Dark Knight Current State

[ReiMakoto]

Thanks!!

I am pretty good at using my CDs, except Sole Survivor, I usually use that too early, and don’t get the bonus from my target dying while it’s active. I have no issues with spamming Dark Arts..in fact, I assumed I was using it too much. My rotation is essentially one full rotation of my enmity combo (with dark arts), then I start with blood price and the aoe that does damage over time. Then spam dark arts and my mana steal/life steal combo. EVERY action I make I try to make sure I use DA first.

There is one ability that I am not sure about, the AoE that heals me when I use dark arts. The potency is low, and the heal is minimal (unless there are a BUNCH of enemies), I use it very rarely, and kind of don’t even want it on my hotbars lol...

DRK Main here who plays in Savage. DRK is fine, few things to note though

1. You need to put in more mechanical effort to do well (I.E High APM)
2. When You're tanking in general on a boss you should turn Grit off after 1/2 Aggro combo's to use blood weapon
3. General rule I like to use, dont bottom on mana, you dont need to dark arts every ability, only ability you NEED to DA is Carve and Spit, the rest you can choose not too as long as you dont overflow on mana.
4. Sole Survivor: The Death Bonus is nice, but not necessary, just throw that shit out on CD, Holding onto it for the death bonus is rarely worth it.
5. In aoe dungeon pulls spam Blackest night, Quietus when available and spam DA Abyssal Drain, you should have plenty of mana, can also throw in Dark passenger if you have enough mana for it.

There's some basic, hope you enjoy the class more
