Dark Knight Megathread

There's also a weird delay in Esteem's dash, and it looks like the new GCD we got only becomes available after Esteem used it. Considering we and Esteem lost plunge, and we likely lost mana gain, we're probably losing a fair bit of dps in our burst too. Also, no word on any of our mits. DT is looking kinda bad for us.

I wouldn't be too concerned about damage since that's just up to potency tuning at the end of the day, but the gameplay is yeah :<

Also, they consolidated the 123 into 1 button.
Our damage rotation outside of bursts is going to look like a healer's.
And during bursts, we'll go from 15 ogcd's to 12.

Not excited for DT tbh. We're losing more than we're gaining.
It looks incredibly boring and it looks like the goal is to remove any and all gameplay friction.
Might be time to renew my WoW sub.

And Dark Knight is still going to be very focused on double/triple weaving during said burst as well, like I expected it to... I'm just going to stick to either Gunbreaker or Paladin this expansion for tanks. As for DPS, Viper, Dragoon and Reaper look promising, with MAYBE Pictomancer, Red Mage and Dancer also looking promising but I'm not holding my breath on that...

That's not how it works.

They have to , if you want new buttons they gonna merge old button to do the same. God bless for gap closer do no dmg, high ping player will not die by server trash ticks.

Huh ?? Is this something they are really doing ??
I really hope not.

No they're not.
Core rotation is exempt from it. The consolidation option is for combo button skills like Gnashing Fang or the new Delirium combo.

So the rotation will still basically be 123 spam until its time to mash whatever button you put bloodspiller on.

Thanks.
Now to just hope that the other changes will at least influence something in anything below savage tier. (doubtful)
