5.0 Dark knight request: Delirium rework

[EpicOverlord85]

Dark Knight as it now stands is easy to learn AND easy to master, the skill ceiling is not as high as you’re trying to make it sounds.

I’d also like to add that balance should never come at the expense of fun. It’s the same issue that the healers are dealing with right now.

i can't agree more to that.

HW Dark Knight was fun as hell. I never got sick of running dungeons over and over.

Dear Yoshi P,

I am glad you do not read the forums and ignore this thread. As you can see from the numbers DRK is the second most played tank and has seen the highest % of player increase out of all jobs. Thank you for making DRK a fun and enjoyable job to play in ShB, and ignoring the (sometimes insane) changes that a "large minority" (basically 2 people who don't understand how to play the job) have been complaining for.

Sincerely, an actual competent DRK player.

HW DRK wasn’t perfect, but it had a unique tool kit with a lot of identity. Now we just feel like a cobbled together job comprised of various Paladin and Warrior skills.

If you think no dev is reading the thread, did you write this just to irk people?

Then i shall play along!

Ah, a former SB war that think current War is a borefest, Pld is garbage and DrK is a smooth job with deep mp management.

Well, i respect your opinion, but i hope you understand that there is people that dont feel confortable ditching their favorite job, so they post their complains here.

It’s kinda hard to not be a competent DRK player at this point considering how simple the tool kit and mechanics are now, but hey nice attempt at a flex.

I get that you like the changes - that’s assuming you played hw/sb iterations and know what the changes have been. There are some good additions this expansion, for example an AoE shield like everyone else had last expansion. I’m not in the all bad camp. BUT just because the numbers are good doesn’t mean it’s fun and enjoyable - it’s brain dead. Any brain dead class can have the numbers tuned up to give the appearance of fun and enjoyment when it’s possibly a mask for poor design. I could understand your perspective, that would be that you have little to none, if you’d never played DRK before this expansion... because the majority of the thoughts are from those of us who remember what the class was originally designed as and how to get back to that.

Why do you need to put everyone down who doesn’t think like you do?

While I respect everyone tastes I wonder how much will be the DRK population if the expansion wasn't so heavy themed to become the warrior of darkness and don't having all that marketing of the job and the WoL wearing the edgy armor everywhere at contrary that old expansions where the marketing was more discrete, (SB was more about zenos everywhere and HW a DRG fighting a dragon with much generic trailers and stuff) so all the new players don't jump directly to DRK.

I can tell you the population will be much more smaller and while I saw many opinions literally most DRK "mains" now only cares about TBN taking 0 damage, is still didn't saw anyone saying he play DRK for the gameplay and not just the aesthetics or TBN/Fray exclusively.

Idk if you are aware that part of the complains about DRK are the job is so brain dead to become competent with it thanks to the now generic mechanics that are being copy pasted and at least in this request are 42 (me + 41likes) people how know specially how it works asking for a change bcs they know how it works and want it to be much more than a WAR alternative skill tree which is a lot of support considering forum standards specially the tank sub-forum.

[Derio]

Literally thats the only reason I play DRK. If DRK didnt have TBN I would main PLD.

Hopefully 6.0 will create a clear distinction between WAR and DRK
