DRK .. now slightly more engaging than PLD 2.x

[AlbaTheGrey]

Words cannot describe how disappointed I am by the changes made to DRK. It is hands down the most fun I've ever had tanking in an MMO and I've been a career tank since Lineage II: Chronicle 4. That's almost 12 years! It is literally the highest praise I can give a class in an MMO. Like you OP, I'll give it a shot but if DRK is as boring as it looks like it's going to be there will be 1 less tank in Stormblood because I'm not going back to PLD or WAR.

Dark Knight was also the most fun I ever had tanking too. For the first time ever, I mained a tank.

I've tanked in every MMO I've played for queue times and therefore kept one geared even if not necessarily maining it, and DRK was definitely the most fun I'd had apart from *maybe* very brief periods of WoW Prot Warrior tanking, but that may largely just be from being severely undergeared and on a class that scaled every well with incoming damage as to make things that should be impossible merely strenuously difficult, provided enough intelligence, awareness, and speed. As far as sheerly enjoyable button flow goes, though, DRK had even that beat.
