I love DRK! <3 :D ^_^!

As someone who primarily played PLD and WAR in 2.0 all the way through this expansion, it's nice to play as a middle ground tank. From my experiences playing as DRK, from exping to, to farming Ravana EX, I can dps effectively, but not as hard as Warrior, and my defense and cool downs are reliable, just not as reliable as PLD. I find this appealing honestly. Great at both concepts, best at none. The right player can make DRK a great addition to the squad.

I have though been reading what you all have been posting about DRK changes and wouldn't mind seeing some effective changes in the future. I don't however see much love for DRK so gdi let's show the class some love xD!! <3

Haha, hi Izzy! I agree on all your points. I got Dark Knight to 60 finally last night, and it's been quite the learning curve. It has some areas of improvement, but its current niche is rather nice. There could be some changes with party synergy and some other things, but really, now that I'm getting used to using dark arts, it's gone from stressful to super fun.
Scourge and Salted Earth being easy to set up, as well as not having to use Maim constantly makes it more fun to me to play than Warrior by a bit. And more fun than Paladin by a longshot. I really appreciate all its fun off GCDs and thinking of when best to use them, which neither other tank can say.
