Is a post i made about DRK and what we can do in abyssea.

I think the first tip and best tip is if ya focus on WS DMG or DMG in general it gonna end up losing not to say you can't pump out lots of DMG LR + haste + Crit setup is a insane thing

What i suggest is subbing MNK

DRK/MNK with a WHM is a really solid combo i mean to the point i'm a main tank for ls events or job that can split of the group and duo NMs for pop item/KIs to speed stuff up.

Either way as Atmas go you use Razed ruin/S.Scythe/Gnarled Horn
or swap Gnarled horn with VV depending on Difficulty of the mobs your tanking.

Anyway as far as i'm concerned DRKs that sub MNK in abyssea are an asset if geared correctly (DMG-% gear/HP gear) (we acully ask DRKs to sub MNK over /SAM now in my linkshell after seeing results lol /SAM is just a stagger job /MNK is a stagger job that is also one of the best tank in abyssea)

Using DRK/MNK you can kill/tank most NMs in abyssea with a few exceptions which is usually more to do with stuff that makes any tank struggle to tank it.

and in low main DRK/MNK + WHM is amazing for Red !! KI farming ^^ and great for yellow staggers on light/darks day (or just get a BLM in there)

If u get an emperyan /MNK all u do is get 300% TP for lvl 3 aftermath then pop LR + SE resort with haste on and u'll see 800-1000 crits (no ODD) 1300-1600 (ODD proc 50%) with counters in the 800 range ^^ (on harder stuff the numbers are 100-200 lower but you still wreck stuff this way ^^)
