PLD synergy issues

[ADVSS]

So let me get this straight everyone is fine with how DRK is designed?
Skills.
Cooldown skills?
Role in a raid/dungeon?
General understanding of the classes playstyle?

I hear more and more people saying they like the idea/playstyle of DRK. But PLD still seems to get the short end of the stick

nah i got gripes with drk lack of utility as well but this topic is about pld so i tried to stick to it,
i do prefer to tank as drk over the other two, but i could see myself going back to paladin if they tune it right for SB while ignoring drk few quirks

What PLD really needs, imo, is an aoe enmity ability that does damage besides CoS. Hell, make Flash deal unaspected damage like Unleash and at least some of the tanking community would be slightly happier with it.

At the very basic I agree with this, not so sure about the other ideas, though it wouldnt personally bother me. Since rampart is getting uprooted from pld, somehow, i feel like vengeance which really fits drk to me, should also be put in a cross role list. ToB? meh, but i guess it has its purpose, for self healing-sorta, which sustainability on all the tanks could afford to be raised a little more than it currently is imo. How much? i couldnt give statitistics, just that it could be higher. DRK giving up DM is fine by me, as long as they get a new lifetap or something fitting such as curse - reduce targets magic resistance, or aspir - because holy exists
