Some changes I would prefer on these suggestions.
- Steel Strike :
base 20% chance to apply bleed.
2 pts adv : Open It : your Steel Strike now has 100% chance to apply a bleed if lunge further than 20 ft.
- Thousand Cuts : lockdown on a melee attack? That sounds rather suicidal. Sword Cyclone costs more energy but deals 179 base damage in a 10 ft sphere and no lockdown.
- Deflect : 0 pts adv : Crossed Blades : you know parry with 2 blades (cosmetic enhancement only).
- Killing Strike : I would prefer an AoE, personally
Blade Thunder : you gather your warrior focus to deliver severe bleeding attacks to your opponents.
110 energy cost
charge up AoE power
90 seconds cooldown
apply or refresh bleed on each opponent (10 max)
apply Burning Bleed for 10 sec, Burning Bleed refresh or apply 1 stack of Bleed (if no stack) and enhance them (2x more damages). Burning Bleed doesn't enhance Rupture. While Burning Bleed is active, you can not add new stacks of Bleed (only refresh). N.B. : This also means that we better avoid to rupture during Burning Bleed effect.
3 pts adv : Blade Dance : your Blade Thunder now roots you while you're charging it but you become immune to CC during the charging time. After charging, the immunity disappears and Blade Dance grants +1.5% crit chance and crit severity per stack on each bleeding opponent (maths might be tricky here if each opponent has a different number of bleed stacks). This buff lasts 5 seconds.
Aoe Maintain: well it was eaither give it a lockdown like ego blade tempest and eye of the storm, or have it cost a prohibitive amount of energy..and given those options i'd go with a lockdown.
Ultimate: Bleeds don't hit hard enough to warrent something like this being an ulimate power, and the advantage seems more like a "must get" than a "potentially better", after all Ulimates should be more than just "joke tier" powers ya know..

The adv would cost 3 points, last 5 sec and doesn't stack to each other. If a target has 3 stack of bleed then it's +4.5% for this target but if another has 2 stacks of bleed, the bonus doesn't stack. That other target would grant only +3% bonus against it.
Personally I like how it would add bleed tactics. Spread the bleed around you, estimate which target is the most important, stack bleeds on this target then trigger the ultimate to ravage them with a crit buff for 5 sec.
EB Tempest? Never heard of that one. EB Frenzy doesn't lockdown. EotS does lockdown but provides a base of 4k shield when maintained.
I think that SB players who want to secure stacks of bleed will still prefer Vile Lariat w/ Kyoketsu Shoge. Lockdown power too but it offers a 100% bleed, and more utility (50 ft range, knockto, more damages, lower cost).
and yes, i know most of the ulimate powers are like that right now, but it is something that I would very much like to see change, and the 3 point advantage would be an extreme must-have for your version of the power, as without it the power doubles damage from bleeds... meaning at the very basic they go from ~50 a tick to ~100 a tick... woo >.>

But if it doesn't cost 1 power+ 3 adv points it would be too cheap.
In my opinion, your Thousand Cuts is worse than Scything Blade : same range but lockdown, cost more energy, deal less damages and less chance to apply bleed. Make your Thousand Cuts a non-lockdown 10 ft sphere maintain pbAoE with increased chance to apply bleed the longer we maintain the power, and now we have something.
and the issue with your ulimate is that without the advantage it does diddly for damage, and with the advantage it still does diddly for damage, but it has some application outside of diddly damage dot.

Thousand cuts
Killing Strike
I HAVE A MIGHTY NEED FOR THOSE POWERS
Having over 6 Swordmen and all
/signed
Click here to check out my costumes/milleniumguardian (MG) in-game/We need more tights, stances and moods
the lunge and aoe are ALREADY in the code (TK blades, Laser Sword and Red Banner members say HI)
I don't want to use Punch-Knock-Dimensional-Magic Lunges for my Swordmen, I want LEGIT Blade Lunges
and I want that AoE cone attack to slice and dice like Raphael from Soul Calibur
FInally I want a legit sword ultimate, not Unleashed rage or Fury of the Broken Nerfed Dragon
