Dark Knight: 5.0x Feedback Thread

1. Lower the cost of the TBN to like half of a Edge / Flood of Shadow and extend the duration of the shield by like 3 seconds. This will be a small reward for people playing the class right as then you will then be in a DPS gained situation as a reward for having the shield burst and mitigating damage, and bring back some of the "Hit me and I hit you back" game play.
2. Lower the Recast time of Abyssal Drain to like 30-45 seconds.
3. Allow for the second hit on our AoE combo to restore a small amount of HP per hit.
4. Get rid of the nerf to Dark Mind, maybe up it's mitigation due to it only stopping Magic Damage. I think the same should be done with RI on warrior. Or make it so that they both just block both damage types.
5. Raise Dark Missonary's aoe magic reduction up to 20%. No reason why it should be lower than PLD's passage of arms.

1. That would remove any risk to arguably the most powerful mitigation/sustain-over-time CD in the game outside of Nascent Flash-Chaotic Cyclone-Chaotic Cyclone-Decimate-Decimate on trash.
2. That's fine, actually.
3. Why? You just gave that over to Abyssal Drain, and Stalwart Soul is already powerful enough to make Quietus painfully situational in trash where you can make use of TBN on CD.
4. RI blocks all damage. Camouflage is the only other typal mitigation, via parry, but even it has a universal mitigation component to an average total of 15% mitigation. RI, like Shelltron, are also not equivalents to DM. Their slot equivalents are effectively Thrill of Battle on Warrior and non-existent (replaced by base block chance) on Paladin.
5. Passage of Arms is a longer CD which costs the PLD its movement, any further mitigation opportunities, and its uptime -- in many ways the most punishing CD in the game if used outside of jump phases, especially given that the buff can still be slow to apply to higher-latency party members, making it difficult to reliably weave. There is absolutely no way DRK should have something stronger than that, "anti-magic" tank or no.
