Add this MAJOR debuff to the game and slap it on Monomyth

There is no MAJOR Timidity in the game currently. Why is that? One way to introduce it in a unique way would be to replace minor timidity on the monomyth ring. This will allow other forms of minor timidity (Barons Thirsk) to actually matter since it'll stack with this. What do you all think? With all the ways of getting ultimate in the game, I think this is a fair change, while at the same time still keeping the sheer power it can provide.

    Major Timidity wouldn’t matter for the same reasons Minor Timidity doesn't matter. Most people pop their ult as soon as they have it. Even if they don't, they can generate tons of ult on the front bar and not care about the Timidity. If Dawnbreaker costs 120 ult, and I have 300 ult stacked up, why would I care about losing 3 ult every two seconds or whatever?

    Frankly, both of the “downsides” to Monomyth are such a slap on the wrist, they might as well not exist, at all.

    You would be surprised as to how much ultimate actually gets eaten by Timidity over the course of a night of PvP.

    Of course, the Mythic is still completely worth it. But it does add up.

    Upgrading the Minor Vuln to Major Vuln would be the place to start balancing, IMO.

    Yes, considering the rarity of the buff that would be ideal. Maintaining Minor Vuln is really a non-factor in most cases.

    I don't know if that would be enough to counter-balance IMO, and that would make it much less appealing to use in PVE (although I'm aware this is primarily a PVP mythic).

    What I think would be a great counter-weight to it is if the Monomyth drained your crit resistance down to 0 when equipped. That would have zero impact in PVE (monsters don't crit) and in PVP, the extra crit damage comes with the major downside of making yourself more vulnerable to critical strikes. Even with Rally Cry + Transmutation, you would also be forced to fullly spec with Inpen perks to try to make up for the loss of your innate crit resistance or otherwise build straight glass cannon.

    Major/minor timidity is/would be a non factor IMO because most setups are made now so that you are only on your back bar for a few seconds, and then you flip to your front bar to build ulti, so you can largely avoid any downside with the debuff.
