Dark Mind should just straight up do something different, maybe a barrier that trait upgrades into TBN or something so DRK can't be polarized based on if the devs decided to make a TB magic.

AoE barrier utility for Dark Missionary is already taken by other tanks so what if it was actually a party-based personal damage boost like Meditative Brotherhood (Monk gains chakra when allies use GCDs) and instead defensively DRK got a shorter CD on Reprisal for raidwides (they actually invented it)
Yeah, I'm much less inspired for what exactly to do with those two, so I tried to go with something other tanks (to my knowledge?) don't have - mit buff that translates to Take Damage->Trigger small potency instantaneous heal. Not a regen, not a shield etc. I don't think anyone has something like that? This way, the % mitigation could potentially justify staying magic only and would shine more in cases where magic damage was happening while making these abilities at least not complete wastes in every other scenario. Maybe I wasn't super clear on that, but I wasn't trying to add an AoE barrier utility to step on PLD's toes.

Not entirely against a party-based dmg boost though. It would certainly be the first tank to have something like that. I think the only concern I'd have with compensation the lack of party-wide mit in that case with a lower CD on reprisal would be that you could still have reprisal overwrite from other tanks, so maybe it could get a reprisal-but-not? (lol)
Or maybe oblation could turn into a -10% damage done debuff to the boss instead of a targeted buff in this circumstance? Not sure, but definitely love the discussion and additional suggestions!
