GNB has HoS and Camouflage, WAR RawI/Nascent Flash and ToB, PLD Sheltron and passive block, and every single one of them is FREE. DRK Dark Mind is NOT fluff mitigation, and every other CD has a long recast or role action, and doesn't do any better than other tanks mitigation tools.

DRK got the short end in terms of fluff mitigation... (and unfortunately DPS again, too.)
DPS difference between tanks is around 5%. It's so small it's not really a consideration to take into effect.

TBN is a unique skill, that makes DRK incredibly strong as an MT. Can we not advocate for homogenising jobs even more than they already are, just because people don't understand how to use their toolkit correctly.
