There really isn't a whole lot to the dark knight's mp management. Darkside goes down in between trash pulls to let mana recover and during combat they can regain mana through their abilities. The mana drain is meant to enforce a rotation they intend dark knight's to do involving their mana recovery options. That being said, AoE can be problematic at times due to an already diminishing resource. With the right cooldowns its not a problem, though.
