    Pretty much everyone else playing DRK seems to hate it.
    I would have preferred to have back a variety of oGCDs to press for my APM, as per Heavensward DRK, but DRK has easily become the least interesting tank of the four for me with the removal of DA, Attack Speed on BW, the ability to turn mass-pulls against weak mobs into a no-healable field of carnage, and most of its CD-synergies.

I simply don't understand why they want to keep their "magic tank" theme, after they made paladin being able to deal with all types of dmg (where he struggled with magical one,since block didn't effect magic), warrior never had issues with it (thou he had a skill which could only counter phys. type) and want to keep drk of being the "magic tank" (or being the only one who has cd's to deal with magic only abilities, while the other tanks can deal with both types at the same time with every skill they have). One could say GNB is now the counterpart to DRK, because he has a def skill which is based on parry and 10% flat dmg reduction, but i am not a fan of this skill because its only a 50/50 if it parry's or doesn't, but he only has this 1 skill and drk has 2 which only deal with magic.
    Sure most of the raid wide aoe's were almost always magical, likely it wont change, still if a drk were to go into an encounter (if the devs decidet to design it this way) with only phys. raid wide aoe's, he couldn't provide any raid support again (i know its pure speculation, which might never happen)
    Either they are more consequent with the ideology of "magic def tanks"/"phys. def tanks"(in making 2 tanks phys.def tanks and 2 magic def tanks) or they completely abolish it.

    Yes i am a bit nit-picky on this
