To those who are defending this CA, I think you are ignoring the main reason why Zerkers have a legitimate complaint about it. If you look at all the other new t7 fighter CA's not a single one (except ours) has a penalty involved with it. As such, all of them (except ours) our perfectly viable when tanking. The new bruiser one, for example, procs 150-200 damage and stuns on every CA for 20 seconds. Having Juggernaut do exactly what it does now, but just removing the penalties would more or less bring it in line in my opinion. With the penalties, it is FAR less useful and simply not in the same league as the other new fighter CA's (NONE of which, I remind you, have penalties except ours).Finally, to whoever said that Juggernaut does not take aggro from the Main Tank, that is not entirely true. The most effective use (dps wise) for Juggernaut is to use it in conjunction with open wounds--which very frequently results in aggro on the zerker. Because of this, I think Juggernaut should ideally be a tanking CA...except for the mind boggling penalties!There is a problem with this CA. It simply is not in line with the other new fighter ones.My 2 cents.
