That rework was a nerf and a buff at the same time. Now its simply: different. Depending on the situation you are in BS is now either more or less effective than befor.

But the main advantage is: Ash is no longer the game breaker in Grineer-Missions he was befor. Due to the finishing damage you could simply play it on 175% eff and 200% dmg, use body count and AOE even lvl 100 eximus mobs with ease. You CAN still do that, but now it requires skill, because you have that time while marking targets where you are not invincible. So not everyone is using Ash in those missions anymore...

Which was VERY annoying befor. Without the need of marking targets you had almost no chance of dealing any damage as soon as one Ash was in your random group. You entered a room full of enemies, and even befor you can cast landslide with Atlas every single enemie turned red and even got invincible while ash did perform his attacks... This got even more annoying as soon as some1 was so unbelievable stupid to use Ash in infested missions with disruptors... -.- He keeps attacking that disruport, does almost no damage while the rest of the team is sitting around and can't do anything at all, because Ash's BS makes the Disruptor invincible while attacking him.... So you sit there for 30s waiting for Ash to end his BS... woho... fun...

Now Ash is still capable of dealing heavy damage especialy to Grineer, but he is no longer that frame everyone was using as soon as enemies were above lvl 30... You don't have at last one ash in every sortie random group anymore, which was VERY annoying as mentioned befor. Ash is still decent, but he is no longer that frame everyone used to play because tabbing 4 was easy....

And one has to mention: They did the same to Mag. Mag was entirely game breaking against Corpus units. Ash was against Grineer. It's ok that some frames are stonger against certain fractions than others... but there should not be a frame simply anihilating one fraction regardless of their lvl....
