bigger difference between the two.

I don't think TBN should break off of autos, but that's a consequence of the fact that they made the ally shield weaker. The personal shield is the correct difficulty level.
