Shield Oath makes Sheltron useless.

[Xenosan]

Now you know why DRK drops Grit.

And DRK doesn't even need a block proc for a Price return. So PLD has even more incentive to be in Sword Oath relatively.

But you also have to exhaust a GCD to switch to Sword, whereas DRK just weaves Grit off, Blood Weapon on.

They doubled Siphon's MP restore in Grit, likely due to this very conundrum. PLD gauge in Shield Oath might get similar treatment. Hopefully.

to OP: switch to Sword Oath on single target, switch back before a tank buster if necessary, then switch back to recharge
