Issue with TBN

[Absimiliard]

I was talking about dark mind. It is (also) the shortest cooldown in its class and has functions in everything except trash pulls. Which is, again, why i didnt dispute your dungeon trash pull '75% of the time' comment. Dark mind is utterly amazing in everything that isnt million mob trash pull. Downplaying it as 'effectively not existing' is completely disingenous for one of the strongest mitigation skills in the game.

We are just going to have to agree to disagree on this. My assessment of Dark Mind is that it is simply not a powerful enough defensive to warrant being on a 90 second cooldown. Its circumstantially beneficial nature would be perfectly justifiable if it didn't take so long to come back up.

Having said all this, part of the reason I don't really care that Dark Mind isn't the greatest is just how strong TBN is. TBN being in DRK's kit more than compensates for that single shortcoming. DRK is balanced around having TBN in its kit. Being what it is, TBN is already one of the strongest (if not THE strongest) mitigation tools in the game. It more than makes up for Dark Mind not being particularly useful some of the time.
