    I really miss Brutal Swing's animation.

    Brital swing is actually yet another example of why utility shouldnt be dps buttons. You remember trying to get the entire party to stop using stun actions on ifrit so the tank could stun his moves before he became immune? 'Hey drgs dont use leg sweep or spineshatter. No brutal swing. That mnk move. Etc. The entire party had to stop using their normal rotations that had stuns built in so you could actually....stun things.

    Sticking utility with dps gain actions just doesnt work out because dps always takes priority over utility unless absolutely neccessary (and if it isnt neccessary, then you dont really need the utility in the 1st place) and then it annoys people to lower their dps when it is neccessary. So its eithee no one cares, or makes people mad. That sounds like a bad skill.

    That seems a better example of why a game shouldn't have a braindead DR system. We've have comprehensive ways of fixing exactly those problems, listed right here on these forums, since ARR, and yet rather than making even the slightest attempt to fix CC, they opted instead to remove it from the game.
