So, what is the hold up on Beastmaster?

It's a little soon to say BLU is abandoned. It's not going to receive updates that early in the expansion cycle. x.4(5) is the likely target for regular updates going forward.

BLU already does savage and has its own challenges. You should actually run the content and see for yourself. It's a phase skipping glass cannon. Even the players don't want something like that doing certain content because it more or less negates the challenges of that content. If BLU could do ultimates, you'd have everyone running around with those weapons. The same would be true with PotD and HoH.

They're not going to do extra work to make separate versions of all that content or some kind of 'system' to restrict loot drops just for a niche class.

It's also not engaging in current content because that's likely all people would play. They don't do all that work on 20 other classes so one can be the go to for clearing all the latest content.
