    Which every other tank can. You just set it at the start of a fight and never have to think about it.


    Having to push a button after means nothing, unless it's "within half a second" which is undo able with the games ping, because otherwise, there is no drawback. Long CD doesn't matter.
    There is a lot of thinking and complexities involved in this approach. A healer could waste damage and GCDs healing up the DRK when they dont need to because they don't know how the job works. A newbie DRK may just heal back immediately and waste the optimization power of waiting to the last minute and negate 2 or 3 autos and an overly greedy one may die waiting to the last microsecond so you can mess up the timing and accidentally die. The healers failing to keep the DRK from triggering their invuln will also introduce complications in hard fights because they are usually preplanned, and losing it will cause the party to adjust to it on the fly, something that already happens when tanks make a call they needed that invuln sooner than intended.

    So there is a lot of nuance, way more than PLD having a "Press this button to become immortal with no consequence for 10 seconds"

    So even with these changes the PLD inlvun leaves less room for error than the DRK would have. So I don't see it as overpowered personally.
