Not true. The DRK can perform just as well as a PLD or WAR. Someone made a thread recently laying out that they do have enough CDs to handle all the tank busters. The only issue is you need to have someone who knows what they're doing. You can't just pick up a random PUG and trust they'll be able to tank it like you usually can with a PLD. As I said, if you are arguing from a min-maxing approach, it can be argued that DRK doesn't bring anything, as the PLD is safer for MT and WAR is slightly better as OT. But if you have reason to think your DRK player is competent, there's no reason not to take a DRK.


EDIT: Except for at the moment they broke MP for DRK with the new hotfix.
