Not to mention saving stam for other useful things.
Phalanx II actually does just as much damage as other weapon skills, Except Riot blade, but doesnt cost 2000tp either. It is where a good gladiator gets most of its single target damage from if he/she is tanking. 250tp, no stam, very short cooldown.
