Dark Knight Megathread

Tentatively agreed. It's worth noting though that in the past every MP expenditure had a tanking benefit outside of Carve and Spit (which was a mere margining mechanic). DA-Souleater meant more self-healing, too; DA-Power Slash gave a metric ton of threat; DA-Dark Passenger also added a blind for mitigation; DA-AD was the only way to get it to do any healing; and all else were buffs to your next defensive among Dark Mind or Dark Dance. In that sense, the MP generation on Blood Weapon was almost always also a means of sustain; it was just perhaps out of balance, overly favoring only DA-CnS, -SE, and -AD for AoE sustain.

Stop please, my heart can't take being reminded of HW DRK and the identity they stole from us...

Sorry, mate, but it was the obvious example of where/when it made more sense for Blood Weapon to, for sustain-purposes, give MP over HP. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
