Not really. It's a much bigger issue if your team has too few tanks of any kind.

DRK is not broken by itself in Frontline. If you're playing DRK and you don't have the right teammates to follow up on your personal combo, then you will be instakilled after your ten seconds are up. The most broken meta combo requires at least one competent AST who knows how to use their Macrocosmos and other abilities (AST is the primary source of damage in a classic DRK mass death situation), but there are other jobs that synergize really well like PCT (secondary AoE bind and very high AoE burst damage). Generally the "broken" DRK gameplay we all know and love comes out of premade groups who have the correct team composition and have good Frontline decision making skills.
