Dark Knight: Still Searching for Your True Identity

[Shurrikhan]

Actually Warrior already has it in Infuriate.

Which Dark Arts is a MP costing Infuriate on a 5 second recast that enhances certain actions that can be considered on par or related to IB/FC and Cyclone/Decimate.

So basically not original at all. DRK clearly isn't a DRK unless you consider a mish mash of PLD and WAR a DRK then fine. Until then it gets the moniker of Magic Fencer or Mystic Knight. Fancy effects and a hybrid kit of PLD/WAR does not make a new tank class.

Infuriate isn't an additional effect unlocker. It's a weaponskill-unlock, with an attached passive boost. If not already capped. Now, if the DA-variants were a separate skills that consumed all or nearly all of your mana, and Dark Arts skipped the process of building that mana back, then those DA and Inf would be basically the same thing. But it doesn't. And they aren't. Combos themselves are the closer example of what DA does. Except this is a second layer, and it's paid for with mana, rather than sequenced GCDs. It might not be exciting, but it is technically original.

I'll agree though that DRK is mostly a Mystic Knight. Though that works for me.
