DRK is suffering from WAR success

drk just suffering from lack of vision. WAR had a clear vision from the start and instead of constantly reworking they just built upon, and tweaked things to stay within that. DRK on the other hand has about as much reworks as SMN. Idk how they did it but they made a 3-part combo in delirium feel less impactful than WAR FC spam. There's something to the direction of DRK and I don't like it. I think this perfectly summarize the duality of DRK players;

3.0-4.0 DRK = Berserk 1998
5.0-6.0 DRK = Berserk 2016

I would say DRK in DT is like berserk but they removed plunge. If only they could make enhanced unmend proc plunge so you have a damaging gap closer after using a ranged attack but sadly I don't think such a thing can be implemented in game.

Dark knight vision was so clear..
A tank that consume his own health to do damage..

I have made this point clear DRK should have the highest damage tank.. the job should be hard to master it is the opposite of paladin which should be easier to play

dmg is irrelevant because potency can always be adjusted in a hotfix. Design is something that is intrinsic and cannot be changed drastically outside of new expansions or serious player fall off in job popularity i.e. what happened to PLD in 3.0. If they cannot get design right, then they balance it with big dmg buffs so ppl can "justify" it, hence DRK and GNB.
