    I actually think they'll nerf Fell Cleave. Give Utility, take some potency.

    I agree with this I would not be surprised if war gets a small potency nerf if they are getting utility

    also apparetly SHAKE IT OFF will act as something akin to thrill of battle but for the whole team I'd this is actually a veru significant and neat buff and defintely brings up the value of warriors over dark night I think DRK needs some future adjustments probably fo 4.15 or 4.2 they need to bring their dps and utility slightly up I'd say maybe make TBN a party shield similar to SS2 use to be now all tanks will do similar damage and bring the same utility value hell make is so TBN is highly effective against magic attacks to bring some flavour to DRK.

    I hope this is what they'll do. I'm having trouble understanding the translation in regards the Fell Cleave changes, other than it's being changed. There seems to be some confusion as well whether or not it will be made available in defiance,; the quote in question specifically (from reddit):

    で、フェルクリーブで使命と原初の解放が、今まで個別にアクションそうといられたんですけど、スタンスによって使える使えないが変わるので、お引き換えアクションになります
    "As for Fell Cleave and Inner Release, until now they've been separate actions, but whether or not you can use them changes depending on stance, so they will become interchangable actions."
    To me it seemed that there would be a change because FC/IB and IR/Unchained already share buttons, but I guess it could also be interpreted as IR and FC being combined into a button based on... gauge? That also seems weird to me though. Make of it what you will.

    That translation makes it sound like they will just become '1 action' whose stats change based on stance. Think more like blood spiller. It is 1 action, but has different effects and even potency based on grit/no grit. To me I read it as something like: FC and inner release are being deleted. IB will now loose the DR and gain potency if used in Deliverance (a la blood spiller), Unchained will ignore Defiance penalty in defiance and half gauge consumption in deliverance.

    Just kinda simplifying the system. Why have 3 abilities with clones for another stance when you cant ever use the 'other' one anyway? They already 'swap' on your hotbar with stance. Why change the icon at all. More of a QoL/streamline type thing.
