    I started playing like 2 months ago and I leveled from 1-50 as PLD then picked up DRK and I gotta be honest, looking back at it, if it wasn't for the compelling story, I have no idea how I would have stuck with DRK, it lacks so many important spells for so damn long... I can't bring myself to do synched content on my DRK anymore because of that.

    you have no idea how MUCH this would improve DRK.
    make it the SAME potency as Flood. but cost 500 more MP. (so a DPS loss) Now when your shield breaks, the free cast makes it slightly better than flood.
    With this mindset, id like to see a single target version, so you can use it on bosses. (also good for LD)

    Also feel the pet is too limited as well. Only thing I was thinking, was to have sole survivor back, but if you use it on your pet/self, it triggers when the pet goes away. but this is extremely unreliable for stuff, much less LD.

    I'll still be playing DRK in EW as with the other tanks, but I do wish that DRK was shown a bit more love like the other tanks did; however, if I could ask for a few changes, it would to be have Blood Weapon set to 5 stacks, rather than what it is now, and to get Stalwart Soul earlier along with Unleash being tied to SkS and not Spell Speed, but whatever, I suppose.

    The Unmend trait (upgrade) passive that they get in EW is....um, yeah, I do not know what to say, but "why" in regards to what they could have put there instead.

    Living Dead is a topic I won't even touch, but considering all the self-sustain the other tanks will be getting compared to DRK in EW, it is sad to say the least that they are not getting anything added to LD to at least compensate. Due note I do not know the full history of DRK as I originally started the game back during 4.0, so my knowledge is limited.

    It's really laughable that they put Stalwart Soul at level 72 and thought that was okay.
    Spamming that one AOE gives me healer ptsd.
    You do have a point, some classes get secondary skills at a laughably high level when it could comparably be at a lower level to help with learning rotation/timings. We have yet to see how the new xpac will fully change each job, as the media tour footage is subject to change. I think with every new xpac the dev team has tried to optimize the classes that have these redundancies or odd level sets and tried to rebalance them as appropriately as possible. I am hoping with this xpac that maybe they take out some of those level 72 final aoe skills and put in more diverse/useful skills, or switch around the learn levels for the more impactful skills.

    So true. I've recently switched to GNB and during leveling roulette got the dreaded Aurum Vale with a couple of leveling sprouts and one of them was the healer. However, I had 3 job-specific mitigation skills plus my full AoE rotation. I won't say it was a breeze, but we managed to make it though with just a couple of wipes (man I hate that first room).

    Thinking of how that run would've gone on my DRK reminds my why I switched...

    Hmm reality is there is legit only 3 problems with dark knight

    Blood weapon needs to be 5 charges so players can get 3k MP back anyway and 50 blood gauge....simple fix

    Unleash and stalward soul needs to be changes to a physical skill instead of magic, or the best way to fix this problem for legit everyone in game would to .....drum roll...... Turn skill/spell speed into 1 stat called haste...problem solved

    I see alot of dark knights complaint about TBN that it "costs" a damage resource, but totally "neglect" it gives u a "free" flood of shadow anyway if it breaks, so an easy fix would be....dark knight now auto gain the "free flood proc" once applying tbn to yourself or to an ally


    Other then these dark knight is fine ...I do NOT want old dark arts to return, even know I am a healer main, I am sooo bored seeing dork knights everywhere so I'm kinda looking forward to see more warriors around or paladins

    And for those who are pushing for a rework, just stop....dark is more of an OGCD tank compare to the other tanks, and please stop pushing for dark to become the old dark knight days...majority of the player base does NOT want that playstyle back

    That's all you have to say.

    NO! Because then you'll have them spamming it each time it's on cooldown. No thanks.

    There's a lot more issues to DRK than you think. Since you main healer, you don't know what you're talking about.

    Like someone said before there are lot of issues with the current drk. Truth be told, i feel like you are just pick and choosing what to read. First off the tbn you mentioned. It does not have to take resource it can be equivalent to a heal. Take a look at the pvp version of the skill. And dont say that cant do that, look at gnb that one combo that took space on your hot bar is now one button.

    Question why is stalward soul is 72 while as the others 40? Mind you gnb was the new tank in sb and they had access to it right off the gate?


    IMO drk needs a rework, it need to have things to set it self apart from the other tanks in this game. all it got is a shield that is good yes but a lot of people are over hyping this so much. Great you got a shield but now you have no other way to heal your self outside of ad thats sits on a minute and tbn takes 15s just to reuse

    for a year, would you rather be secretly filmed at random moments and have the footage uploaded to your social media or loose $100 when ever you said a curse word?

    It can be as simple as a meme; all jobs leveled but DRK sits either at 0 or 80. They're going to fix it eventually. By the time they do it however I think most people have moved on.
    Forum is a minority. It literally won't matter. DRK is screwed. They will gravitate to other Tanks with a better kit or move to Reaper that has everything traditional Dark Knights in Final Fantasy fans have wanted for a long time. Especially with the FF XI iteration of Dark Knight.
