[Suggestion] PLDs can't do Alexander Savage due to lack of DPS capabilities

[Syzygian]

Wars don't deal crazy damage "just because". They deal crazy damage when sacrificing all of their defenses, and in most cases they can't afford to do that unless content is already way overgeared. And just as you mentioned drk isnt far ahead of pld, war isn't far ahead of drk, unless you have no slashing debuff or there's a gear discrepancy. Drk's actually do *more* damage in their tank stance than warriors.

If you've been watching progression in savage you'll see that the amount of time WAR's spend in Defiance even while actively tanking is extremely minimal. So the fact that DRK deals more damage in Grit than WAR does in Defiance is moot b/c DRK has to make much bigger sacrifices to stance dance.

Not far behind out of tank stance (not costly or difficult when blood weapon is up at least), actually ahead in tank stance, and a gap closer to help maintain dps. Drk's aren't in a bad place at all offensively, and that doesn't make anything else "moot". If there's any issue with drk atm it's that it's going to be awfully squishy if any future content doesn't have magical tank busters.
