How fitting

[ninninin]

There is no physical barrier and magical barrier. Barrier = Extra HP Bar
Having the least barrier? Thrill=Barrier, Shake=Barrier. The tank that start with Barrier is WAR.
DRK=TBN only. And what's TBN? *A glorified Thrill of Battle* with a way to convert/store mp strap to it.

And NO, XIV is not different game. You just want to treat it that way so you can have convenient excuse to ignore all lore and have any ability/trait you desired. Square Enix and XIV used the loyalty of FF fan to reach this day but betray the fan by follow one cocky man. Yes I have problem with this guy, 8 years has passed and some job gameplay remain suck. In live letter at the beginning of shadbowbringers the very first word that came out of his mouth was "Shadowbringers was a big success!!!". Holy Sh- many job is in terrible state and all he care about is the number of the player. Nin gameplay is horrible,Smn make player hurt their wrist, Rdm have a problem with mp and aoe rotation when it shouldn't, MCH was stressed by double weave, Sam is heavily burdened by double casting time. Ast and Sch don't have enough healing power, DRK have trouble with the party that doesn't have WHM. He doesn't apology nor talk about about his failure at all.

Job's changes have to go through his permission before it could get in the patch and yet he waited 7 years to start playing monk to understand it. Just look at the way he work. He won't hire a director, instead he hold the authority of both producer and director position by himself. He just want to have all the authority but he don't want the responsibility. Maybe in next decade he would start playing tank and healer. Warrior Clone have to happen and stay like that because he was obsessed with berserk manga https://www.pcgamer.com/final-fantas...-unfathomable/ . All this time DRK player have paid the money only to fulfill this guy dream to copy berserk manga. He knew long ago how living dead suck but he refused to change it even when a streamer ask him to change it directly. Our [not your] suffering about Living Dead from all these years came from how stuck up this guy is. Maybe half of us would perish by covid before DRK would be a real Dark Knight that isn't just Dark Knight in name. Oh pardon me I forgot we real DRK player who knew what real DRK is doesn't exist. To you DRK=HW. Haste, Mp slave. clipping animation like mad is the real Dark Knight. [pff HW DRK is just edgy berserker beta]

You can't make all tank be unique by have them share the theme because when the time passed it will overlap and identity crisis will return. Warrior start with max hp manipulation/extra hp bar so make this WAR theme. TBN is tied to SB lore only in name Barrier have nothing to do with DRK. It never been Dark Knight theme and will continue to not be in a FF game that doesn't have WoW influence/ a guy who influence by it. XIV would remain fake Final Fantasy as long as it has wow influence on the job. Do you ever have the idea that DRK doesn't only have life drain in XI before talking to me?

DRK is the opposite of Holy Knight that's why it have debuff/life drain instead of healing self or heal the other/blessing. When life drain was taken from it we see how it weakened. When debuff was made available to every tank we saw how it no longer able to remain unique. Living Dead might be manageable if DRK's life drain is strong but nah let just get obsessed over modified thirll of battle and mistaken it as our identity.

WAR/Berserker used to have haste/proc attack/counter. But it no longer have those ferocity that's one reason why it feel slow when it supposed to have a aggressive/fast/active game play. Vengeance is the remaining track that show how messed up and indecisive XIV is when it come to job identity.

DRK and WAR have a problem because they shared dark knight and berserker trait far too long and it will continue until these 2 jobs return to their origin.
