How bad are the issues with DRK?

[Falgern]

Issue is moment someone cover 3 pld skills whit TBN.
u earlyer mentiond TBN replaceing loss of repaisal.
THen u mention TBN is equivilent to shildron and IB
and then u mention intervention.
Witch is it then.
Because TBN is single skill whit 15s cd. Not 3 skills whit 15s cd.

In the 3.x each tank had a defensive ability on a short cooldown with low mitigation.

Sheltron for Paladins.
Inner Beast for Warriors.
Reprisal for Dark Knights.

Reprisal suffered from requiring you to parry, as well as being the lowest in terms of tank buster mitigation due to it also being able to lower all damage rather than just the damage the tank takes.

Their way to bring dark knight up to the rest was to give them their own ~20% mitigation in form of TBN.

TBN is equal to Sheltron and Inner Beast in terms of personal mitigation.

Paladin has the choice to instead of spending 50 gauge on Sheltron they can use it on Intervention. Instead of having two different abilities Dark Knight has a single one that can be casted on yourself or an ally.

TBN is a replacement for 3.x Reprisal.
It is equal to Sheltron and Inner Beast.
It can be used on an ally to get a similar effect to that of Intervention.
