The Definitive Dark Knight Guide

[Zyph]

In mass pulling situations, I do suggest using Dark Arts on it for the blind and burst damage/threat. The blind on that many targets will increase your survivability far more than parrying will, and it also leaves Dark Dance up for afterwards.

Yeah, I dunno, maybe in between Blood Price cooldowns if I still have leftover MP. I kinda thrive off Blood Price though in large pulls, wouldn't want to waste it.

For Carve and Spit: Never use it for MP. Always use Dark Arts. ... It's your highest potency skill in the game, and will hit the hardest.

Gotcha. I see I was totally off base with my assumption on how to use it. I suppose that on a minute cooldown if you don't have the MP for a Dark Arts by the time it's up again then you should just go home.
