    Incorrect since evasion applies to both physical and magical. And yes, it DOES work on tank busters. It never worked in previous coils because evasion was never a thing that anybody ever used before due to the lack of access to such an ability outside of feather foot, but nobody every bothered with feather foot since it was only a 12% chance to begin with....and Monks aren't tanks. Lastly, Dark Knight's weren't around.

    Featherfoot is good >.>. I would love to have Featherfoot on DRK.

    It would be nice to get a buff to DD though, it feels like it is not helping me not take damage. I pop DD on and I'm still taking a lot of damage ><, maybe just my luck .

    You have a better version of Featherfoot called "Dark Arts + Dark Dance."

    But you know, it's still awful because Evasion is barely a step up from parry due to RNG.

    I'm only 41 DRK, I don't have access to all these abilities everyone is referring to because everyone assumes everyone else who is wanting to play their Job better is max level >.>.

    That's because anything before 50 and 60 isn't playing the class fully and none of the pre-50 content even requires you to play your class all that well to beat, so even if you play it perfectly the benefit is marginal.

    Also if you're not max rank you can't really comment on how the class plays since you don't have all the tools the class uses.

    And evasion tanking is still awful.
