Dark Knight class

[ClaireFury]

So who here all thinks it would be awesome to play as a dark knight class, it could be easily made now with the rouge class coming out, all you would need is a gladiator and a rouge, and it could be a new tank class, or possibly another Dps, although it would be nicer to have ad another tank

For my own knowledge (english not my 1st language) I went see more on American and English dictionary

EN : Rouge = a red or pink powder put on the cheeks to make the face look more attractive

US : Rouge = blush

IMO to make a Dark Knight Job. First we need a scythe wielding base class. I'd say the sub req either be LNC or MAR to 15. This would be a heavy armor DPS class with very high single hit damage on high delay with damage boosting skills that are also self destructive.

Atleast that's how I would implement it. Though I'd like role changing secondary soulstones like arcanist has for all the other classes currently in game. Though a couple classes I have problems finding a way to change the role but can change its play use a bit.

Marauder -> Berserker (dps)
Lancer -> Templar (tank)
Conjurer -> Geomancer (dps)
Archer -> Sniper (dps) Applies various debuffs via shots.
Thaumaturge -> Sage (healer)
Gladiator -> Fighter or Soldier (dps)
Pugilist -> Grand Master (tank)

Also I still want Fencer -> Red Mage... >.>

It could be called a Reaper class

Please, for the love of god no scythes. I cannot understand the obsession with using literally the most impractical combat weapon that has ever existed. I would gladly, however, take a dark knight class that uses spears, or lances. Hell, in Bravely Default, dark knights could use katana, maybe DRK could be a two-handed sword job?

I don't actually see DRK using a scythe though, given the fact traditionally the Job used swords or great swords throughout the series - it's use of scythes was something peculiar to FFXI only (and even then it was a later addition made as part of an update). Scythes are already used in the game as tools for BTN anyway, as they should be, given their true purpose as farming tools, so it would have to be removed from BTN to be made into a weapon, wasted resources given SE could just give DRK and it's initial class (whatever that may be), anyway.

Imo, I'm fine if they give it a greatsword and make it a DPS class. Sadly, this game is not using a dual/multi-weapon system, so we gotta pick ONE type of weapon for them.

My idea of a DK is: Active buffs that drain your HP to increase the damage (The similar way the bard's songs drain MP to buff you) or sacrificing a fixed amount of HP to deliver special attacks. Getting "Blood" stacks can also work, using certain HP draining skills, it gives you stacks like the monk's combos. Also: Debuffer. AoE damage.

All I know is they better make dark knight look evil.

That's what they are supposed to look like, not stupid, dumb or even poor looks and not so evil vibe.

I want the job be one where you struggle with the evil inside you but some how keep a good heart.

Seeing that pic...

Reaper + MAR or LNC = DRK
Reaper + THM = Warlock

Yay Magus >.>

And yeah an issue with the new job/class system is main hand determines class. However they could give drk a scythe without changing any BTN main hands as a War Scythe is actually quite different than a harvest scythe. Also there's other class/jobs people want that would use a greatsword. And Katana should really be saved for possible Samurai in the future. Also a sizeable amount of players that want drk in ffxiv do so from playing the job in ffxi where drk had A+ scythe skill rating vs Greatsword's A- rating. Scythe also made darkness chains while Greatsword made light and... um.. we want darkness and evil looking stuff :P
