I don't know why my lodestone is behind, but DRK is a great tank, and I run without Grit often because I just don't need it unless I'm pulling big groups.

I also ran a bunch of the 50 instances through Roulette for exp while leveling and had zero problems, and honestly it felt like my PLD. Maybe you just aren't use to the DRK style?

I get zero complaints about taking to much damage, and healers spend a lot of time DPSing, never even a blip of threat issues, amazing DPS on DRK so the pace is great. All in all I'm pretty happy with it as a tank. I would like some more utility, but once I get i180 I'll level WAR/PLD as well so I can do whatever, granted after seeing the DRK DPS I don't want to switch hahaha
Wait, what? Without Grit? How the hell did you survive? I run WITH Grit on and get absolutely pummeled compared to my Warrior and Paladin.
