DRK at 60?

[Lee-Akira]

Agressive tank? Yes. Dealing more damage than a Warrior in both MTing or OTing situations? Hell no, not by a long shot.

Also, Darkside's damage buff with Grit toggled on equals to a total of 8% damage loss, not 5%. Don't add or take % with %.

As MTing, you cannot burn your MP with Dark Arts skills because you may run out of MP easily when you need a buffed (still pathetic) Dark Dance or "reasonable" Dark Mind protection. Not to mention Darkside keeps draining your MP and your only MP recovery is Syphon Strike on Bosses (Blood Price support is small, it's something, and it helps, but small nontheless).

As an OT, you will burn through your TP rather quickly, at about 3 mins you're already dry.

In both scenarios were a DRK and a WAR are performing the same thing, WAR will come on top and still has mitigation that rivals or is superior to DRKs.

You also get a CD skill at level 60 that gives you a good chunk of MP.
