The DH thing is kind of overrated to me personally. I made a post about this some months back asking if DH was really needed to play proficiently and most people preferred CRIT for DRK. This actually inspired me to try and do my own build and with DET>TEN>CRIT>SkS and I really enjoy it. I haven't done the math but I've seen some posts and have been told that a high DET stat isn't that much different than having a a lot of CRIT.

Decent survivorability, easy for the healer to heal and constant heavy hits due to the DET and TEN compared to having to wait for a CRIT attack to trigger...Is what it seems like at least. I'm not sure how correct this is but I like it and it's something different from the standard "go with this build or you suck" criteria.

My thing has always been that keep in mind, big numbers are always good but DRK is still a Tank not a DPS.
