For that gimmick to exist, its damage has to be better. Hands down. If SE cant figure out Living Dead, or give it to a tank that can actually handle the drawbacks, among other problems DRK face, the biggest factor(keeping a damage buff up) should at least be aknowledged by the job itself. SE doesnt want to do that? Then design DRK to be more than a shell of a role. period. I mean what good is the illusion of a damage buff that has to be kept up, if it keeps you dead last in comparison to the other jobs in the role that do not have to maintain a dps buff, let alone have more to offer in any situation than DRK beyond its Stoneskin ability, which again...2.0 PLD *cough cough*
Dark Knight beats Warrior in every fight of the current tier, and there is no reason to believe this shall change without a fight heavily catering to warrior (extremely low up time to make IR windows much more impactful).

And even comparing it to Gunbreaker, it's behind by maybe a couple hundred.

Dark Knight does not have a power problem.
