Why I think Shadowbringers Dark Knight is not going to be fun...

[TouchandFeel]

I think hes comparing it to HW/SB Dark Knight, which you use ogcds more often and Blood Weapon has an haste effect
The video shows that you get MP slowly which wont let you use the MP spenders as often as before, and also no way to increase attack speed

I understand the comparison between HW/SB DRK and what has been projected for ShB. Nobody has denied that the APM for ShB looks to be discernibly lower than the previous incarnations. The numbers for MP regain over time have been around since the first videos about DRK changes from the media tour, so the numbers from this video should not come as a surprise to anyone.

What I was doing with my comment was providing the context that in that video all the jobs looked slow so that it is hopelly not seen and touted as solely a DRK thing by those who are overly quick to jump to conclusions.

I also provided the context that the player in the video didn't appear to be doing as much as they could which would make the job appear to play slower, and that because of such it would be best not to take it as a good model for how any of the jobs shown will play.

All I wished to do was to point out that people should be more discerning about the content they use to draw conclusions, but then again I guess what is the point? People are going to continue seeing what they want to see, hearing what they want to hear and drawing the conclusions that they want to draw, and anyone not inline with them will be browbeaten. Not saying that you are doing this, you are not, just a general comment on the current state of the discourse in the tank forums. I mean there have always been cycles of "tension" within the forums, but this recent bout sure is something else.
