That's the best word I can use to describe it. I am aware that nothing is final until 5.0 actually drops, but still...I can't help but notice that compared to the skills of the other Tanks, DRK just looks lackluster.
The main thing that sticks out to me is how some of GNB, PLD, and WAR's skills have many effects packed in one, but most of DRK's skills are just pure damage or something along those lines. I mean, I was pretty taken aback when a saw that Living Shadow was basically just a D.O.T. I'm really hoping that Square does something with that skill, because if they just keep as pure damage, it will be a pretty big disappointment and a waste of potential. I feel the same way with Salted Earth, still just another D.O.T, and a waste of potential.
Also, I really hope they do something with Dark Mind and Dark Missionary. You just can't give one Tank cds that only mitigate one type of damage while giving the rest equivalent cds that mitigate all types of damage. Then plus, Dark Mind got nerfed? Ugh. Come on Square :/ do you guys hate Dark Knight or something?
The TBN buff is appreciated, but honestly that's the only true upgrade I feel like DRK has received thus far. Man, even Blood Weapon was nerfed.
it feels and looks amazing until the completely stole the identity by getting rid of dark arts which is what made DK well dk. now its more like a dark version of gun breaker but it would be fine with dark arts
