DRK the least chunkiest or is it just me?

[Siete]

I feel like every other tank can take many many many more punches than DRK.
Am I playing it wrong?

DRK is the most tanky of them all, you need to play it right.

DRK is the most tanky of them all, you need to play it right.

If he is below level 70 DRK is the least tanky. Paladin gets shelltron early and has a built in block on top of parry. Gunbreaker has a heal/shield on its combo and aurora. Warrior has raw intuition and equilibrium. The order you get skills for Dark Knight is just completely screwed up. They don't get darkest night until 70. Heck, they don't get the second part of their AoE combo until 72. They don't pick up their class specific stuff until late and are kind of half a tank before 70.

If anyone says Dark Knight sucks as a tank, I would bet on them being below 70 at which point I agree they are weaker than all the other tanks.

How about you edit your original post to include the true details of what you’re asking instead of this misleading first post that is tripping everyone up who reads it? Mention that you are asking for lv 70 and below content, before you get TBN.

I feel like if op communicated his/her issue better from the get go it would bring in less people tripping up over his/her post.

How's he supposed to know that DRK gets better at 70? If someone just picks up the class it would clearly seem like something is wrong with it. Really the DRK experts should know there is an issue below 70. I'm not a DRK main and I immediately knew he was below 70.

Is this your only/main account?

You only have DRK leveled, how do you even know that 'every other tank can take many many many more punches than DRK'?

Do you even use TBN?

What kind of bait is this thread?

Because I've seen other tanks solo stuff that is impossible for me to solo. I don't have any way to survive without The Blackest Night and that isn't available until level 70 content.

Better Gear, maybe? Or you're simply not that skilled in your job yet (compared to Tanks playing for years).

Is your gear up-to-date? Staying on-top of armour is more important as a tank than any other role.

TBN helps alot
but there are times where its gets a bit wonky

[Nedkel]

You need a lot of time to learn and get proper gear.

DRK is one of the tankiest jobs in the game thanks to the shield, other tank jobs only have additional 10-20% CD more in comparison to DRK.

[Siete]

But I'm talking about BEFORE getting The Blackest Night...
It's like, no mitigation or substain before that compared to other tanks.
I have some pop CDs but so do the other tanks.
I've seen a GNB heal himself through Nidhogg and as a DRK I can't do that, I don't have the buttons to keep myself alive and heal up that way.
