Dark Knight DD or Tank

[KoujiGeki]

This is how dark knight should feel.

I would hope DRK DD, too. I will definitely level it, whenever they introduce it, still to this day regret not doing so in FFXI.

There is also Dark Knight from Tatics.

Pretty much all the Dark Knights but FFXI used a sword type (one or two handed) even in FFXI there are swords but they also added scythes.

They were all DD - not bad HP because they used it as one of their casting resources but their defense wasn't great.

In Tatics you could have a .01 percent chance to be hit. Then again an emeny could hit you, but with a 99% chance you'll miss them. So it's messed up anyway, dark knights could use sword to greatswords in tatics and use a shield. They could equip Eschteon, I know it's spelled wrong sorry.

Dark Knights should be both a DD/Tank if they wanted to be.

Paladin more defenseive tank better for adds, Dark Knights would be the more DDing better for main tanking, and warrior would be well-rounded so good for both situations but not as good as eith Pld or drk.

That's how I would make my tanks.

It's kinda of... hypocritical... people wanted white mage to not only be healers, but damage dealers too. Which is why the wheel was split, which is still a dumb idea. Yet when it comes to different plays styles people want dark knight to be DD only? So all that heavy armor and the greatsword is for show? More armor than a paladin, and a warrior put together yet can't take a hit?

We already have a tank that does decent damage in warrior. I think having a tank with high damage would not be balanced and would make the warrior obsolete.

Damage dealers can be more specialized than tanks, by that I mean armor class, weapon choices, spells etc,. etc. There has to be some trade off to even things out, though.
