    I don't understand this new mentality that has cropped up. How is losing mana and a GCD literally "NO penalty"? If you wanna debate bigger/smaller penalties whatever... "NO penalty"? Come now. Hyperbole doesn't help anyone.

    In 3.x literally nobody ever said that PLD or DRK had "no penalty" for changing stances, and if you did, people would have laughed your own ass off for you. That same penalty is still present.

    DRK loses a ton of mana, a GCD, and Blood Weapon turning Grit on. PLD loses a GCD and mana both ways. These are huge penalties, not "no penalty".
