    The problem is, Warrior and Paladin simply beat Drk in self healing.

    Those 1200 Potency heals alone set then leagues apart in self healing, and Drk doesn't have one. 100% Souleater return isn't that good either, it's like relying on Inner Beast for it's HP return and not it's mitigation. Ontop of that, you only get that return while in Grit, meaning no matter what 20% of your damage when self healing is gone, and to self heal to begin with, you have to do a bunch of combos with Grit up. I knew this would be a problem the instant I noticed Drk has no version of those heals at all. It puts them in 3rd when it comes to survivability in soloing old content.

    War can hop into Defiance, Equilibrium, easily crit heal themselves for 10k+, then 10 seconds later back into Deliverance doing more damage than a Drk can do as well.
    Paladin just needs to not get interrupted when casting Clemency, and they're fine. Sheltron and Riot blade will take care of their MP.

    Edit: Gave it a try, and what it comes down to really, I cant manage to balance self healing, and enough offense to down the nails. Either I have to keep Grit on to fight against the constant HP decay from his attacks, the breath of which hits for a constant 1.5k, or I die quickly while trying to use Blood Weapon outside of Grit. Just cant keep myself alive while trying to do enough damage at the same time, even in full slaying.
