DRK HP sacrficing

[Chiramu]

Since I've been replaying FF3 with one of my characters as DRK I was wondering if we could have a Souleater ability for our DRK tanks.
Souleater, only useable outside of Grit effect. Sacrifices HP for a huge burst of damage.
Like how WAR got Deliverance at 52, DRK could get more dps utility with more job quests.
What does everyone think? ^^ More dps utility for DRK in the future hopefully if we can get dev attention.

would need to be renamed. souleater is already a weaponskill for lvl 38.

[TessaJalloh]

We already have souleater. it just works differently.

No to the idea because we don't need tanks killing themselves for the sake of more DPS. As a healer, I'd hate any tank that'd keep eating up their HP for it.

[Chiramu]

Well, whatever it is called. Just to get some hp sacrficing abilities to get extra dps.

[Ashkendor]

Right, cause the tank with the current highest MT DPS totally needs more DPS utility.

[MilesSaintboroguh]

*Tank uses ability to eat HP for DPS*
*Tank gets hit with Vulnerability Down*
*Tank gets hit with a critical attack and dies*


Yes, this is going to work.

Right, cause the tank with the current highest MT DPS totally needs more DPS utility.

That's WAR. WAR does way more dps.

[Freyyy]

That's WAR. WAR does way more dps.

WAR has highest OT DPS only. DRK has highest MT DPS. It's a well-known fact by the high-end tanking community and that's why DRK is currently the preferred MT for Savage. DRKs already do a shitton of damage and are already gaining "power" when losing HP in some way with Blood Price, we don't need any suicide ability.

Any Dark Knight in this game that has experienced the horror of Heavenly Heel will tell you to keep that DRK tradition out of this one.
