    True. It really does seem more like a QoL adjustment than anything else; though, in PvP specifically, it could allow for a slightly stronger/sustained burst at the expense of going broke on your Mp. It would be one of those "all or nothing" decisions that you could make in the spur of the moment. Personally, I enjoy that kind of aspect of PvP.

    Another example of that spur of the moment decision making right there. Pld's have similar decisions to make when deciding where to direct their attention (healer support vs. Dps support and where to utilize their stuns). I think this will make Drk have a similar play style. Instead of just attacking willy-nilly, they'll now have to weigh their actions between effect vs burst and which is more needed. I don't think that decision will be all that difficult, as the tank is not often the direct target of an assault, but it will definitely give them something to think about later in the match when they start to collect medals and get increased vulnerability.

    It lets you do more Dork Arts through oGCD skills, such as SaC and dork passenger, not just in PvP but PvE too for that extra boost in dps.
