because when a noc ast has a drk in his party he could think the same: he has his own shield, why should i spend ressources on him? it's a 20% shield (based on your max HP) with only a 15 sec cooldown, so you can use it on yourself basically for (likely) every single tank buster the boss throws at you. one ss in grit gives you enough mana to activate it. that means you trade one dark arts for a shield, but the shield can give you 50 blood, so it's not even a real dps loss.
