Give DRK a magic vulnerability debuff

[TabrisOmbrelame]

A magical debuff for Drk?

Sounds pretty good... With this, Drk got some synergy with all magic classes and more further with a summoner. And what if the Drk and the Summoner where to chain their debuff just after the first one finished? Could be ridiculous.

But applied to Dark passenger or a third combo? When you see this, it's be quit cheated. With DP then it's a massive debuff on every single mobs before you... Akh Morn and Infect will be the most powerful attack with such a thing, even too high.

And if it's a third combo then you can maintain the debuff for ever... Even more broken...

Putting this on sole survivor could be better for balancing it

Still you got a good idea

War keeps Slashing resist-down up forever as part of their DPS combo alongside multiple other DPS jobs, I don't see the problem.

DRG paring with BRD/MCH would like to have a word with you.

That said, I really like the idea of DRG having a magic vul debuff. Anything to help casters.

Excuse me, I don't really know the mechanics of war, cause I don't play it.

I understand where you are coming from, but if we got a magic vuln debuff then it is only a matter of time before warrior gets a full damage version which is twice as vulnerable on half the cooldown and also makes breakfast. If we went down the route of getting a damage up utility then it should probably just be like the pvp version of sole survivor.

Lol, so you're assuming that even if we buff DRK, SE will end up buff the other tanks to keep DRK at the bottom ?

I know youre joking around, but it wouldnt matter if it were on Sole Survivor or on a 3rd combo/Passenger; even if it were on a longer cooldown such as Survivor theyd get a version which is only 1.5 times as vulnerable on 3/4th the cooldown (but without the breakfast).

I like the idea of giving DRK Magic damage. But this is like a change that'd happen on an expansion, with new abilities etc. Or if the job is in a really bad state. But DRK isn't in that bad of a state. So They'll probably change one or 2 abilities that will change the style.

I can agree to that to some extent but remember they COMPLETELY reworked Shake it Off for Warrior. Besides, didnt they say they wanted to achieve tank balance in this expansion? I know all tanks can run/complete content, but if 2/3 tanks are just plain better in DPS, mitigation and utility than the 3rd one then Id like to see some (major) buffs to it.

It's not only about DRK.
Caster really need some love and synergy with other class.
The proposed changes aren't big to implement, it doesn't require an expansion or new abilities.
Giving the debuff to DP or Sole would be simple enough. They only need to figure out the proper duration and potency of the buff.
