DRK Consolidated Feedback Thread

[SyzzleSpark]

Wrong, TBN is probably the best safety net any tank has: Low cooldown, strong effect and costs next to no dps.
Unsurprisingly, DRK has been really good for progression because of TBN.

You disregarded the reasoning of my post completely so if there was any in yours, consider it disregarded in return. TBN is not a safety net, its a cooldown that we have to use a lot in order to tread water, particularly if tanking out of stance. Saying it is a safety net is like saying Sheltron or Thrill of Battle is a safety net. Inner Beast and Clemency are extra safety nets because, if you removed them, PLD and WAR would still be on par with DRK in terms of personal mitigation. I also have to admire the temerity in claiming that anything that has a chance to fail completely in being efficient from a resource standpoint is a safety net.

Also DRK was not taken in progression for this reason, it was taken due to its rotation being much less punishing than WAR's was, at the time, and due to the fact that magic TBs are once again all over savage fights. It had nothing to do with TBN at all. Not to mention at the time, TBN's net worth on your co-tank was less than half of an autoattack.
