The skill was bad, it was always bad. The only time it wasn't bad was in PvP because it could remove aetherflow from SMN and SCH and shut them down then it got nerf. Then it was reworked during the pruning era, which is ironic into something still completely useless in 99.99% of encounters, even in the 00.01% of encounters where it 'could' be useful, it still felt bad to use as you either drop twin or lose a true strike. The better option would always be to use leg sweep. There really isn't an arguement to be had here. OIP is and has always been useless in PvE content because it filled a niche role which cannot be made viable as it would then become mandatory, and even then it would still feel like crap to use for the reasons I mentioned.
