DRK the least chunkiest or is it just me?

Their demand is justified. Well sure, DRK has 'enough' tools for mitigation, but it's not a 'balanced' amount of mitigation.

PLD has Sheltron very early now, even before HW content; WAR has Thrill of Battle as an allround heal(/buff), and gets Equilibrium, and Raw Intuition way before level 70; and our newcomer GNB has Heart of Stone, Heart of Light, and Camouflage on top right before 70.
DRK is the only tank before level 70 WITHOUT a short mitigation CD or even aoe raid wide ON 70!

And Dark Mind doesn't cut it. Magical only is useless when you face physical enemies. Every other tank has CDs for both kinds of damage.

This is frustrating and disheartening when you play DRK on lower levels and know you have LESS than any other job on your role.
It's destroying the (fun) experience of this job (and leveling is taking a great amount of experience of a job), and should be changed without destroying current end game balance.

And? You just said it yourself Drk has enough mitigation. Which yet again goes back to my starting question why. If not having a single button to press every 2-3 minutes is making the job not fun for you, maybe it's you and not the job. DRK has way worse problems then it's cool down's at the moment, more so given FF14's meta. The only thing that you've said that makes any sense is that Dark Mind needs to get a re-work. Which has been known by the community for a long time.


So please, tell us why DRK should get another button to press every 2-4 minutes for no reason other than just to have it, instead of asking the devs to I don't know, re-work the class so that it's not boring and has a more interesting Kit over all that pushs DRK away from being a WAR clone and why they should re-work their abilities to fit into content that is old and most can be cleared by low man groups?
