    Dark Knight Tank Stance Change +3.x Reprisal and 3.x Dark Dance

    In a recent post attempting to balance dark knight dps, the idea was thrown around about making blood weapon and blood price a trait of the tank stances rather than independent moves. I believe that this suggestion along with a second suggestion, namely bringing back 3.x Reprisal to our kit, might actually address a large number of Dark Knight issues. I would add a third suggestion here which is to also bring back 3.x Dark Dance to the Dark Knight. The change would look something like this:

    1. Darkside gains Blood Weapon as a passive trait.

    2. Grit gains Blood Price as a passive trait, and toggles off blood weapon.

    3. 3.x Reprisal replaces Blood Weapon as an action, now can be activated by breaking TBN.

    4. 3.x Dark Dance replaces Blood Price as an action, buff the parry rate up to 60%.

    This set of 4 changes would have little impact on Dark Knight's current rotation, but would fill in its missing dps, provide a fluff damage cooldown, and act as a party utility.

    It would require a 5th change which is to change the action of delirium. I would propose the following delirium change:
    Delirium:
    Doubles the action of blood weapon or blood price for 15 seconds.
    Recast: 60 seconds
