Lunar Blessing Rework Feedback

I see a lot of people talking about how they are happy about the Lunar Blessing changes but not much critical feedback other than that people are unhappy about it being melee only to trigger now. I would like to share my feedback as someone who is playing Amazon wolf form on the right side of the tree rather than the standard left side that most are playing and how this change affects my playstyle.

Before the patch, I was able to maintain pretty much full uptime on Lunar blessing as long as I had >50% rage when i was activating. Gameplay felt really smooth and fluid, Im doing full melee anyway so I didnt really feel the melee trigger change.

What I did feel however is the cooldown change. On right side of tree I have no access to warcry, rage, or cooldown nodes which means that with the cooldown change even running full uptime supports with efficiency, second wind, cooldown, prolonged duration, I am only able to sustain the form for 22/28 secs, ~78% uptime even when only activating at max rage. That 6 second downtime feels reaaaaaallly bad to play. In effect what ends up happening is that during my 22 seconds of uptime im cruising around having a great time doing my GGG approved 4 button skill rotation (pounce, lunar assault, shred, cross slash), but once im on 6 second cd i find myself sitting there waiting for it to comeback doing nothing before engaging the next pack. It really destroys the flow of the gameplay for wolf on right side of tree.

I understand how builds on left side who have access to the rage and warcry nodes arent negatively affected by this change and would even consider it a buff but for right side of tree it really hurt the playstyle of the build without any straightforward way of resolving it other than maybe anointing a 25% warcry cooldown node which still doesnt solve the problem and would have the cost of losing a big dmg/defense bonus. The change feels to heavily incentive to the point of forcing left side atlas for wolf shapeshifting which has diminished my enjoyment of the game. Oh well, 1 week in already i guess its GGG telling me its time for a new build.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
