Do your mental gymnastics if you want. This patch is just a baby systems change. It does literally nothing to address problems a multitude of other classes are having when it comes to damage. PLD/DRG patch more like and is well deserved.

Healers were lambasted.

Souleater currently is not significant to DRK's survivability because it has none. It needs it's hand to be held by a healer or a Warrior. Pretty sad for a Blue DPS.

They could have done something. Chose not to. Just like they have for 6 years. It'll be 7 years soon. Holy shit.
