I’m just being sarcastic, I’m actually going to rant here.

Juggernaut, Elite Skill:

Take the form of a massive juggernaut, reducing the damage you take and the duration of incoming movement-impeding conditions.

Damage Reduced: 25%
Swiftness (3s): 33% Movement Speed
Stability (3s): Cannot be knocked down, pushed back, pulled, launched, stunned, dazed, floated, sunk, feared or taunted.
Immobilize: Unable to move.
Crippled: -50% Movement Speed
Chilled: -66% Skill Recharge Rate, -66% Movement Speed
Boon Application Interval: 3s
Duration Decreased: 33%
Duration: 15s

240 seconds for a skill that removes my healing and utility bar for five moves that are at best, clumsily slow to use. If you ask me, I’m of the opinion that this skill is a waste of my choice for my Elite Skill slot. Sure, you can exit it early to reduce the time to 180 seconds. Still, the problem is not so much the recharge time. I don’t know any one running a warrior build who finds this skill to their liking or to their likelihood of use. If it were up to me, I’d have this skill reworked, swapped, or removed and put as a skill used by a consumable item called something generic like “Adrenaline Potion” or “Story of the Juggernaut”. Then just have it last on someone for five minutes for historic novelty of the useless skill that once was. Otherwise, it’s a lame skill that is undoubtedly laughable to incorporate in almost any PvE or PvP build.

If I were to make a suggestion if it’s going to be in the skill list, I would change out Juggernaut for Wild Blow or Sundering Leap in the elite skill slot. Otherwise, I would recommend a total renovation of the skill Juggernaut, because the skill’s name doesn’t live up to its reputation.

Thoughts?

I was told stories of it being used effectively before adrenal health became a thing. I never truly believed those stories tbh. Honestly haven’t seen it much if at all the past couple months…..and I think we all know why. Berserker (? idk)….adrenal….healing signet (or mbe it works since its a passive idk)….ur core warrior trump cards don’t even work while ur using this so called ultimate. Then we consider the fact it was never a great skill to begin with and was very situational at best and niche build…and the long cd…..AND WE HAVE A LOSER!

Juggernaut was a thing before headbutt came.

Well, if nothing else it still works wonders at Thermonova fractal to get across the cooling chamber.
