Shield Bash unnecessary GCD that should have been removed along with WAR and DRK stun if they were going to put DRK Low Blow on Role action system which is actually worse than the cross class system despite me never playing FF11 before since that is were the inspiration for it came from. They could have easily removed cross class entirely but let each of the jobs keep all of their abilities while adding and consolidating casters abilities so that everyone doesn't complain about ability bloat. They also could have given more options from cross class abilities that could have made sense with their lore and role but choice to stick with role over instead... My hopes of balance are not very high right now due to how bad gameplay is right now for some of the jobs, not even the new jobs were interesting and still play DRK but it feels more like a chore rather than fun...

Shield bash being on GCD makes it by far the strongest stun in the game. No other job can stun lock, as their stuns have cooldowns, shield bash does not. This is why it was not removed, as it is a far stronger ability than low blow

While this is true, how often do you need to stun a target twice? not very often. Oh and there is also the detail that it actually breaks your current combo.

I'm sure there are more instances, but I distinctly remember it being extremely useful in T5, Levi ex, and A6S, and I'm betting more fights in the future (now that every single job has a stun)
