Thread: Patch 3.05 up... NO DRK rework!

Yeah two months of complete hell. Unless Alex Sav has some nasty magic attacking mobs / bosses then Drk is a bench warmer class. Much like Warrior 2.0 was, not quite as bad but in the current state of where both tanks just outshine Drk, so yeah its just like 2.0 lol.

Did they mention the Darkside flames?

Good luck getting there, as floors 1-3 are quite Phy heavy. So yeah Drk gets one floor, but you better be geared. To get this gear you need to clear other floors, if your lucky enough to have a group suffer a gimp tank to that point. Kudos to that squad!

They could always have you run as an off tank for those floors... I mean, as a joke or something. Or you could just level a good tank.

I've not leveled it yet but I read fast 4-man runs is DRKs (disappointing) current "specialization". AoE damage, AoE threat gen, AoE lifesteal, parry and evasion not being terrible on large groups of mobs, supposedly makes it pretty good.

I hope you realize we are talking about Savage not normal right?
