Even tonight, I lost count of how many times I got hit by a SAM’s LB or got Imp’d by a WHM right as I jumped before I even had a chance to drop Salt and Darkness. It's way too coincidental to ignore. I think some players are resorting to unethical tools to keep up with DRKs.
Some players may just be aggressive and just parry the DRK straight away.
If it's not a typical "I'm here for my daily experience", but a confident player and knows pvp, he can most likely separate the priority target from the secondary ones. This also applies to instant stuns/controls after Guard. Just watch your enemy blue buff and be ready press control. With my ping I can press it in time when already less then 1 sec and buff about to go off from dude. It's why better never sit in Guard full timer. You need try close to end or in mid of timer press Sprint and try run from enemy, of course if situation good for it.
instant transformation into a small pig, a very good tactic to knock DRK off balance, and do not forget that this thing has a distance, just like your game model is already in a different point while your animation is happening.
If you play DRK, be prepared for Hate, and thank SE for such balance~^^~
