As to it being a "free" cast because Overpower is so expensive, you've got Steel Cyclone, which fills the same niche and does it better.

My 5 CC abilities are Provoke, Conv, Featherfoot, IR, and either Mantra or Awareness depending upon the fight (if there is AoE damage, like on the Ex primals, I take Mantra; if it's really nasty burst, like t1, t4, or t5, I use Awareness).

And the 3rd instance is dungeon runs where you want flash. You really want all 3 (mantra,awareness,flash) and sub them in accordingly. Featherfoot is pretty pointless in Coil and flash can be useful when gathering mobs like in Turn 4.
