Dark Knight

[Skyhound]

I may be crazy for saying this but I would like DRK to use a gunblade. Possibly even a class or job you get from the Garleans. I feel like that could be really cool as the gunblades we see in the game are almost greatsword length. It would make it suitably different to me.

[Warrlordd]

you are thinking of another class entirely.

i call shennanigans.

I hope DRK is a tank, personally, just because we need new tank classes to balance out the queue.

Everyone asking drk for being a tank needs to stop. It's a dpS. Last resort and soul eater = glass tank, no Ty. Ff lore still have like 2 tanks, Viking and I think berserker. Wish for those.

Thank god for reason!

There is none. No new jobs have been confirmed. People just like to talk about what they want to see. Yoshi has used Dark Knight as an example when talking about a possible second job for Gladiator, but that does not mean Dark Knight will be the second job for Gladiator or even that we'll see Dark Knight at all.

Just an FYI, if it IS the 2nd job for gladiator, then there is no chance for it being a tank IMHO, they would run on the same stat; not that was even much of a chance the DRK would be a tank as it is anyway.

A farmer who donned plate armour, everyone!

Oh go hide under a bridge and scare some goats. :P

You know, if DRK was going to be a tank, or even a question that it was not going to be a DPS, you would think they would move this thread to the general discussion forum a long time ago.

This is pure conjecture and biased. You listed 2 abilities that enhance your point and forgot about high base defenses life drains and the potential to use shields. Also scythe is still stupid.

This isn't reason. A reasonable person would be able to see the benefits to having DRK as a tank as well as a dps.

Never mind those two abilities being the classes most defining ability of the class in almost all of its incarnations. As to the wielding a shield, that varries and sometimes while it can it doesn't do it as well as others in the game.
