I just came back from a 3 year break and cleared most the tier in a couple days. Quit after A8S, came back for O4S, took another break and here I am. Yes, I raid and do know what I'm talking about.

..and DRK is not an undisputed tank??? It's an okay tank, yeah. TBN is great, lowest DPS but not by much, and has the worst invuln. That literally sums up DRK.

Again though... this isn't about ranking the tanks. They all got problems, and Living Dead is DRK's biggest.
Um... No only you talking about the ranking of the tank and you especially only seeing the DPS number, GNB may have better DPS but GNB is never ever a better MT than DRK and which tier are you talking about!? All past tier is worthless to be debate right now... and no you don't know enough what are you talking about because DRK IS the undisputed BEST defensive tank which make him the BEST MT.

And again i suggest you look at the certain site and i don't mean DPS number but the number of clear parse on TEA which show the power difference between job since people tend to choose the better job for ultimate, i know few WAR and GNB main who switch to DRK for ultimate. Not saying WAR and GNB is impossible to do, but DRK is just that much OP with TBN.

You need to factor overall healing requirement when discussing the best tank and not blinded by DPS, especially now since DPS difference is minor.
