I figured the nerf would affect something like IWAY only, where 10 Eviscerates at once would be nerfed, while one or two Eviscerates does the same thing.

You forget they nerfed tigers/bestial fury too. So you strike slower and gain adren slower as well. Guess it doesn't matter really, only two reasons I'd use evis. In pvp, where the damage reduct isn't so bad and you can use frenzy as an attack speed buff, and farming bosses in pve, where there are far better builds for that anyway. More worried about the fury nerf, was the main reason I go w/r, unless I was running a pet or apply poison+throw dirt for ViM. Though melandrus resilience is pretty good in some cases.
Maybe I just need to look into more w/r stuff...

Thank goodness most of you still see Eviscerate as a good skill. It is so stupid how people think, JUST because they see their skill in an update which takes off a few points of damage raises the recharge by 2 seconds or some other tiny change, they immediately think the skill is tainted or something, and is never again viable for any build... ever.

The same way, if Anet increases a skill slightly, it suddenly becomes the best thing since sliced bread.

So yes, Eviscerate is still a super deadly axe attack.

Eviscerate is not nerfed at all, I think it needed a bit of a tone-down.

I'm not as much axe as the other two weapons anyway, so I don't really care too much.

I personally like using the axe with Whirling Axe + Dismember. Very few people use block against it in Alliance battles (which is like all the PvP I ever do with my guild

) so it can be pretty painful.
