Just something I came up because I'm really bored 5.3 - 5.4 does not look promising to me at all.
Dark Side

MP regeneration stops during battle.
Reduce GCD speed to 2.0s
Drains 500 MP for every gcd.
MP refreshing statuses have no effect. Effect ends upon reuse or when MP is 0.

Blood Price
Acquire Lv.30 DRK Job quest Ishgardain's Justice
Restores Your MP when You or Party Member within a radius of 15 yalms receive damage [1% of Max MP for every 1% of max HP loss while blood price is active. Calculate from damage received so damage to shield always included]

[Dark Art]

Effect fade after combo.
"Shadow Skin"

Dark Missionary : Reduces magic damage taken by 15%. [Convert magic damage mitigated by Dark Missionary on party member to mp and restore it on DRK. Maximum MP that can be restore = 2000 MP]
Duration 15s
New Living Dead
Living Dead Duration: 10
Grants the effect of Living Dead. While under the effect of Living Dead, most attacks will not lower your HP below 1. When HP is reduced to 1 while under the effect of Living Dead, instead of becoming KO'd, you will receive the debuff "Walking Dead
Walking Dead Duration: 10 [Increases HP recovery via healing actions on self by 50%]
If, before the debuff Walking Dead timer runs out, HP is 50% restored, the Walking Dead debuff will be removed. If 50% is not restored, you will be KO'd.
New "Sole Survivor"
Marks yourself with the status Survivor. When the effect expires , 30% of your maximum HP will be restored.
Acquired : LV.45
Duration: 10s
Recast Time : 120s
[by using Sole Survivor 1-2 secs before using the Living Dead it will ensure that we can remove Walking Dead before the timer run out because when Sole Survivor effect expired 1-2 secs before Walking Dead timer end we will restore 45% of our total hp [30% from Sole Survivor + 50% HP recovery boost = 45 %] now if we restore the rest of 5% earlier by using either Souleater/Abyssal Drain then our survival against Walking Dead debuff is pretty much guarantee. Healer probably don't have to waste much resource than it needed anymore should they need to heal DRK with Sole Survivor on cooldown since the required HP that needed to be heal is lowered to 50% and the Walking Dead also give HP recovery boost.]
[Ranged Pull]

Delivers an attack with a potency of 400.
Additional Effect : Restores own HP
Cure Potency: 300
Dark Art combo : Absorbs 100% of damage dealt as HP
Recast Time 60s.
Salted Earth = Merged with Abyssal Drain
Abyssal Drain
Acquire : Lv 52
Abyssal Drain won't instant heal with 200 cure potency x number of targets hit like in Shadowbringer
but it will make the target suffer dot for 15s
You fire the Abyssal Drain at the target and then the Salted Earth will be place where it hit and remain there for 15s
The Salted Earth aoe pool that spawn where Abyssal Drain hit will continue to heal you 100 Cure Potency x number targets inside the aoe pool for 15s [1 time every 3 secs] [It work like how SCH's faerie heal drk over time just different in visual which in this case the Salted Earth aoe pool is the Faerie and there's no green tether tied you to it but if a target leave the pool you will stop get a heal over time]
In the boss fight or a single target, it might help a little bit to lessen the hp lose against the auto attack but it won't be able to heal much like in large pull.
You also don't lose much if boss move away from the aoe pool since there're usually 2 situations that this happen
1 boss move away for mechanic and start casting something and stop auto attack you
2 when you have to pull boss away to avoid aoe/ heavy attack.
And here come another attack OGC [single target]
Something that using the Stormblood's Reprisal attack animation!
Of all the changes I want this the most
"Nameless Skill"
Acquired : Lv 54
Max potency = 400-500-600-700
Recast Time 60s.
This ocg will deal moderate or big damage according to how long the target suffered from dot from Abyssal Drain. At 1-3s left it will deal the most damage it could and ensure Critical Direct Hit.
but I'm not sure how server will handle it. At any rate it have the potential to yield high reward but require precise timing and management to earn it.
AOE GCD
Stalwart Soul replace Unleash
[reason is because when moving while using unleash you character move but there's no leg movement. It look toooo obvious that you just floating and sliding on the ground like T-posing] "Skating during Unleash looks horrid and is overtly apparent - largely because you almost always use the skill while moving. Painfully reminiscent of Quake 2 multiplayer."
