No wonder it is least played one for the new savage (Tank breakdown for M1S: WAR 34%, GNB 27%, PLD 22%, DRK 17%).
I mean even if the dps was the same down to the last digit between the four tanks, taking damage 100% out of the equation. Why would you bother bringing drk over any of the other 3? Less party utility, less sustain, one of it's major mitigations is pointless for major chunks of a physical damage predominant encounter set up. TBN has been propping up the job since it's inception and it's getting old.
