Because that would require them to actually assess DRK and SCH, and make them come to the conclusion that both need a rework. Which is something the devs would rather not admit when they can come up with some ridiculous reason that DRG, the poster boy for "fine as a job", needs a rework.
Damage means nothing when the job feels bad to play.

100% agree I might love big swords, magic but if dark knight feels not fun to play why play it? even if it's meta I'm having way more fun on Paladin or gunbreaker.
Dark knight needs a rework really badly it might be "meta" but that doesn't mean it's a well balanced or fun job for most people


You get regens and barriers on warrior, you have more survivability aswell, my only downside would be that you don't have a rez, I think they might add that next major patch where warrior idk magically throws that axe at someone to revive them.




Re: PLD
This isn't the "full emergency rework" they made it out to be. Some potencies got adjusted, dots removed, and bulwark added back.
Overall, relatively tame and lackluster.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]



I thought everyone was super anxious they'll take a hammer to the Job and remake it a WAR/GNB clone.![]()
Mortal Fist

Where's the range increase for Succor on Scholar? Nobody asked for a separate button that turns off tank stance. Nobody asked for a buff to Shake-It-Off. Warriors are not the healer, stop acting like they are. Where's the removal of the MP cost from The Blackest Night? Where's the raid buff for Machinist that people keep asking for? Square Enix has heavily failed their players with this patch.
