Dark Knight Megathread

Just bring back Dark Arts that costs Darkside time and turns our 1-2-3 combo into a new combo. Make it work like an inverse Continuation that you have you cast it before each global to turn it unto a high potency combo. But unlike continuation, you can use this anytime you can spare the Darkside timer. Doesn't solve the double weave bloat, but it's still good.

no more deleted animations please, Power Slash, Scourge, Shadowskin, and Dark Arts never deserved this.

I agree. It's ironic they removed the most iconic animations from the job. You never got tired from seeing them. All they kept pales in comparison to what we had. Especially the Souleater 1-2-3 combo. I don't get why you would even do this to be perfectly honest.

Also, don't forget Dark Passenger. FoS has nothing on that.

Yeah I do think flood and edge are super lazy design wise but I did say also the same about inner chaos and chaos cyclone being inner beast and steel cyclone just in red. I mean for flood and edge they actually copy pasted cecils dark knight attacks from dissidia nt for it,The same way they did it for kefka. It’s just sad how they did it.

Should change Dark Mind to 10% magic and 10% physical mitigation. Oblation should heal you for 20% of your maximum hp over the duration to give DRK some kind of sustain outside of souleater spam.

As for BW and LD. I dont expect any changes.

[Tsiron]

At this point just scrap DRK and start over, tbh...

[Cithaerias_pyropina]

Make Living Dead give you 90% damage reduction for 10 seconds and every time you're hit you gain 1 stack of 30% lifesteal. Oh wait, that'd make DRK's big tank CD look better than Warrior's immense self-healing kit + Holmgang. And you know by now you can't make Warrior look bad.

[Tribezer0]

I was very disappointed with the DRK job actions reveal. What do the tanks get for their level 90 skills? Gunbreaker gets a two cartridge AoE. Warriors get the spin dash. Paladins get Confiteor IV. Dark Knights? They get a buffed Flood of Shadow. What? Why? Seeing the treatment that DRK gets compared to the other tanks is just very sad and I throw myself fully behind support for a DRK rework.

Pretty sure we just got Dark Passenger back with a few tweeks to make us think its something new...

[Rayplicant]

Make living dead have a 1 second cool down and change its effect to instantly kill the dark knight granting immunity to resurrection/raise cast on the dark knight for 60 minutes.

I think this would be more in line with your current vision for the job.

Thank you!

There is absolutely no way they would take away some of our best looking spells (animations and visual effect wise) just to give us a new version later.

It's like those people saying that they constantly give our mechanics and gameplay abilities to other classes, preposterous!

And even then, why even care about kit interaction, skill syngergy, class identity and good gameplay when you have shiny visuals and great story for this class.

Now if you'll excuse me i need to repair my sarcasm detector which is now burning.
Again.

It needs to wipe the entire party instead of just the DRK player.
Then we can really be DARK knights.
