    The numbers for Shinryu are probably most telling; DRK has an 'advantage' in clear statistics for Omega since people used it for prog and many groups just stick with their prog strategy/compositions.

    Right now PLD and WAR are the #1 and #2 most popular classes for Shinryu clears, with DRK sitting at about half the clears of either, which is a pretty piss-poor showing considering that Shinryu is actually a really "good" DRK fight with plenty of opportunity to use Dark Mind.

    The numbers you're referring to, for additional impact:

    Warrior 170
    Paladin 191
    Dark Knight 87

    Christ, that is awful.

    Sorry for the double post, but I noticed the trend isn't slowing down:

    Here's Syz with the weather! -Update to the FFXIV Tank Usage forecast:

    Shinryu - 1 week:
    *****
    |Class|----------|DPS|-----|Max|----|Parses|
    Warrior---------2,837.4---3,342.6----1,104
    Paladin---------2,736.2---3,310.5----1,332
    Dark Knight----2,630.4---3,213.4----523

    Less than half the usage of WAR and just a shade over a 1/3rd the usage of PLD.
