so they turned dark arts into a passive thing that is helpful that's good, gave us an aoe rotation very nice, we can summon our inner darkness, and we have an inner release of our own...I love it so much!
I just started ffxiv about two months ago. I started as DRG until I beat the MSQ. I then switched and leveled NIN. I recently switched to DRK and beat Heavensward. Man, I love tanking! And they look awesome. Had such a blast with the first DLC. Starting Stormblood when I get off later. So psyched!
This is the reward for all the DRK players, who have continued to prefer this awesome class to the other tanks. This great job is for us 🖤 Thx for the video
Damiano Banzo I just started this game 1 month ago but DRK was instantly my favourite class! The changes look amazing and I am really looking forward to them.
Dark knight is like my Jam, I so enjoy taking this edge lord class and transmogging it into an adorable looking knight who just wants hugs and every one to just get along. and bring doom and death upon thy enemies!
When you start dancing Fray should either 1) Start dancing with you, or 2) Do the /huh or /upset animation at you :D "What the heck, you summoned me just for this"
"Power Slash is gone" NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, NOT ANOTHER COOL LOOKING SKILL GONE ;w;, Also I guess Dark Passenger is straight up gone too. Which nobody noticed because who even uses it LOL.
Legit sad that Dark Passanger is gone. It's actually a really good skill. On 2 or more targets, it's a DPS gain per MP spent VS if you would spend the MP on anything else when 2 or more targets are present.
@@mommozz123 Technically I guess it's replaced with Flood of Darkness, which now I'm starting to realize we lost like 10 skills and replaced about 7 of them. I'm honestly bummed sole survivor is gone.
So from what I gathered as a tank main (mostly play DRK though cause I love it's balance between the current two) is they are pushing a hard balance between the 4 with the tank stance and the similar potencies of DPS sure they look fancy but it's like a piece of other tanks I'm sure it'll balance out I hope but looking now it just feels like all 4 can roughly do the same thing just with different animations idk still gonna play it regardless lol
I didn't think it could get any more edgy Also, some of these come dangerously close to looking/sounding like Cloud of Darkness attacks Also also, Unleash has a combo ender?
I can't decide if this is a Buff, a nerf, or am overhaul with enough of both not to tip the scales to either side, but it definitely feels like it'll take getting used to
TBN proccing Dark Arts is perfect. My main complaint with old DRK was that TBN just granted you another Bloodspiller *yawn* but now, it's actually very interesting to use.
weird that the living shadow timer already starts ticking the moment his spawn animation plays. And a slight delay before the AI launches the first attack. So technically only 17secs of uptime base on the video
Larry what about you that action at the start of the job action trailer for DRK. Where it looks like he slashes the sky, and Darkness rains down. It was at the start of the entire Shadowbringers trailer. What is that move?
Been a DRK main since it was released in HW, and I'm hyped and sad for this version of it. From the looks of it, its going to play A LOT slower than before, but it does look fun. It honestly kind of feels like a Warrior clone now though. Im hoping when I get my hands on it I'm proven wrong but it also feels like they raised the skill floor pretty hardcore for this class with these changes. Still can't wait to play it though.
So, Larryzaur, idk if you're still bound to a contract but I'd like to get your opinion on something that is worrying me as a DRK main. What do you think DRK's identity as a tank is? WAR is the offense driven one, PLD is the protection, GNB is specializing in a lot of speed and on the spot mitigation... What is DRK's identity now that it has WAR's inner release and only 2 skills to worry about mana with? Also how does SE expect me to know what attacks are magic @.@
Well, I'm not Larry, but as DRK main I'd say DRK has been the middle ground between WAR and PLD, having offensive and defensive capabilities of their own. But with GNB incoming and changes made to prior tanks, we just have to wait and see, if DRK's only identifying traits will be edginess and magic mitigation. I settle on being DARKNESS with greatsword.
I know this is late,, but I will forever miss Dark Passenger and low cooldown Abyssal Drain. They still gave Drk a line AOE attack, so I don't understand why they didn't let Dark Passenger fill that role. The new line AOE doesn't look or sound nearly as satisfying.
>"Your own inner darkness is your new best friend."
More reason to get that Lone Hero title from HoH for maximum RP experience.
You know what
Yeah I need this now, u right
Larry: Inner Darkness doesn't dance with me Square Enix please fix
Fray: I do what I want, I'm not dancing with you.
b-but fray ;_;
I tire of this charade.
Who is the real Fray though.
the shadow should copy your skills tbh
@@ryunalunaris14 Fray is not a bland copy though. He is the manifestation of your inner darkness / anger with a mind of his own ;)
FRIENDSHIP ended with CURIOUS GORGE
now FRAY is my best friend
NOOOOOO Curious gorge is the best :(
Fray was always my best friend 💙
Larryzaur SAME!!!!
