Just because DRK cleared ultimate first doesn't mean it doesn't need buffs

If evrything is ok whit DRK then we would not see numbers like this in fflogs.

From what fights has this data been gathered?

Neo. No matter than percentile average, Dark Knight represents only 22% of uploaded parses. Now this isn't a full proof metric. Samurai, for instance, has high upload totals despite slowly losing its foothold while Machinist is the lowest despite being meta. Still, it's far better than looking at a WF clear and assuming everything is fine.

Sadly it seems SE does not feel the same way, according to the PSU interview. Seems they are going with the viable = balance mindset.

That... Isn't remotely true. This is the actual page that shows the Neo statistics. That image shows the total number of parses uploaded for all fights, so there's a heavy bias in regards to Alte Roite.

Secondly, there isn't an easy way of telling how many reports of O4S there are. Going by raw tank rankings, there are about 3100 ranked WARs, 4000 ranked DRK, and 5700 ranked PLD. This means that WAR is actually the least represented tank in Neo Exdeath. 24% WAR, 31% DRK, 44% PLD.

For comparison, the rankings for O1S are 28% WAR, 33% DRK, 41% PLD

I guess this means that poor actually underused class WAR needs that good ole SE ridiculous buff to get the people playing it again.
