Like damage isn't already high enough with ZOS catering to Stam builds with Malacath/OP sets and healing nerf from last patch...
Those changes only favours bigger groups chasing solo players down across the map even more.

That set was far from popular but they still managed to gut it completely.

All of what I say here may be according to faulty logic and bad math. Maybe Bastion is the real outlier. Aren't the various 2-4 bonuses supposed to be relatively equivalent? I might be wrong, but besides not being subject to Penetration, isn't 5% mitigation roughly equivalent to 3350 Armor, and 3% equivalent to 2010 Armor? Regular 2-4 Armor is at 1487 (or 2.21%). Agility's Stam is roughly 60% more than the regular 2-4 Stam, so if these things are all supposed to be about the same, a 3 piece set Armor bonus should be 2364, or 3.5% Mitigation. I'm not sure how we can quantify the impenetrability (not that kind!) of these percentile mitigations, so maybe that additional 0.5% is meant to reflect that.
Either way about that, the 3rd line from 3 Item Sets doesn't appear to be balanced or related to anything else, and 3 Piece Potatoes is much less popular than 2 Piece, so I'm in favor of buffing that 3rd line of Ult Cost Reduction.

Yes that does make sense, that if Bastion's 4 item is 3%, Potatoes 2 item should be 5%, and it does make sense that these bonuses are stronger than Armor since they are limited to PvP (otherwise a mixed PvE/PvP player would be motivated to prefer Armor bonuses over this), but how do we account for the "impenetrability"? Is there any way to relate these bonuses to set-afforded Minor/Major Protection?
On the PTS potentates is 3 % instead of 5 %

Buffer the swift gives more dmg reduction than heavy armor

Bastion of heartland was the Raid group meta set. So its kinda good, that they nerfed it.
