Imo I thought they just would remove FoF and Req, turn them into Traits, getting a flatout stronger 1-2-3 Combo and the Removal of Cast Times.
though I love the Confiteur Combo (of course), I'm not really a fan of pressing the same Button 4times (because I already do this in the combat macros, I written myself and are oGCDs unlike the Confiteur Combo which are GCDs...)
.. so why not Press Confiteur and after that the 1-2-3 Combo turns into the Valor Combo.. oh and another thing I noticed that the Valor DoT and Scorn DoT working side by side and the Goring DoT and the Scorn DoT working side by side.. but Goring and Valor!? NOPE!.. clunky.. well the Goring and Valor DoTs getting gutted so I better sell my ideas to some fanfic author or something.. another thing I'm thinking about was why Spirits Within doesn't share the Cool Down with Scorn?.. well okay since Spirits has become Expiacion it's kind of like Circle of Scorn without the DoT.. huh.. well imo Expiacion is a redundant Skill.. but as Tanks we do not really need to care about Single Target/AoE Situations so I think that's why they turned a Single Target Skill into an AoE Skill.. and yeah I agree that DV should just work like Shake, it's kinda cute that you have to activate it by getting healed but not even recieving the def cd as the Caster was stupid..

Sorry for my Paladin Change fanfiction, but I felt like writting something.
