What are your thoughts on the Gunbreaker's new charge animation?

I simply find it bollocks that Plunge could not be repurposed in some fun way while keeping it along with the new Shadowstep when many othwr jobs have such mechanics.

Yeah, Plunge wasn't exactly something that polluted the oGCD of DRK during burst phase.
Hopefully it will come back as a GCD similar to Primal Rend, but with different condition, after 3 uses of Bloodspiller you could get access to Super Dark plunge.

I don't think asking for Dark Primal Rend is going to stop the WAR clone comparisons.

It takes 2 oGCD slots every burst window for just 300 potency total, it's definitely the best choice of skill to remove.

That was just a wild throw, it could be a ranged attack, anything really.
I just named it as "Dark Primal Rend" because people seemed to like Plunge animation.

Whatever form it takes, I don't exactly mind about it. I wish the burst would feel more connected together rather than just random oGCDs we spam in burst windows.

I don't disagree, I'm open to both. DRK is still flexible in which way it wants to use its burst.
I personally like removing Plunge and fully using it as a mobility tool.
But I wouldn't mind keeping Plunge as a oGCD.

In any case, Plunge existing or not isn't the biggest problem of EW DRK or DT DRK.

The really odd part about Gunbreaker gapcloser (for me at least, i don't main this class so take it with a grain of salt) may be the fact that it start to dash in such a "brutal" way in order to just full stop before the add/boss due to the fact that the gapcloser doesn't do damage, which makes the animation a bit weird.
But as i said i don't main the class, if the ability goes well with the class fantasy/gameplay of the gunbreaker fine by me, if not gunbreaker mains should talk about (it if they feel like it of course).

It's not, and not everything has to do with potency. It's a great ogcd to optimize a little bit more to squeeze out dps, yet you don't lose too much if you miss your windows. Satisfies both minmaxers and casuals. Kinda like shadowflare was for scholar.
