    No, lol. DRK and WAR aren't even close to equal footing.

    WAR: Never runs out of TP
    DRK: Runs out right away in Grit, somewhat slower out

    WAR: OT DPS is always that high
    DRK: Needs to get hit for MP and procs

    WAR: IB works for Magic and Physical
    DRK: DM magic only

    WAR: 3-4 IB a minute+half a Thrill
    DRK: 1 DM and 2/3 of a Shadowskin a minute

    WAR: 30% DMG cooldown every 2 minutes+20% of a full stack of Wrath
    DRK: 30% DMG cooldown every 3 minutes

    WAR: 100% parry rate every 90s+20% of a full stack of Wrath
    DRK: +30% parry rate every minute

    WAR: Wrath grants passive parry buff
    DRK: No passive mitigation

    WAR: Slashing debuff and damage down debuff on demand on up to 3 targets.
    DRK: Damage down on parry proc for one target only

    WAR: Burst self-healing on demand+weak self-heal tied to combo
    DRK: Self-heal tied to combo only

    True, WAR loses IB if they turn off the tank stance, but if they need it they can switch in off GCD smoothly so it doesn't actually prevent them from using their DPS stance.

    DRK is helped by the current content, but looking that their abilities, WAR is excellent in a much, much broader range of content than DRK is.
