Although I hate you TKA's you should know, unless you have already seen it that warcry is being nerfed

The language is odd, but basically you cannot hold down one target while you beat on them, it is used to stop targets, ultimately indefinitely, while you do something else(not attack). At first glance I thought it meant a warcry on multiple targets, as no body else attacks them, but that doesnt make any sense and it does say "as long as they are not currently being attacked themselves"

The way it will work is you can charge into a bunch of tuskens and warcry to freeze them all temporarily so you can concentrate on beating one up. The warcried ones shouldn't attack as long as you don't hit them, until the effect wears off. At least that's my interpretation.

It sounds to me like an area Mezz/Calm (depending on your lingo). Kind of odd to give the "tanks" in the game a "crowd control" aspect.
I presume it wont work on people anymore either... which kind of sucks, but was somewhat inevitable with using warcry2 on KDed people...

Well, BH's should be happy with this publish... 
So, to those without any form of life other than to troll the boards of others...wouldn't now be a good time to go back to your boards? No need to be so whinny any more...wipe your tears and stop crying...
Frankly, I've never had to use Warcry in PvP...so doesn't truly affect me. However, when soloing 4 rancors, it's going to be quite nice not having them hit through the un-fixed armour hole of my backpack anymore...
So, warcry on the crowd, then KD/Dizzy on your target. Debuff, and whack away...

Go suck a lemon totem. Post this on the brawler forum you know the profession that actually gets warcry.

im not worried look it : Warcry has been changed from being a single target lock down preventing it from attacking to a method of “crowd control”. Enemies can be temporarily prevented from attacking as long as they are not currently being attacked themselves
the first thing i do being a masterbrawler is use warcry 2.... youre still gonna get pwned by warcry lil man.. this gives me the first attack no matter what!

So will warcry1 so why waste your points to get Master Brawler? Once you strike, the delay is gone.

Well, this works out better for me then.
No need to master brawler like I was considering.
Warcry 1 will be just as good, assuming I can hit within 10 seconds *giggle*

The little thing that bother me about the warcry change is that other(s) "delay" skill aren't changed too ( delay shot from pistole skill by example ).

I said this in another post, but it bears repeating. They need to change the name of Warcry to "Time Out!!" and then when the enemies are ready to attack again, they have to call "Time In!" before they can attack.
Or they could call it "Runaway! Runaway!" since that's the only benefit of a Combat skill that CAN'T be used in COMBAT!!!

Just call it the Monty Python skill. the "About Face, Charge" skill.
