First, this shield swipe change is hilarious. 15 sec cooldown? Hell, as a warrior I have an OGCD ability called brutal swing. It's only 20 seconds on cooldown, does just as much damage (More in deliverance) AND it stuns...for NO tp!

That's more of a gripe though, as the true issues lie in Paladin's horrid TP management (which is none, they just run out) and the super-bad GCD 120 TP stun does not help. I think Shield Bash should have been adjusted more, to 0 TP. The fact that it takes up a GCD *AND* interrupts combo is enough.
