Wait, what does torn tendons/wrist fractures even do? I can't tell.
I haven't done any fighting yet but I imagine it will be harder for me to build momentum against other momentum classes now because my finisher is all in the leg break disembowel route. Depending, of course, on how effective clumsiness might be on certain classes.
I was using targeting in Weaponry. Is that the only way?

Besides that, this is a pretty flat nerf but seems well deserved and not over the top. I'll miss the potency of the head fracs but I wonder if it will make it worth while for people to ever try parrying something else. I still doubt it though.
I really just think it means you're going to be getting less of an effect from one broken leg+prone to a precision overhand and letting them deal with that. I also think that recurring clumsy as the primary affliction now is going to be pretty great.
Been trying to get your mudlet set up before we get into all that
Yush :hurrah: We must hurry, because Natharok (He's like my rival/friend from Targossas. -cough cough-) is getting harder to kill.

And also to Aepas point about parrying head, what this looks like to me is that it's viable to parry other things if you can heal decently.
Unbuffed disembowel might be a legit method to (try to) kill, but there shouldn't be an expectation that it just always works, either. Less artied people won't have the luxuries that you do, and may have to explore those other options to increase their damage. Until those have been shown to be totally uneffective, complaints about the specs viability seem a bit premature.
Ultimately, "Priest survives disembowel without torso damage" isn't a convincing argument, no matter how much damage you dished out with reduced sip balance beforehand. Priest is pretty well suited to keep their health up despite the slower, or weaker, health sips.

Learning to get that torso prepped is what will skyrocket you into the higher tiers of combat.
I guess I am kind of surprised you guys don't see 5 head stacks not being enough, because 5 head stacks for me was the ez-win if there was one as 2h.
