To be fair, tanks don't get "DPS rotations" either, unless you cherrypick only the simplest among the DPS for that comparison.

Every tank gets a basic rotationally built spender that consumes exactly half their maximum resource (one third for GNB, come Endwalker).

WAR, GNB, and PLD get a ~30-second alternate combo. GNB just happens to spend 4 buttons on it.

GNB also gets a 1-minute CD-but-on-the-GCD, Sonic Thrust, because that's what passes for exciting once you go Blue.

PLD also gets a further alternating filler combo and a ~1-minute alternate high-priority combo, but its primary resource spending is purely defensive.

DRK gets only a resource-gated Sonic Thrust and a 33.3% second gauge-spender meant to be banked into raid CD burst phases because, well, it's DRK.
