Dark Knight

[Sho86]

Pretty much the only Dark Knight in the series that's been weak as all hell was FFXI's Dark Knight, and that was because defense in that game didn't mean diddly squat. Warriors were squishy too in that game.

In other FFs they had good defense.

Yeah I remember Cecil/Gafgarion/FFTDarkKnights/Leon taking hits quite well compared to other job/characters. If you made them weaker defense for the sake of power, well that was your call.
