8.0 Dark Knight capstone skil

[Reginald_Cain]

Will dark knight get yet another variant of getsuga tensho? (dark energy blast from sword)

Honeslty wish it had more defensive or better end combo then souleater. Yeah the small heal helps in solo but carve and spit can out heal it easily

Carve and Spit might outheal a single Soul Eater, but it's a 60s cooldown. In that timeframe you do at least 6 of them.
Besides having a really boring animation, and being the only combo that Dark Knight has left, I think Soul Eater itself is fine. I still remember the complete lack of a heal on Paladin's combos being extremely noticeable back in Shadowbringers, before it got all the healing stuffed into it's burst damage spells.


As for the 8.0 capstone ability, the same can really be asked for all the tanks.
Does Dark Knight get another energy blast from your sword?
Does Warrior get another "I can't believe it's not Fell Cleave" finisher?
Does Gunbreaker get another big damage big explosion sword slash?
Does Paladin get yet another magic blade that you throw at people?

I hope the answer will be no, but it will also depend on the implementation. I don't need yet another thing that I just press every 60 seconds to do more damage.

I wouldn't complain about having more 10y range GCDs with flexible use window tbh.

Could we please get literally anything else for once. Like actual job mechanics so I'm not bored out of my mind until the next burst is up.

You will get a 60s damage cycle soon, going by Gunbreaker. Enjoy!

At least I get to use Gnashing Fang every 30s lol. Better than 1-2-3 until the next window.

Besides Living Shadow and Disesteem it more or less already is 60s. I'd happily take the 40s cd windows back that DRK had before though thanks.

I sometimes forget about getting 6 soul eaters out before next carve and spit since a lot of times i tend to use my flood/edge, shadowbringer or delirium combo. Honeslty soul eater to me would be nice if it had extra healing for crit

I wish Dark Knight were the self-healing job. Maybe it's just me still, after all these years, immediately thinking of the EQ1 Shadow Knight that was half-Necro-half-WArrior, but I wish I had DoTs, a permanent pet to command and lifedrains and lifedraining DoTs.
