How would they fix PLD 4.0?

I almost feel like they kinda picked on pali the more I play it , and its my defacto main but its reallly just horrible. Palis highest attack is 100 less potency than drk soul eater combo, 150 less potency than warrior fell cleave. They give it zero aoe basicly other than your 25 sec gcd one while drk and warrior each get three different aoes that attack and warrior gets overpower plus berserk, with added bonus of maim along with the option to use unmend in tank stance.

Up until 50 as pali u basically spam riot blade and your argo combo , while the other two tanks actually have their stuns in their rotations (low blow, and brutal swing). Its really insane to me why they would cripple such an awesome job like this that has a great story and many people love the sword and shield. The least they could do if they arent gona do anything else is like I said earlier reduce cool down on the following abilities,

Spirits Within to 10 seconds, Circle of Scorn reduce cd to 10 seconds are zero seconds, cut clemency cd to 500 mp, and cut down the cool down of sentinel and hallowed ground they should shave off at least two to three mins

But Royal Authority can be used over and over for free. And keep in mind that PLD have the highest DoT potency of all the jobs with Goring Blade.
Yes, its damage is lower but "horrible" is a bit strong.

Spirits Within is a free 300 potency on a 30s timer, Carve & Spit is a MP costly 450 potency on a 60s timer. Even factoring the 15% damage boost thanks to Darkside, its average potency is lower, even before Fight or Flight.
