Tanks Advantage and Deficiencies

[Rover1983]

Burst AoE DPS goes to DRK very easily - as a DRK I can spam a 100-potency point-blank AoE for 15-20 seconds with just 3 mobs on me...With 4-5, I can position the mobs and swap to a 120-potency targeted aoe. With enough incoming attacks, some cooldowns, and a bit of healer coordination, A good DRK can even self-heal through the incoming damage, allowing the healer to go cleric stance and help burn down the pack.

Hah - I disagree with the a good dark can even self-heal through incoming damage. Yes we have siphons but nothing that will counter the damage we take. Not strong enough life siphons. Wish they healed for more. Right now they're negligible, especially in the higher end content. Even a DA + Abyssal doesn't do much because mobs hit harder then what we siphon
