-Make Piercing Talon a 400 potency GCD that doesn't interrupt combos.
Similar to Monk's Six Sided Star for Monk, Dragoons can use it when out of range to keep up damage without worrying about their combo being interrupted.
-Make it a low level oGCD that later gets upgraded to Geirskogul at level 60
Lancers lost their Lv10 oGCD "Leg Sweep" (130 potency+stun) in 4.0 thus have no oGCD options until level 30 DRG when they can use Jump. By making Piercing Talon a ranged oGCD attack, low level Lancers have a damage button to weave between combos. This skill would be replaced by Geiskogul at level 60 with a trait (and then conditionally upgraded to Nastrond with the level 70 trait as usual).
-Remove it all together.
-Jobs have a limited number of actions and since Piercing Talon is an action that gets very little if any use in content, it's prime candidate for removal and replacement with a new ability in 6.0
