ppl tend to forgot that dark knight is the only be able to use both stance in the same or if you do consider the stance talking it's the only tank that can bypass the tank stance penalty permanently

1. Darkside isn't a stance
2. Darkside doesn't bypass the tank stance penalty at all since you also get the damage bonus from Darkside when you're out of Grit. So Grit still reduces your damage by the same 20% compared to Gritless, and on top of that we can't use Blood Weapon with Grit on. So it's actually a bit more than a 20% loss.


The only things I have to complain about pld, are about Bulwark and Tempered Will, especially Tempered Will.
Bulwark should be on a 2min cooldown minimum, and maybe bring block at 100% block, especially whan we have passage of arms on a 2min cd, they can bring the same kind of drawback than Raw Intuition if they need to.
Tempered Will...It's basically shake it off (if not worse), on a 3min cooldown, damn, casters have Surecast, it does almost the same thing, but it's on a 30s cd !!! Change the cd, rework completly the skill like what they're going to do with shake it off, or replace it with somethink else, but please SE, do something about this awful skill, it's the only skill that didn't changed since FFXIV v1, it's insane.
And I don't care if it's fun when it work, I hate having to keep a huge mental list of when it's working, and when it's not working when it should be working. It's useless 99% of the time anyway, and nothing can justify this skill having the same cooldown than a skill like Holmgang.
(Please excuse my poor English, I'm still learning)


Same.
For Bulwark's cooldown to be justified it needs to have added bang, even if it were just a TP restore on each block. Tempered Will needs a lower cooldown, an ability that breaks Heavy/Bind is good enough IMO, just 3 minutes is too 2.0 meta, and aught to be updated.
