Perhaps upgrading goring blade into a Halone themed animation with ice, such as the attacks she does, or making a new animation would be more satisfying

Im of the oppinion that Attonement charges could have recieved an AoE spender. Perhaps adding 3 swords behind the shield gauge instead of the buff we currently have to have a nicer way to track them
I'm pretty sure what they're referring to is old goring blade which was a second combo finisher that was a DOT.

The Issue with Goring blade, is that it used to be a second combo finisher which effected how much you press Atonement, while Atonement was still "spam button" it wasn't quite as bad as it is currently. Turning it into a 60s button that lines up with your bursts, when you already have 4... Now 5 high potency burst buttons makes no sense gameplay wise.

PLD's current rotation has been ruined due to not having the finisher and doesn't need more 60s buttons, it needs more GCD combo paths to actually feel interesting and fun, PLD's already not a high APM job why does it have to be so bare bones and easy.
