    Well Shield Swipe used to be worth using because it was a DPS gain to do so (plus good on TP management). Now that it's a DPS loss to use, it loses some of its appeal.

    Part of the problem with Swipe and stances being on the global cooldown is that it ruins your skill flow. Right now you have enough time to cycle all 3 combos and it just keeps up the relevant debuffs. If you slot in a stance switch or swipe in there, then you have to let the debuffs drop for 2-3 seconds

    Plus stances breaking combo limits where you can switch them. If you're mid combo and want to switch to Sword Oath, you end up cancelling Shield Oath > finishing combo > putting up Sword Oath. Going from Sword to Shield you basically have to pre-emptively put it up if you know you'll be mid-combo when you need to switch.
