Dark Knight Megathread

[shao32]

Here are my wishes fix for the new year:

- Rework delirium, im tired of spam bloodspiller the same way WAR spam fell cleave, no more clone mechanics on the job.
- Fix Blood weapon, make it true 10s of duration or just make it 5 stacks to make his execution less problematic, would love if the recast is halved to 30s too.
- Rework the whole Darkside structure, stop making it a buff that keep himself, make his Gauge something usefull we have to pay attention and not something pretty but useless on our screen.
- Sinergy betwen our skills, make our skills feel conected somehow like only MP skills build Blood and blood skills grant extra MP or Allow the use of new weaponskills that grant more MP.
- Re-purpose living shadow, make it grant a 3-5% extra damage to all our weaponskills or upgrade our weapon skills so we execute an special combo or something that make his duration feel more than being damage over time without any interaction with and by result make his representation on the Darkside gauge being usefull.
- Re-estructure the skills learning order so DRK learn early a usefull defensive buff before lvl 70 and make it better at those levels, make it learn stalwart soul way more early so we don't spend 72 levels spaming unleash at the same bring Dark missionary early like the rest of the tanks.
- Do something to Dark mind, the skill is really useless in practically most of the content, make it evolve to obliation or grant it a healing effect, just anything neutrat so we can use it more.
- Do something to the downtime of the job, is the worst gameplay experience of the game and is basiaclly the phase where DRK spend most of the time, doing only souleater combo for 45s is not fun.
- Do something with salted earth, his execution is worse and more limited.
- Rework Livind dead or grant tools to dealt with walking dead by ourself once for all please.
- More weaponskills, make Shadowbringer a weaponskill or bring back older ones, scourge, Power slash, anything that breack the enless souleater spam boredorm.
- Make all oGCD being part or contribute on something, make them being a proc of something or add effects that make them be more that simple skills that offers nothing but low/flat damage (Plunge, Carve and spit, Abyssal drain, salted earth, shadowbringer).
- Delete plunge and Living shadow's traits and make new ones that actually offer something more than just numbers up or extremly niche and useless effects, add true gameplay effects.
- Make TBN 100% grant Dark arts when the shield is consume by time or by breaking it and add a new defensive effect like a regen if the shield is succesfully breaked.
- And the most important one, have some real direction on the job, make it have unique gameplay mechanics, stop leaving it with just a combo and a bunch of fluff oGCD and a buff that keep hilmself, make his gauge mean something, make his skills feel conected make the job evolve with each expansion like BLM, DRG, PLD, RDM, ect, ect, make DRK tecnical and unique again.

I really will apreciate if DRK is rewoked and fixes all this points, happy new year all, for a better DRK for all.
