That being said, I also believe the ability needs a bit of tweaking (the insta port to the enemies flank idea seems good enough for me).

All we can do as SW players is hope that once our turn in the DPS Phase comes, we don't get shafted.
Yeah the only way to use it is pointblank to gain the defensive buffs, but it still feels bad using it in a point blank melee scenario as it feels like a wasted GCD where as if you used it as a gapcloser you'd have your GCD Back off CD by the time you reach ur target not tanking ur damage while keeping your defensive buffs.

But like you said all we have to do is wait and hope we do get some love on the spec in general for the few of us that still want to commit to playing it


PS: Give us tyrant set so aSW's can use the dual sword cape model thank u, amen
