What about creating an ACTUAL Dark Knight?

[DemonicNeko]

You know, these "high-risk high-reward" tanky jobs that sacrifices their own HP to protect themselves or deliver strong blows?
That literally steals vitality from their foes to survive?
Makes shield out of their foes' blood?
That do ACTUAL DARK STUFF.

Does is speaks to anybody?
Or is that just me? '^'

Honestly they have no idea what to do with DRK. We can see that with it being an emo warrior. I like the idea of us being a high risk high reward tank. With a very high ceiling. If funny how you brought up using our own hp as a tool to do abilities and using the enemies life to aid us. The level 30-50 dark knight story. Really gave me that feeling of a dark knight true power is. You use your life ether to slay your enemies. Yet killing enemies you suck the life ether out of their dying bodies to feel your dark parts.

So kinda like a vampire/demon tank. Yet we are not drinking blood or eating souls. We are draining their life forces.

Tanks can't sacrifice HP because a majority of the playerbase sucks. Is basically what I'm getting from you.

Probably why they trivialized enmity management.

So basically the traditional concept of a Dark Knight is perpetually dead. Nice.

Totally not true. It just out side of Main Story. Square is really lacking on ideas. Which sadly that really all I do now. As the game play is pretty bland. Would be nice if we got something new and exciting to do. When a Paladin, Warrior and Dark Knight all play exactly the same. It feels real bad we have to ever play gunbreaker or dps to get some more exciting game play. Tanks this expansion suck.

optionj 1 to 3 kills scholar bubble
ask for an adjustment to tena to make it a viable stats so we can stack suvival instead of dps

Option 1 is just changing the MP cost to an hp cost for The Blackest Night. Which I would love this change. Making sure to pop it at the right right time. None of this. "oops I missed the tank buster so I am going pop Blackest Night to cover for the healers." That would just ko us. Would bring a new level of play to the class.
