Snip.

No, no, DRK defense SUCKS! 1 Magical CD doesn't make good defense. DRK using Shadowskin + DA+DM has 44% magical reduction, which is hardly better than Sentinel but at a massive MP cost. And only for magical damage. For physical damage DRK is down to Shadowskin and Shadow Wall. The latter being a crappy version of Sentinel. DRK's Living Dead is healer's Living Hell. Even with CC from MRD and GLA, DRK is at 2 defensive CDs less than PLD.

Read my other posts that I linked and you'll understand. I'll relink: I talked about those "situational" abilities in my post here. and about defensive capabilities in this long post.

P.S. How are you not running out your daily post limit with all those posts? Aren't you worried you're spending all of them on just telling how bad Tempered Will is? lol
