    What Role Actions Are Best for DRK?

    My apologies if this has been posted some where; there's just too much to filter through.

    So topic!

    What role actions are suitable for 68+ Dark Knights?

    I currently have low blow, reprisal, provoke, anticipation, and rampart set. I'm looking to get a bit better at the job post-60.

    Thank you in advance for the help!

    provoke
    anticipation or /lowblow
    convalescence /lowblow
    reprisal

    lowblow is base on situation but most of the time you don't need it

    The dungeon crawling set I usually go with is:
    Anticipation - Decent trash pack mitigation if a bit RNG
    Provoke - Self explanatory
    Rampart - Usually a trash pack CD. You use Blackest Night for basically every tank buster
    Low Blow - DPS forgot how to stun. Stun things that are casting problematic abilities or just high damage mobs in a pack
    Convalescence - Boosts the effect of heals on you, great during trash packs.

    The Raiding set:
    Provoke - Tank Swaps, Shirkle Jerks
    Shirk - Shirkle Jerks and Tank Swaps
    Reprisal - Between you and the other tank this gives the raid a "30s CD" mitigation useful for raidwide hits (Susano's Uneki for example [unkehi?... iunno. Something like that.])
    Rampart - Mandatory. Outside of this you only have Shadow Wall and Blackest Night for busters. Feelsbadman. But we live with what we got.
    Convalescence - If you enter living dead this could be the difference between living and dying if your healers are already stressed enough to get you here in the first place (or you screwed up). Also the only way we have to mitigate fluff damage really.
