Guess that Next Tank Job!

[Mugiawara]

We need an Evasive tank or maybe a magic tank.
We have A self-regen, def tank and DRK the Lifesteal tank?
Samurai will probably be next.

The Evasive tank is arriving in 3.0 being DK.

Dark knight was revealed to be the Parry/Evade tank by Yoshi-P when he revealed DK in 2014.

How this will work I can only guess DK may use the Power of Darkness to make him or herself harder to be seen by the enemies in his or her Tank Stance. After all part of the Power of Darkness in any basic Fantasy story is to cloud people's vision from their own actions or their own emotions like every generic "why Darkness is dangerous" statement.

Can people stop saying this already?

Give me one source where he specifically said this and I'll give you a cookie. I think you'll find out he's never said such a thing.

I still dont believe this until it's here and I see it with my own eyes. DK is never ever meant to be evasive. OK, DK got crippled anyway when they made him a Tank but in all FF-Franchises I ever played, I could immagine DK only as a "hard Def"-Tank, like sacrificing 20% of his health for +60% Defence and shit like this. But.never.ever.evasive. This is ridiculous and I wont believe it till it's here.

What the f*ck, DK an evasive tank. Name it already Samurai, because that's what it really is.

But isn't Parry a non issue for tanking in 14? Otherwise you'ld think war/nin/drg would be really good at parry for damage midigation. They tried to do that parry/evade tanking thing in XI and called it Rune Fencer. Even then they had to work very hard around the fact parry was not that good a defensive stat compared to evasion and shield block.

If anything Dark Knight will just be a Warrior with a big sword and some dark magic. Possibly more int or piety than either pld or war.
