Another Pal an War buff patch, another middle finger to Drks

m. Remember when a War Solo'd an on expac raid like a month after it's release, but sure sure they don't need to loose any self sustain, what they clearly need is more damage.

So did pld and gnb if you’re talking about asphodelos. Not sure if gnb did p2n too to be fair.

Dark knight has an extra personal mitigation, shorter short mit than the others, second shortest cd invuln, oblations, a % based party mitigation and yes, high damage benefitting greatly from downtime. It’s not in the best of places for dungeons, but don’t pretend it’s not insane in high end content or that experts are remotely challenging for a decently geared one.

It’s basically going to boil down to damage being the only metric that really matters in 2/2/4 endgame content, which is probably more an indictment of their combat design and need for jobs within a role to be fully interchangeable than anything.

Which is a problem because you spend less time in raids than you do in all other content. Sure experts are ok as Drk once you've spent a month of hard as sweaty grind to gear up but on release all other tanks breeze the content Drks sruggle. The arguement made for taking away all of the Drks self sustain was that they do the highest damage and now patch per patch they've closed the damage gap but haven't increased Drks self sustain once.

Not even asking for a huge jump, put a small self heal or barrier on our aoe rotation. Or give us back sole survivor which was taken away from us and given to reapers
