Barb skill question

So I haven't been here in about six months, and the first thing I noticed were...pandas? Really? Anyways, I see that there is a (Mighty) version of the demon/sage True Form which says is more powerful than regular sage/demon true form. So basically, are the panda versions the same stat/skillwise as the Mighty versions? Or was it someone's brilliant plan to force barbs to play as Kung-Pow Panda to get the best stats?

The panda form is the exact same as the normal tiger form. Its just a new form to use, you can use the old skills with the new form. What the mighty versions do is they allow you do normal damage in tiger form (as far as I know).

So...they removed class differentiation between sage and demon tigers....? That makes no sense.

Sage tiger gives 20 chi per cast, Demon tiger gives 5% less chance to take critical hits (like the mage Sand Miasma).  You should also check out the skill updates, a lot of the older classes got their skills updated.

They made Sage Barbs OP in tiger form ^^ The skill updates that came with the forms are passive, meaning you don't activate them with skills they are just on when you change into tiger. The Demon 5% reduce chance to receive a critical hit is not absolute however. Its only active for about 6 seconds after transformation. Sage now no longer have a damage output reduction in tiger form.

It's the age old question and one I know Jhin and I have gone over before. I still need to do a proper comparison on each one really
