So it's been a couple of months down since Cauterize was "accidentally" nerf'd. And by nerf'd I mean basically "turned off altogether."
If this is going to remain the case, and there's going to be literally no effort to fix this issue and make Cauterize a working perk---Because as it sits right now, it's literally just a non-functioning slot on the skill-tree---There needs to be a PvE Buff to Sunbreakers.
Make each hammer deal 50% more damage vs. PvE enemies and increase the duration of Sunspots in PvE by about 5 seconds, in order to actually let Sunbreaker-Titan's take better advantage of the Overshield-Ability that they can grant, in place of having Cauterize.
Or, alternatively at, least make it so walking through a Sunspot triggers health-regeneration like Cauterize used to do.
At this point I'm skeptical that it was even "accidental" to begin with, because how long has it been? 2 or 3 months? No sign of a fix or a compensation to the problem what-so-ever, and it's seriously put a hindrance on the Sunbreaker's usefulness in Raid Scenarios, by removing their ability to regain health on enemy-kills.
However the suggestions I've made would help, I believe. Implementing either of the suggestions I've made would at least compensate for the buggery of the Sunbreaker's healing-ability.
