Dark Knight

[Hillo]

Please tell me what raid group in their right mind will take a tank into the raid that will use it's own HP to deal damage?

I'm saying DRK has been a capable "tank" in the past. HP sacrifice is secondary to this, I'm sure they can rework it in another way if they really needed to.

sacrificing it's HP is the defining motif of a dark knight.

There is generally an attack that sacrifices some HP, yes. If that aspect is kept, there will probably be a way to compensate for it. Even with that ability, Cecil could still take a hit.

yep because they typically had high def and a very large HP pool.

too many other people have only seen DRK in one game: FFXI
and due to that they think it's suppose to be a dps class with a scythe

But the typical DRK in other games was a 2h sword weilding class with high HP pool high def and decent dmg.
