    Eh... I'm unsure how to reply to this, I'll admit. This is like if someone asked me "How is sunlight bright?" or "Why is water wet?". I bet it can be answered, but I struggle to think how to do it, personally. You're essentially asking "Why would making something generic instead of unique make it less unique?", you know?

    I mean, it'd be making its unique capacity more accessible. That's, at least indirectly, likely to see it do more with its more uniqueness. We'd need only say its having its stun tied to a GCD was unique if others had stuns by other means; as is, though, its having a stun at all (now that AST lost its stun), is the unique feature.

    I'm on the fence myself, tbh, as I'd rather just see 'fixes' to Low Blow (and partly to Interject) itself and don't want to abandon the frequency of use available, but I'd at least say then that WHM ought to have an alternate AoE (even if that were, say, Dia detonating part of its duration each time it's Glared) for a similar reason: WHM's stun would be more interesting if it could be more precisely leveraged.
