    You have Passage of Arms AND Divine Veil, thats enough to help healers with mitigation in my opinion and reprisal is the cherry on top of the cake, not to mention that is your raid utility and we haven't even gone across your PERSONAL mitigation.
    EDIT: You can have the skill still within the role action, but I don't think theres anything wrong with having something similar that gives more and gives DRK part of its identity back.

    Anyway, in another thread someone had an idea to bring the old reprisal back and give it exclusively to DRK. But the way it worked was different to Crater's idea, I am still all for gaining Reprisal back and this new idea for the skill still has not changed my mind. Awesome idea, making its synergy with TBN would make it more appealing to use it often, and to be proc'ed even as OT.

    There's nothing about this suggestion that, to me, implies that PLD or WAR (or DRK) should lose the 4.x Reprisal. A name/animation change would be the only hurdle to this suggestion's implementation.

    The logic is deafening.

    There's actually astoundingly little work that would have to go into that, too. Considering that SE re-used the 3.x Delirium animation for Interject on all three tanks (Seriously, go look at it - PLD even grabs their sword and swings it with both hands) they clearly don't mind re-using the animations from actions that were removed from the game, and there's actually a huge number of old animations just sitting there from the old cross-class sytem (personal favourite: DRK's Skull Sunder, at 40s on that video).

    The old Reprisal even has a completely separate skill/debuff icon from the cross-role skill.

    Assuming that this suggestion be taken for critique, I could be petty and suggest we give Tempered Will over to the cross-role for tanks assuming we take Reprisal back to being a DRK-exclusive. It's not a skill that a PLD will use all the time, and it's situational enough to justify slotting in something else. That's not even including how PLD has access to now 2 stuns.
