Of course they will still retain their soul eater ability as a CD for high dmg burst, and Drain for life steal.
I think Dark Knight could also play as a melee counterpart to Bard as DPS/support. Rather than group buffs, though, it would focus on enemy debuffs.

The could also have an ability that converts health to TP.... or a trait that allows you to use health in place of TP when TP hits 0.
