Working extremely well in raids and working extremely well in everything else are two very different things. Is DRK good for raids? Of course. The numbers show us very clearly that it is a top performing job, both in terms of damage and in mitigation. But uh.. y'know what? There are other forms of content, and playing DRK outside of a very structured environment is a lot like getting a root canal without anesthetic. You'll die more to glare mages than anything else by a wide margin. That aside, it just feels terrible to play. It's like a Walmart brand WAR with some extra peripherals you bought at K-Mart tacked on for good measure.

Oh, and LD is still a suicide button outside of pre-planned use.
