The first 40 choppa in the world spawned on IR, have gone against it in quite a few scenarios, so far, I'm unimpressed. The burst damage is decent and the AOE can be devastating, but if you kite them off to the side it kind of nullifies their purpose of doing high amounts of AOE Melee DPS. I've also noticed that they get absolutely RAPED by AOE spec'd BW's. I basically just kite the choppas into the nearest RoF spam and they fall down in like 5 seconds. With the new resist changes and their resists getting murdered the higher their rage is, its a pretty obsolete MDPS class to run in groups. I mean if you are getting hit by PoS/RoF for 1300+ with 40% resists, you can expect to get hit for 2kish or so with the 20% they have in full rage mode. So unless they have good pocket healers (and by good I mean sacrificing the rest of the group) there is no point to play a Choppa.
Just my opinion though.
well depends if you are running premades

our setup is 1 chosen, 1 shamy/dok , me ( zealot ) , 1 choppa and 2 x sorc beats almost everything ;D
