    I think we can all agree that the skill could use some QOL to avoid making a macro for it to just simply work. In a game where speed and GCD's matter greatly I fail to see how everyone is ok with how this skill works.

    It needs reworked. If MNK get's form shift QOL to refresh stacks then I don't understand the problem for making nascent glint an AOE without having to target. Whats the big deal? Why fight it?
    I play with controller too, and if you use a macro it eliminates the majority of the clunk.

    /ac "Nascent Flash" <2>
    /micon "Nascent Flash"

    works the same for Shirk, Cover, Intervention, TBN and HoS.

    Thing is you can cry all you want about targeting, but the rest of the tanks have to deal with it. It is not a WAR only issue. For the other tanks we use macros that do work to remedy the clunkyiness. The only issue is sometimes macros do not queue properly, but WARs NF is the only support skill that has the advantage of working even if late to apply as it can still heal up the targeted party member and self, while, Intervention and HoS are useless after the damage, while TBN, if it doesn't break costs the Dark knight an Edge / Flood. So even then WAR benefits while Dark Knight suffers a loss.

    If you remove Shake it Off to gain AoE Nascent Glint at a reduced amount of healing of course, then sure, it would be more thematic to WAR, but while it has one, it should not have the other. But for both that might be an expansion skill but there should be an equivalent skill for the other three tanks to keep the balance across the four tanks toolkits.
