But you had wiggle room as a WAR before. Open up with smart usage of Unchained and Berserk stacked and you could push yourself far ahead to mix in different abilities. If DPS can't stay on the target the whole time (dodging and what not), you got more wiggle room. The key, and the fun part was knowing when you had it and how effectively to use it.

But now it's just ... there. Open with Unchained and Berserk and I may as well stick to my non-threat combos since they do all the buffs. I barely even have to bother trying to generate threat, it just happens.

It seemed like a great balance before, maybe they needed a little tweak to allow WAR to switch to BB->BB->SP from BB->BB->SE and have it generate the same amount of threat (since it does about 10% less damage), but they've gone way too far and took away an interesting and fun part of the game (enmity management).
