Dark Knight

[Cynric]

Hah, dodge.

I know that seems to be a foreign concept to my melee brethren. =x! But in all seriousness for raid based stuff you usually top everyone off before and after anyway. You'd just have to learn mechanics to be able to push your damage up, just like how scholars have to learn encounters to really push mitigation xD. I do know what you're saying though. I'm just saying from a design standpoint it's very possible to make work. But that's not what we're gonna have lol, I can't wait to see if this helps duty finder times.

Samurai is DPS otherwise the JP fan base would have a fit. Again though there's been NOTHING to say SAM is coming other than that folder on Soken's desktop that could be nothing.

[Radacci]

I thought DRK would be tank, cause of odin set would fit it quite well....SAM maybe not so much.
to bad we cant glamor Odin armor, though...hope that we can upgeade it, like we can with the primal weps...so we can have ilv 150+ Odin set, for expansion. They did say that Odin would get harder to beat, over time, and drop better stuff....

[Tsunenori]

I have some tank friends who were discussing the other day about how happy they'd be if Dark Knight turned out to be a tank. I suspect I'll get some very excited messages in a few hours.

[Cyrus-Wallace]

I LOVE IT!!!!!! <3 I won't stop being a tank and I can be my favorite class. Thanks, dev. team!!!

[Gardes]

Pfft, samurai can heal. They'll be a bow using class and use "battle commander" 'tactics' and shout commands to boost morale (HP) and have war banner on their back for effects and stuff.

Now I also want that too, just because it'd be hilarious.

[Lazearus]

Haha seriously though, there could be two possibilities:

1) Samurai being the dps/healer. With the additional healer/dps (chemist/gunner), we'll get the complete holy trinity upon expansion.

2) Samurai being the tank. We'll then end up with 4 tanks, 6 dps, and 2+1 healers. It would then be more likely that we'll get another healer to end up as 4:6:4 to balance things out.

Because in XIV we can not have nice things.

[Ramath]

People get upset when MNK and DRG use Blood for Blood.... Now we're all crying that we don't have an entire DPS class based around that idea?

Am I the only one seeing the stupidity in all of this?
