Dark Knight Megathread

To clarify, I was not suggesting that sqex ignores na/eu players that google magic their way to commenting on jp forums. Just that they only care about jp player feedback to the exclusion of everyone elses.

Oh we understand that but we also understand that Dark Knight as a whole since Heavensward is royally screwed over.

If a PLD cries they see changes, if a Warrior so much as makes a whimper things get changed, Goonbreaker sound effect complaints? Changed.

Dark Knight though? Whole lotta nada.

Overall over the years Dark Knight gave everyone everything that made DRK unique save for TBN which they pretty much gave away in EW. Only thing they really have is TBN shield breaks for a free oGCD which the other Tanks have mechanics that do not rely on shield breaks at all to pull out their stuff.

And a big dealbreaker to many DRK's is the glaring issues with Living Dead that require heavy healer comms to give the full 10+ seconds on invuln as opposed to GNB/WAR/PLD having largely maximum duration invulns(between 8s-10s) and needing very little comms with their healer of any. And a mistake of healing too late costs the DRK it's life. Meanwhile PLD can negate damage whenever also Clemency, GNB has some sustain in Aurora and Warrior has so much sustain they don't need a healer in some cases.

Dark Knight has zippity doo dah outside of Souleater and AD.

Which AD back in Stormblood was spammable for 15 seconds for mass pull god mode. And before that dodge tank status in HW with DADD+DADP. Was damn amazing. Heavensward was the shit.
