Ofc might need to adjust potencies but it would be very flavorful for DRK and wouldn't need a ton of balancing.

    We still have things like vengeance, which is a very very slight DPS gain for WAR if taking physical damage, but still a dps gain for MTing nonetheless.
    Doesn't matter if you put it on all tanks, giving them resources for taking any attack is precisely why it's banned, they gave a pack of DPS just taking damage. Vengeance only gives a very tiny amount potency less than auto attacks, and requires boss actually physically hitting you which isn't much.

    Paladin gained DPS shield blocking using Shield Swipe in SB.
    Dark Knight gained DPS by MP feed and Low Blow in HW.

    This can be extremely exploited in raids to pad a certain tank with a stronger burst, and leave the other out.

    I don't see how this can be extremely exploited in raids. During adds phase where the DRK is tanking 2 adds? Maybe. But I don't see how it would improve the burst that much. If 200 MP per hit is really a problem, lower it to 100 MP. Getting 100 MP per hit on you or the other tank wouldn't be an extreme DPS gain. Now if it scaled on damage, THAT would be super broken, but in this example it isn't.

    I'd argue it'd be much more busted in dungeons, but we already have Blood Whetting. Even before that, we had Nascent Flash which was only a little worse.
