Dark Knight DD or Tank

[Zumi]

They should just have multiple skill trees that let you tank or dps as a dk depending on which one you pick. If its not broke don't fix it.

Like everyone here has stated.. DD lol

GLD is a hybrid and then PLD and DRK are polar opposites, you cant make Dark Knight a tank without screwing that up lol

I like the idea of implementing jobs like SAM/DRK/RNG potentially as DDs but I really feel that we need another tanking class just for variety! Ninja was awesome when it was balanced in XI and many other games are implementing the idea of different types of tanks.

The funny fact of 11 was Ninja was never intended to be a tank job. The dev even went so far to make it... what was it lose hate the more you cast utsemi or every shadow absorbed made you lose hate. Samurai was suppose to be the DD tank job.

I personally HATED ninjas as tanks as my Drk they could never hold hate off of me i would pull hate from ninjas missing. Me wiffing was able to pull hate off of most/pretty much all ninjas.

I agree with most of this post however around 2005 in XI they really nerfed NIN (same time as RNG if memory serves correct) as a tank in almost everything (save the occasional kite). Before that however NIN was over powered as a tank and preferred for many high tier NMs (At the time, ex: Byakko). All based off personal experience of course, and as I also played DRK pulling hate was almost inevitable if not managed correctly.

If we're not going to see DRK as another playing class, are we happy with mainly PLD as the "main" tank with WAR acting as your next best option?

DD, and i think DRK shouldn't come with GLA class.

Why would you want it to be DD AND based on GLA? GLA has weak weapons and holds a shield; it would be wasted on a DD class and DRK would need an extremely high STR stat to make up for the poor damage output of swords.

I never said that. At least on my bad english, it shouldn't come with GLA class is that DRK should come from other class .

Ahaha, oh sorry, I completely mis-read your comment =b
You're right <3 Hehe

It'll probably be a Greatsword/Scythe class (Not that I want it to resemble XI at all, it's just the only thing I can think of =/)
