I mean, you can chop off your leg and call yourself unique, but you just make things much harder for yourself.
I mean DRK is/was uniquely tanky against magical based attacks. It was the only tank that could take TOP P6 damage without any outside influence during 6.x and it retains on average being able to take large hits better than the other 3 tanks. Is that not a unique point of advantage that DRK has. Why is it “uniquely” bad because it’s bad in dungeons. I mean don’t people defend WAR’s balance because it’s advantage is strongest in dungeons
