    This mean that Awareness and Shield Swipe from GLA/PLD are going to be looked at?
    They're about as useful as BLM's Freeze in endgame content.

    Freeze needs to go back to what it was in 1.0. Blizzard II should probably be looked at as well. I'm glad to hear they're at least aware of these "issues" and are looking into them.

    Shield Swipe is good for doing damage & maintaining TP. And on the enemies it works on it is pretty godly. Neutered enemy for 12+ seconds wuuuuut.

    I can't really defend Awareness....I guess if you want to avoid a Death Sentence crit? If they extended the duration to 30secs that would honestly be enough for me. Is that OP? Nah.

    Awareness is pretty important in 2.2 and it can be cross classed. Shield Swipe is incredibly powerful. Although its "old content" a paladin can interrupt all of Ifrit HM's eruptions and the "stack" plumes while tanking using a well timed shield block. What would make shield swipe more important is if it was usable on more enemies, such as interrupting ADS high voltage.

    Won't happen... Pacified is LITERALLY the opposite of silence.
