Why isn't TakeDown reverted back to a prone?

It's pretty unfair for GWF's. And I'm saying this as an HR. I get boar charge, which PRONES (Aka negates deflect) but GWF got their prones downgraded to stuns, I understand for FrontLine Surge, but TakeDown?
It's TAKE DOWN, not Take Stun, the opponent is supposed to be tackled to the ground.
Keep FLS a stun obviously, but give them at least a prone back. Because excluding the Intimidation BS, GWF aren't as threatening as before anymore, I loved fighting against them but now they're like cannon fodder brutes with a big sword that almost anyone dispatches easily.
They need their presence and dignity brought back a little.

Frontline Surge and Takedown made much more sense as prones, and I think both should become prones again. Unfortunately I don't expect that to happen after what the devs said about it.
They said GWF's had "Easy access to prones"
Just takedown being a prone makes more sense, or we'll find ourselves with a mix of Intimidation/Prones and GWF will reign again.
I don't think that changing two stuns for two prones of the same duration will make any difference. The only ones affected by that are classes that can break free from stuns, and let's be honest: they need it.
GWFs were balanced already, and this change had nothing to do with it. These powers now make me feel like I'm magically paralyzed, while I should feel like I was hit by a truck.
Changing stuns to prones WOULD make difference. It's because stun can be deflected and prone not. Stun duration reduced to like 0.3-0.5s by passive stats is bull****. GWF needs like 1s long CC to land IBS.
+ there are a bunch of butthurt nabs who want to destroy GWF and qq about everything as long as there still is somebody who plays GWF
Well GWF was OP through very long time especially on the beggining when he could fight 5 vs 1. I think GWF is ok right now. 50k hp + nice defens + deflection chance and thanks to indomination still chance to give massive dmg. And dont tell me GWF are losing with HRs becouse every other class have this same problem.
After all, we want to keep this fair. Don't we?
Aelar Hawkwind - Archer
Karrin Feywinter - Mistress of Flame
Errin Duskwalker - Executioner
Darquess - Soulbinder
There's a reason to GWFs be unable to kill HRs.
You think this is right?
Fls is OK as a stun, but with current state of other classes TD could get back to being a prone.
Intimidation is cheap. Devs are turning everything into a cheap versione of the original combat system.
Most GWFs will agree that the intimidation build feels gimmicky and not anywhere near as fun to play as mod 3 GWF. I miss having IBS on my bars, I do not enjoy a 15-17 second CD rotation that is basically just 1shot someone and run away while on CD.
The intimidation build is also pretty squishy, infact there are no pvp gwf builds that aren't squishy and have decent damage.
Mod 5 is nerfing intimidation but not giving GWF anything else, some wierd buffs to Instigator.. which still leave it being inferior to Destroyer... So yeah. What the hell will GWFs do mod 5?
And once again, the intimidation build feels like poo to play, it's got lol burst but that's it.
