Dark Knight Megathread

[shao32]

They will get to DRK eventually. They had to completely redo summoner from the ground up to fix it and DRK feels like it is one of those situations, which is why I'm kind of expecting that it's going to get a revision in the upcoming expansion. They sort of did a huge class revision with Shadowbringers on all the jobs from ARR / HW, and given they were working on changing DRK probably near the end of HW all the way through Stormblood, they'd probably have to spend at least an X-Pack doing a major revision to how it works.

Please forgive me for sin of mistrust, i just look around at the current state of jobs and and what is happening right now with SAM, Healers and let's see what they are going to do with AST and DRG, i don't see any sign of that is going to happen at all.
Just by judging this expansion adjustments and additions on DRK kit just screams they don't care at all bcs adding Shadowbringer as a generic oGCD when we asked for more GCD and cohesion, the salt bubbles fror the same and Obliation as a separate skill when Dark mind need help for years ignoring what ppl wanted for the job and then they put Carve and Abyssal together in recast and how ridiculous are the new traits it's just like they waste EW on purpose to (sorry if if sounds strong) make this pile of garbage instead of you know, build on the so solid new base many has been claimed the SHB DRK was to make it unique and fun again vs "let's just do nothing meaningfull this expansion and keep them complain about the rework 2-3 years more, we think about something in 7.0" thing.

What is happening tells me this is going to be the new norm and we can't really do anything to prevent it, beliving the devs will reconsider that the current direction with the jobs it's actually wrong and is not what the game needs and what players actually want seems like exposing yourself to be complety dissapointed and betrayed from they part considering how harder they keep pushing they Direction over everything else right now no matter how much that's starting to alineate the comunity against them.

All being said please don't let my opinion about the situation mine your hopes.
