Dark Knight is playable, but BORING

[Praesul]

Chances are the people that find current DRK dull don't actually know how to play it very well and assume Edge/Flood = Mash on cooldown buttons and then do nothing until you get MP to mash it again.

I for one welcome the fact that DRK (and to an extent WAR) are resource based and don't fall into a very strict rotation cycle that No Mercy and FoF force GNB and PLD into.

For instance your opener can change quite a bit depending on what comp you have, and what you do during "downtime" (as in, what you do when delirium and blood weapon aren't available) also changes depending on what comp you have. PLD and GNB don't give a squat whether they have a MNK or BRD, they're gonna mash those No mercy and FoF buttons the moment they're available and cram every single off GCDs within that window regardless of what outside buffs they receive.

Then again there ARE people that do understand the resource management and don't really enjoy it which, fair enough.

But DRK has literally ALWAYS been about heavy resource management. That aspect has NEVER changed.
