Dark Knight Megathread

i'm gonna say this every once in a while, we need selfheals. idc how as long as we can heal ourselves. i'm not gonna shut up until they give us some d**n heals.

Why would you need heals when you could ask for more shields? If TBN was on a 10 sec recast instead it would be broken by most regards, even with the mp cost. Fact of the matter is that TBN functions under the concept that if you took 0 dmg, why do you need a heal? DRK also heals every combo rotation via souleater so to say that DRK has no access to heals is not true. Of course this is all speaking at savage, which your job is tuned to. Anything below that is not regarded, hence the fact that WAR is still great in dungeons ever since 2.0.

They had 10 years to fix how busted WAR can be in dungeons when it comes to self sustain but you know what, they only doubled down on it with nascent flash which can heal you and a party member. The only reason why they kept it is because in savage content it is comparable to DRK in most situations and neither is op. If they really wanted to fix the self sustain in dungeons for DRK they could have replaced Enhanced Unmend to Enhanced Stalwart Soul and instead of reducing plunge recast by 5 secs, it reduces the recast of AD/C&S. Problem fixed. It would work out even better now because there is rarely, if ever, a situation in savage where you want to use unmend because of uptime strats and the insanely large hitboxes.

I expect them to actually add 2 charges to TBN at some point in the future.
