    DAPS is only useless if you have bad dps. Otherwise using it once in an opener can give you a very solid lead, enough to drop Grit for the entirety of some boss fights without worry of losing hate.

    DRK doesn't really have any tools that are useless.

    Dark Art'ing power slash only increases the emnity modifier by 1...so yeah for the massive amount of MP it costs... Pretty useless. Additionally a DrK should never be opening on any single target enemy becuase WAR exists... And your raid should have one.

    Nah. Because the very next thing you would do is drop grit and pop bw. MP costs on DRK are of minimal concern in your opener. If you're not burning it at least as fast as you're getting it back you could probably be doing better.

    Last i heard, its a modifier of .5, not 1.
    All the Mp should be used on C&S or SE. (as you'll need the DPS in Savage.)
    Anything you can do, to get the MP back, is more reason to put it towards DPS.

    The extra enmity u get from C&Ss base dmg in DACS is going to nearly equal any threat u add to PS. (it really adds that little)

    I would guess with GCDs DACS would be more threat than a DAPS.
