What in the what now? A free alt-Kaiten available every 15 seconds would be both broken and convoluted, all while again defeating the point of being rewarded for awareness of the timing of raid damage.
I'm not advocating that we tie Third Eye into Kaiten at all, but Third Eye just doesn't feel good to use. Latency can screw you out of actually parrying anything, and with Seigan gone it feels like we've been left with half a skill that's only there because "hey look, Sekiro parry button." FFXIV isn't an action combat game, trying to make it play like one for one job for thematic reasons just isn't working. It was bad enough when Merciful Eyes got nerfed so hard that everyone took it off their bars. We could've kept Seigan as a transforming button like Ogi Namikiri/Kaeshi Namikiri is now.
