I'm quite sure DRK wouldnt get a skill that convert halone, to damage...cause it's already 260 potency. They might get another skill that combos off Riot blade instead, or 2 new skills for a new combo (you know war has 3 combo finishers.)
Also, swords have same atk as spears; PLD only does less damage than DRG, because PLD get less damage/str, than DRG, so they only need to increase the amount of damage that DRK get/str. Then GLD got fight or flight also, for +30% damage.
The problem with GLD->DRK, is that GLD has to much defensive buffs, which would make a DD DRK, to OP. So it'd be better if they made LNC->DRK instead, giving it B4B, Life Surge, Dread Spike, etc. That way they could make it a parry based leech tank, that convert some of the incoming damage, to HP instead (Though that already sounds a bit like what WAR, is currently doing)
