Dark Knight

No saltiness here. I expected a DPS DRK, Got a tank. Maybe our Tank will find a new class they enjoy in DRK. I'm going to level it all the same. I don't really know how it's going to work but I can take a guess that it'll be another shot at a life drain tank.

i know when this is realeased. i probely maining as tank i told myself if we got a 2handed sword tank i would start tanking ;p

I'm honestly a little surprised but hey you win some you lose some. I just hope they balance it properly and i'll be happy. More slashing damage tank though... I don't really know how I feel about that. Guess it doesn't really matter. But I'd like to see a tank that benefits from Blunt or piercing.

Blunt - MNK
Piercing - DRG/BRD
Slashing - PLD/WAR/DRK/NIN

Ninja could very well be piercing damage, for the sake of balance.

no, they already posted rogue/nin skills, and rogue has a skill that reduce slash resist (doesn't stack with the one warrior has)

Blunt - Mace Tank?
Piercing - Rapier Tank?

Blunt - Mace Tank?
Piercing - Rapier Tank?

Blunt could honestly have a lot of things that fall into it but I was thinking more like... A hammer or mallet, club, but yes a mace could work as well. Something big and brutish

You've got me on piercing. Rapier would seem like it could function as a parry/evasion tank, and such.

I'm definitely open for ideas. I just see lot's of possibility for different team composition and synergy with the way this game works and I would like to see more of those options explored.

i think thats kinda not even worth saying the only way a samurai can heal is with potions never ever gets a healing trait i can pretty much bet it will be another tank ~_~ idk why ppl jumping to that sure drk was a dps normally but lets face it it wears heavy armor check it can get people to hate it(monsters in this case) that pretty much makes it a tank tbh dragoon rlly should be a tank 2 wears plate armor and all the only thing making it not a tank is it cant gather groups and keep em on it

Actually, in Tactics it had abilities to heal, cast protect/shell, and cast regen/haste.

Of course, it was also a Magic-based DD. >_>
