Whine hard enough and you'll be heard, ask politely and patiently you'll wait for years for absolutely nothing.

Just spam a single topic, that's it.

...duh? That's literally what's been said to get the developers attention. They pay attention to larger, single threads than how we in NA just sloppily throw out thread after thread for the same issue.

It's almost like, if the many were to *gasp* organize for a singular purpose, the many could accomplish more than they realize!

Preaching to the choir bud.

I bet if all those posts get compiled from 2 years ago we'd sit at around 100-150 pages.

100%
And what's more, if DRK doesn't feel much improved in 6.0 we need to turn the longest DRK thread into an unofficial megathread instead of knee jerk making 9 new ones.

I really like what they did with Reaper aesthetically.

I'll wait and see what they do with tanks this coming expansion. At the moment, the only thing that you give up playing a melee dps compared to a tank is the invuln-swap quicktime event that you do every so often, especially with bosses positioning themselves. In exchange you get a more involved rotation, significantly more dps, and more opportunities to have impact. It's good to know that there's a fun fallback option out there in case tanking issues continue to be ignored.

We had a DRK complaints mega thread right before/during Shadowbringers launch. It was 40 pages long, and was made by a user called Crushknight, IIRC. Then the moderators deleted it for some reason and we never had a consolidated thread again.

The only topic I ever made was one where I legitimately thought that it deserved it's own post based on the amount of work it took to objectively state that Darkside was a non-mechanic, more informational than anything else. Spreadsheets/videos/etc etc. That's why I've only ever made one thread ever. One's individual opinions are not worth anything, realistically.

Same. This is the way. I'm sure we will have a relatively easy time seeing how the tank experience will shake out once we've gotten our feet in the initial extremes on launch. Plenty of time to pivot into DPS for savage, if nothing has improved.

Either DRK gets fixed, or hopefully the DRK population crashes through the floor once people no longer have 50K HP TBNs to band-aid this trainwreck. (yes, stat squish affects enemies too I know I know)

Either way, RPR gets played by me, so it's a win/win.

So basically your suggest all DRK to go on strike ?
Let's all join a Dark Knight Union !

Dark Knights especially, but I'd honestly suggest all tanks and healers go on strike if ShB doesn't solve any of the significant gameplay issues that plague the two roles.

definitely what i'm thinking of doing myself.

For real though ? Unless this becomes a very, very big movement I doubt it'd do anything. We are more likely to be heard through forums and sharing content explaining our griefs and issues.

Well if DRK gameplay is not fixed i have plans to migrate but not to RPR, i will migrate out of the game, SHB as been a rough experience for me and not bcs im burned about the game at all but bcs im tired that the Devs take constantly away everything i used to love in this game, is not an ultimatun at all bcs i know except my friends nobody specially the dev team will care if they have 1 player less and end of the story, has been 6 wonderful years before SHB and maybe is time to move away, i hope im wrong bcs i still want FFXIV be part of my life but if they make it imposible for me i will accept it, im treally tired to fight and being ignored by them, sorry for the drama i just throw in a moment ^^.
