Dark Knight and Incoming Live Letter 4.2 on 12/15/17

Lol they are going to give WAR YET ANOTHER BUFF. It's just comical at this point.

Dev team should just admit they don't care about and/or don't know what they are doing with DRK so we can move on with our lives.

Yes, I read a post elsewhere that said it sounded like they're addressing complaints about Warrior being difficult to use, so it does indeed sound like a buff. At least Black Mage was actually acknowledged; Dark Knight got nothing.

It isn't possible that Drk don't get a buff, even minimal..., look we got 0 party utility, get less defensive CD (Dark mind is only half a defensive utility due to his magical nature), our Dps is lower than the other tank in average (it's not much but still here). We have 0 DoT, 0 Counter, 0 party buff, Paladin got 2 DoT, Full option for protecting the party like cover or divine veil, and a counter with enmity increased oGCD, War got plenty of usefull buff for him self and can protect the entire party too, defensive CD with counter, and debuff.

I dont want to over react and wait to the Next live letter but im really really really tired about WAR special treathment.
if this ends being a Buff for WAR and DRK dont get nothing i Will send a rant letter to devs and for much i love DRk abandon the job.

Yeah, that makes sense, but all of it was true prior to 4.1 except for WAR having the party shield, and they still got the party shield for absolutely no reason despite already basically being the strongest tank, so we're clearly already through the looking glass.

At this point I really think that the only way dark will get buffs is if people just stop playing the job. The next balance patch is 4.4, that is another round or savage an ultimate that will have no reason for bringing Dark Knight.

The customer service in this game is terrible. My cable company isn't even as bad a square enix. Cable is out, I don't get charged for that time. Internet out I don't get charged for that time. I don't like what I'm getting, I can call someone and they respond. Months of complaints from multiple sources and they don't even mention the class? Multiple ddos making the game difficult if not impossible to play, and you are still charging me for that time? My cable company didn't drive into the telephone pole, they still take responsibility for fixing it and restoring service and still refund for the time access was down.

This is a game, it is about entertainment. People are leaving the job they enjoy and the game because of the lack balance and lack of response of the development team.

Sad part is if Drk is not touched soon till 4.4 you already know how they will handle it in 4.4 by overbuffing it like how Astro was handled in 3.4..

Not necessarily, they might just ignore it until 5.0 like paladin. Though at least paladin got attention throughout 3.x.

You may be right about the 5.0.. How will they even balance more classes when 5.0 arrives when they are having issues finding Jobs identities right now..

It just can't be that they don't get that there is something wrong with tank balance. Multiple threads on english forum and from what I've heard, it's the same in the japan forum and ultimate bahamut clears has about 3 drk's in 50 parties. It's just impossible they don't register that people are pissed about this. That would be like you don't notice that someone is punching you in the face right now.
I'm 90% that they are about fixing this and just don't tell about it (yet).

And just in case they are not...My PLD is 70, my WAR is on the way and I have more than enough tokens for a 340 or Shinryu weapon. It's your turn SE. :P
