That's a horrible idea, Ren!

Tanks can't stay still. They get more AoEs thrown at them than any other role. They also have to adjust placing of enemies, run off to grab adds, DRK in particular has to aim his line AoEs by making a side step from time to time... you can dodge some attacks with breaking the line of sight / running behind the enemy...

And slow walking speed is just unfun. They even have removed it from gatherer classes.


I think DRK should get rid of all the off-GCD attacks. It's a huge and heavy sword, it should swing slowly. Instead give back Dark Arts. Let us channel the magic into the sword which then increases the potency of the next attack. Just like it was in Stormblood. Build mana, spend mana. But without cast times. Tanks need to be mobile.
