AOE tanking on drk was so fun

[kamikrazy]

60s cd on abyssal drain is big time oof, doing TBN and abyssal drain and then Quietus to keep your mana flowing, shield breaking, dark arts abyssal drains and your hp flying up was a glorious experience that was 100% unique to drk and made them very fun to play for me, it was like it’s own aoe combo that was a lot more cool, fun, and useful than unleash and no other tank could kill it in massive aoe pulls like drk could

Very sad because this was easily the funnest thing to do as a drk, now it will be gone forever

I have no idea why they put abyssal on a cd. I think it would be cool if it was a 3 stage aoe combo for drk with abysal ending it. So unleash -> stalwart -> abyssal

literaly the same reason why they increase dark passenger CD to 60s on SB, they just make abyssal drain the new dark passenger being a slight better.

With a 60s cooldown they should have just removed it or reworked it in a way that it was beneficial.

DRK is pretty much a entirely new job with Dark Arts gone and the big pull AD spam gone.

Ah yea this. It’s probably good they reworked drk but it would have been nice if they kept the good things about drk instead of changing it all.

I also love DRK's unlimited mana AoE pulls but I'm holding my criticism until the final game is released. Everyone seems to be forgetting that what was seen in the Media Tour basically set the foundation for the upcoming changes but a lot is subject to change before the final game is released. I'm sure Yoshi and crew are collecting feedback about this especially since I'm positive they've been hearing the constant criticism on the state of DRK. I would think they wouldn't be as foolish to have this fall through when DRK is supposed to be the posterboy for ShB...

But the again Monk was supposed to be the posterboy for SB and we saw how that went.
