    Dark Knight's Identity Crisis

    I'm aware that DRK is having viability struggles but I think there is a bigger issue.

    Problem: After stormblood took away warrior's enmity management and dark knight's dark arts they lost their identities. Warrior found a new identity after the Nascent Flash buff and has been going strong since then, the devs still don't know what to do with DRK

    Potential Solution: Make DRK the opposite of PLD, make it the black magic tank. Make it's burst end with a long cast. Remove plunge and replace it with something like Icarus. Give them a dot spell they have to keep up, like poison.

    I wouldn't mind this change. It would certainly at least give the devs something to work off of in terms of identity than just not knowing what to do with DRK every expansion.

    warrior didn't get a new identity, it already had 2 before they removed bloodbath and gave it to the dps. It was the big bursty offensively and self healing defensively

    nascent is just bloodbath but with a defence bonus and really a lifesteal such as it should go to dark knight and WAR focus more on equilibrium and thrill of battle esque healing and let drks get some sustain and life steal already
