Dark Knight

The problem here is that they cannot keep adding DPS classes and leave out tanks, otherwise you're never going to find a tank in DF, so before they start plaguing the game with dps they should at least add 1 tank and 1 healer.
Or just make the DRK a tank

I totally think we need 2 new tanks and healers for each DPS added for a bit. I am leveling DPS and I see the problem. However, if you actually read the OP, this class has almost entirely been a DPS class when playable as the main PC. In one instance they were a Tank in X-2. They could make it a tank, I am not deluded enough to say its impossible, but it would be another odd-ball in its history. So we are left with what is needed, and what people who are actually FANS of the class want it to be. I honestly don't think people echoing the want and need for it to be a tank are actual fans of the class (which I could be wrong but confident in my opinion). Personally, I bought War of the Lions JUST because I got the play as a DRK in the game. In the end, I see the need personally, but as fan I hope not to end up with another summoner, a class shoe-horned to fix a need or role, rather than what it was supposed to be.
So I think people will have to look else where.
