Yoshi-P: "If you want more engaging content, go play Ultimate"

[AziraSyuren]

Is that why DRK players have had to ask for 6 years for a LD change and they’re only just now getting it.

Paladins and Warriors always get what they want, though, and PLD as a job only ever gets more complex and interesting with time. DRK is an unfortunate outlier but tanks are otherwise only ever treated very well, ever since Stormblood. That's like saying they never pay attention to casters since Summoner is a mess.
