Not finding DRK squishy at all.

Yea, not squishy at all. Having been lvl 60 for a couple days myself, the mitigation is pretty nice. I'm not sure if the people complaining are not properly rotating their defensive cooldowns, or have forgot to enable grit.

I myself am all in STR acc, with str stat distribution (sitting at about 840 out side of pt, 865 in pt). I'm between about 13-14k with food, and I've seen no issues with being MT. Since all of DRK skills scale off of attack power, this makes alot of abilities shine. I'm currently working on upgrading my right side, and then I'll test how it works on the ex primals.

Though, from what I seen; long as you have a competent healer and you rotate cooldowns (hitting retaliation every time its up) there's not much of an issue with mitigation. If you are locking down hate properly at the start of a boss fight, you should be able to essentially spam dark arts+ souleater till the boss goes down. (delirium when mp is low). If people are having an issue with this, you may want to look at your opening rotation for pulling.

In large packs of trash, blood price + dark arts + abyssal drain works wonders. I'm also curious what people are using for cross class skills. I'm personally running: Convalescence, Foresight, Bloodbath, fracture, and provoke. I enjoy using fracture/scourge esp with blood weapon when OT.

The question is, are you not taking much damage in comparison to the other two tanks.
