Can’t wait for the gauge not mattering at all for my burst window anymore as drk. Just random bullshit go even harder, it’s just warrior with extra steps and less sustain
If I was Final Fantasy 14 game dev that actually played Dark Knight and was looking player feedback, I would delete Living Shadow and give Dark Knight a 6-7 step AoE burst combo GCD on 30 second cooldown that also has 2.00 GCD recast that also costs 3k MP and a 3-4 step single target burst combo GCD that is similar to the AOE combo but only with a 15 second cooldown being the main difference by re-working a lot of oGCDs into GCDs and giving them more additional effects that would fit the theme of Dark Knight such as buffs on Dark Knight that also apply a respective debuff on the enemy/enemies(i.e., HoT on the Dark Knight and DoT on enemies or damage dealt buff up on Dark Knight and damage dealt down debuff on enemies or even damage received down buff on Dark Knight and damage recieved up debuff on enemies), and both WOULD have the option to have the full combo consolidated into a single button OR individual buttons on the hotbar for those who want to give themselves a bit of a challenge.
