Why are so many of the Beastlord's skills and alternate advancements linked to Autoattack when Autoattack plays absolutely no role? Even the Epic Spell has an autoattack component.
If its a nightmare to balance / update and only solution is to leave auto-attack super-mitigated, then maybe consider over-hauling all those AA's based abilities and epic 3 powers that support it into some different powers or nukes, would prefer not to be a complete mage in chain-mail but the Night is Dark and full of mitigated terrors
