Introduce a new tank and make dark knight DPS again

[Luminarium]

what was the point of having a drg/nin comp if most of the monks on my server were on steroids
i honestly thought mnk was legit broken back then
i understand having the need for a drg because of the disembowel but for nin's TA, mch can easily make up for the loss
there were also fights where int downs werent that necessary. the entire midas savage raid favored str down over int down if we're talking mitigations. the only fight that i can think of that strictly required a drk was a12s

i look at the pld as if it's the easier go-to class not just for the player, but the entire party. easier to heal and has good raid utility. i often played with healers that were too scared to play with dark knights because they were "harder to sustain".
i didn't get into dark knight that much until the last set of savage floors just because of a12s

by the way, my server still favored war being the ST. idk about other worlds
so it's either drk or pld mt

drk as st is undoubtedly superior to pld in terms of dps. but if that was the case, paladins were free to clemency and divine veil whenever needed. they also can cast protect if the healers are tight on mp
oh and stoneskin
