    Any 58+ DRKs out there yet?

    Wondering about Sole Survivor and Carve and Spit.

    There was a reddit photo of Sole Survivor working on a mob, so basically when the mob died the DRK got 20% HP/MP which would be AMAZING! But the tooltip clearly says that you have to put it on a "target party member" making it far less useful, and honestly a little insulting to the member you put it on!

    Carve and Spit, just how much MP return is it? On or Off the GCD? I'm assuming the 450 with Dark Arts is the total hit, and it doesn't hit for 450 3 times cause that would be just... well... amazing! hahaha

    I only got to 50k from 55 during the weekend, Father's day and all threw a wrench in the works, and server migrations at work meant no PTO available for this week!

    I reaaaallly doubt its 450 x 3. Spirits within is something comparable (off gcd, similar cd) for a comparison. 450 off gcd would be game breaking in pvp and in a few other instances.

    Update: I checked reddit again and someone confirmed that Sole Survivor is cast on a MoB, and when they die with it on them you get 20% HP and MP!

    If this were true it would certainly explain why DRK is so squishy: they have a godly health ability near the end of leveling

    I hope that's a tooltip error rather than an in-game error.

    Carve and Spit is 884mp when used WITHOUT Dark Arts. Yes, it is just one hit in regards to your inquiry on the tooltips wording. This ability is off the GCD.

    I can also confirm that Sole Survivor is placed on a monster. When used, said ENEMY gains the debuff 'Another Victim' which lasts for 15s. If the monster dies while this debuff is on it, you regain 20% HP and MP.
    Sole Survivor is, as of right now, a MAJOR tooltip error if it is indeed working as intended, which is likely the case.

    Wow.. Carve and Spit is off GCD.. That is AMAZING! The 60s CD hurts, but I'm pretty stoked now! Thanks Talon! That's also a solid MP swing too

    I can confirm this as well from a level 59 DRK in my FC
