I think that DRK is a case of the team ran out of ideas. Their active mitigation abilities are rather bland flat percentage mitigation. They have a good bit of self healing, despite 2.0 warrior being garbage because self healing is the worst form of tanking mitigation (why they went back to it, we'll never know). They have lots of ogcd buttons to press, yes, but a lot of these skills dont do much or rely on dumb mechanics ( dark messenger, parry proc, etc...).

DRK needs a lot of work to be a well put together credit to the team. As of now they certainly aren't bad, but they are the worst tank due to a case of having lots of little issues that amount to a big one.
