So Drks getting rekt 3 expacs in a row great job devs

To me the biggest concern I have is that the merged BW/Delirium is only 3 stacks, so the MP/Blood economy might have changed.
And without plunge the job is going to have the worst downtime its ever seen post burst in terms of 123 spam.

Both of these would be remedied entirely if Delirium was a 30 or 40s buff rather than a 60s one, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

Look forward to your healer dps rotation.

I mean we still used Plunge during burst window, not in filler.

What really bothers me is the Dark side gauge. Since ShB, that gauge could've been completely hidden from us, we could have no knowledge about, it would still remain at 95%+ uptime due to its overly automated aspect.
I agree with BW/Delirium being 30s would help a bit making the job less boring, but it might completely change the MP economy.
Another mechanic that could help would be Edge of Darkness reducing Shadowbringer's cooldown by 10~15s.

Since we use Edge around 4~5 times per minute, this could add 1 use of Shadowbringer every minutes.

Salted Earth should definitely be changed and become an aura that continuously absorbs surrounding ennemies, insteand of a puddle. Salt and Darkness could follow the same changes, an aoe around the Dark Knight.

Yes you do, the burst is once every 2 minutes, you accumulate 4 stacks in that time, and can only hold 2 stacks.

Yeah, sorry I count the 60s phases as burst.
To me, Filler is when you're outside those 60s phases.

There's odd-minute burst and even minutes burst, the reopener.

That I agree, the Dark Gauge is abysal af

True, wouldn't say no to a bit more GCD here.

And it's not like they erased existing GCD with really nice animations and sound before.
That would be the scourg...sorry, i mean the bane of my existence.

Im still surprised that DRK don’t have a second combo , now with the new delirium we kind of having a combo i guess but im surprised that instead of blood weapon back then DRK didn’t get a MP/Blood regen combo that would allow them to charge up and switch to their first combo fully charge and use Edge and Bloodsplitter but I guess it would have been too strong

[ShariusTC]

now we know that they can put lionheart ingame with GNB, why not give DRK omnislash?

I don't think DRK and Cloud line up all that aesthetically, especially not the level Squall and Gunbreaker do.
