    The thing tthay strikes me as strange about DM complaints is that drk is the least focused on magic defense as it has ever been. Every self mitigation tool it has in shadowbringers mitigates any damage, except DM. And that was reduced to a less inportant CD (20% and matches the 20% of other tanks). So they have made magic damage even less important part of their kit. The claims of SE trying to shoehorn drk as the magic tank seem a little disingenuous when drk has been reducing its focus on magic defense in favor of all defense every expac. 3.0 had DM. Did not have TBN. Wall was 3 min. 4.0 tbn added for all damage. Wall reduced to 2 min. Tbn duration buffed. 5.0 tbn mega buffed. DM nerfed. Drks focus on magic for survival has been drastically reduced in favor of wall and tbn buffs. Isnt that what people want(those that complain about the magic tank).

    For the other common argument is that it isnt as good as tob. That 8s a debatable point as tob has a 50% longer CD. Would you be fine wity upping the recast from60sec to 90 sec to get that physical mitigation? I see lots of posts saying it needs to cover phy damage. I dont see any mentioning an increase in CD to conpensate. Which is the point. It has a tradeoff for that 1 dimensial mitigation and that is absurdly high frequency and uptime. Are you willing to give up the good parts of the skill to change the negative downside? Otherwise youre just asking for rampart on a 60 sec timer.

    Sure, why not? Use it more frenquently when its use isnt a gamble, seems like a fair trade to me.

    or how about 10% and the added effect of blood price, if were going the full ToB route. Forget the extra healing were a magic tank nao.
