The whole thing with the Armory System and how Botanists have Scythes already as an offhand kinda kills that for people. Plus in the long run the Dark Knights who do want it done traditionally and actually speak out are in the minority. And when DRK was announced and cemented as a tank class most just gave up the notion DRK or anything similar to what a DRK was would ever get in as a DPS. Right now it's just fodder to test out Parry mechanics for Samurai and was an attempt to get more players in the userbase to play a tank class. Which worked...for like 2 weeks.
