Dark Mind, on the other hand, is often ignored/dismissed in these discussions. 30% Magic mitigation shouldn't just be brushed aside.
PLD and WAR bring more utility alongside their tanking. Ergo, they bring more as a tank than a DRK, so would always be preferable to a DRK currently. They all tank well. DRK however brings nothing but their tanking though. Can a DRK tank just fine? Sure, it tanks pretty well. Are there any situations where you would want a DRK over the other two? As of now. No. Unless Alexander if very strongly loaded with magic damage, which, DRK isnt that much better at. For example, while a DRK is sitting there with itis 30% magic mitigation on a minute cooldown, warrior is sitting there with inner beast which gives 20% and a always on storm path giving an additional 10% (to everyone)
