Shield Swipe- How often do you use it?

[Viik]

I think the fact that everyone seems to feel that Shield Swipe is better as a DPS increase than being used as intended is a sign of the big problem here. It needs to be removed from GCD. Sure, this would mean it would be OP as a DPS increasae, which is why the damage needs to be nerfed all to hell.

To make it work in tank rotation without upsetting the balance too much, I think following things need to happen:
-Remove it from global cooldown
-Reduce damage and increase threat so it's somewhere between Savage Blade and RoH

Functionally, it's a fun ability and breaks the monotone of FB-SB-RoH combo, but it's just not worth using at the moment.
