In a vacuum the ability would seem fine. But when you take into account mechanics like the culling, heavy medal, adrenaline crates, defense and offense crates, It just seems a bit imbalanced. Not to mention that inverse HP mechanics wouldn't work well with RNG healers. You could supposedly have a very strong skill, or you could minus strike right after a panic benediction,ED,lustrate.

    It opens up a lot of options for DRK but I feel like the options it opens aren't fixing the problem DRK has. It's just giving it one more burst skill they can use once a match maybe, However with heavy medal /Culling/and crates that might be enough to make it imbalanced near the late game of an already short match length. Dark Knight has a problem in its lack of ability to harass, it lacks the ability to lockdown a target like the other two tanks have, It lacks the self sustain the over two tanks have. A skill like minus strike would just further highlight these problems while not fixing anything except making it a stronger DPS.

    DRK needs more utility not another burst OGCD.

    Minus strike would always be a coin flip skill with no real value added to the job itself except giving it a comeback ability that may or may not even work. It would suffer the same issues Walking Dead has in PVE content. Possibly very strong in a premade, absolutely terrible in RNG solo queue. Probably almost unusable sometimes and other times may win you the match.
