What could DRK have learned from FFXI?

My Apocalypse Dark Knight sticks it's nose up at your idea that I'm not a tank.

in the always on ultra haste, -damage reduction capped gear, weaponskill rework crazy game that XI is now? Sure. For the 1st oh...say, 15 years of the game? Hell no. Drk became a tank in the twighlight of the game in the same way that all 2handed melee classes became tanks. With -damage taken gear and stupendous damage capabilities built on mega WS buffs, EZ to attain super weapons and buff creeping throughout 20 years of the game. Drk couldnt tank squat for the early or prime years of the game that formed the jobs identity. You gonna tank some IT crabs in Boyada tree? Hell no. Nice humblebrag though.
