DRK needs re-tuning/buffing.

[Flash039]

This is exactly what I described in my post. Rampart+TBN or Shadow Wall+TBN for every Stormsplitter. Then in between Stormsplitters you have nothing but TBN, which at most mitigates two AAs.

Compare this to WAR who can just Rampart+Raw Intuition every single one and still have Thrill and Vengeance in between, or if in Defiance, Rampart+IB/Raw Intuition+IB and still have either Rampart or Raw Intuition left over. PLD can Sheltron+Rampart every one, and still have Sentinel, Bulwark, and Clemency for the damage in between.

DRK just has less mitigation options available to it. Its kit is designed around mitigating tank busters with very little to level out all of the damage in between those tank busters.

let the healer do thee job

The point isn't to let the healer do the job. You want the healer to have to work less.