This literally happened to me when I got to Ishgard, rip my man Curious Gorge
I am thou, Thou art I, from the sea of thy soul, I cometh. I am Fray, the Dark Knight.
I've seen jojokes, I've heard Naruto jokes
but this....
for this- I love you
Go, take my upvote.
@@hykewnesumens7890
Who says that I am dead
Knows nought at all.
I - am that is,
Two mice within Redwall.
The Warrior sleeps
‘Twixt Hall and Cavern Hole.
I - am that is,
Take on my mighty role.
Look for the sword
In moonlight streaming forth,
At night, when day’s first hour
Reflects the North.
From o’er the threshold
Seek and you will see;
I - am that is,
My sword will wield for me.
Clearly, when this ability is used, your character may as well just be shouting "PERSONA!"
@@cryw1092 babeh~ babeh~ babeh~ babeh~~ ohhh yeaaaaAAA~
"Don't expect anything in this world, because when in darkness even your shadow leaves you"
Fray: I left for literally five minutes to get a drink
The Dark Knight or Gunbreaker decision struggle is real
Chris M Paladin ;)
I was a warrior main but now im rerolling dark knight!
I personally love that GNB has a heal you can give others.
Both of course
Quality editing on that quintuple bloodspiller. Would never have known had you not said.
Can I summon Fray to tell off NPCs that ask me to do inane stuff for them like during the class quest?
so they turned dark arts into a passive thing that is helpful that's good, gave us an aoe rotation very nice, we can summon our inner darkness, and we have an inner release of our own...I love it so much!
Thanks for the likes folks glad there are others who see the dark lining in the clouds =3
Dude im rerolling to DRK from WAR. Only reason i was war was cause inner release. I'm so excited DRK got their own inner release.
@@zacktorretta7347 You still stuck with DRK now?
Rip power slash, the only Dark Knight attack that felt like it had any weight behind it. Wish they had made given soul eater its animation instead
WEIGHT!? WEIGHT!? HAVE YOU SEEN THE SIZE OF OUR SWORD!??
The sword reminds me of Guts from berserk
Gonna miss the animation of Power Slash. It was like the coolest weaponskill.
for reals. I want the ability to glamour animations so I can get power slash animation on soul eater
DRK main here, I have watched this video legit 20+ times, I think Im in love again
Most of the game, I've been maining Ninja in the MSQ. Now I want to main DRK in Shadowbringers MSQ. :)
"Hello darkness my old friend, ive come to talk with you again..."
NO NEED FRIENDS???
Seems like a perfect job for me
its not like my friends refuse to buy the game or anything.........
I’m thinking of buy it sometime in the future. If I do wanna be adventure buddies?
I just started ffxiv about two months ago. I started as DRG until I beat the MSQ. I then switched and leveled NIN. I recently switched to DRK and beat Heavensward. Man, I love tanking! And they look awesome. Had such a blast with the first DLC. Starting Stormblood when I get off later. So psyched!
The simulacrum is named "Esteem"? Its your self-esteem and its dark as pitch... God, the memes are right, this job is so edgy. XD
I have never been more glad to have leveled up DRK.
"Your own inner darkness is your best friend" yes this... this i am used to
So glad I main Dark Knight as these changes are pure beautiful :)
Indeed.
This is the reward for all the DRK players, who have continued to prefer this awesome class to the other tanks. This great job is for us 🖤 Thx for the video
Damiano Banzo I just started this game 1 month ago but DRK was instantly my favourite class! The changes look amazing and I am really looking forward to them.
Atrisce you started a month ago and you already unlocked drk?
John Doe you can finish ARR really quick it took me about twenty something days
No changes to Living Dead? Well... Knowing your main rotation now includes Souleater I don't see much of a problem regaining HP back
Best job this expac
Change my mind
LOL their mitigation is all magic based, absolute trash - flat damage mit is always better. It's the worst tank.
@@renten3718 Now watch 99% of the fights this expansion will be magic damage based hehe :P
@@renten3718 lol 😂😂 worst tank??? Why u want to tod disagree with people I swear people like u always exist to disagree with people
Some of his animations just make me think of FF4 Dark Knight using Darkness. I cannot wait to play this class in a month!
Boy, that's some nice bloodspiller spam. Thank you larry for this viewing privilege.
Living Shadow needs to be up to 30 or 35 sec because it didnt use it first skill until after 6 sec it was summon
i almost cut myself on all that edge watching this video, because it was so Dark and shadowy
IM CRYING REAL TEARS IM GOING TO BE SO EDGY AND BADASS!!
O.o we get our own inner release!?!?!
I need a minute...
Welp, R.I.P. Paladin, I'm gonna be bottom tier, aren't I? :/
@@Altarahhn maybe? I donno, have not seen what they did to Paladins
Its a nerfed version of IR. Its gonna be fun, but I was hoping they would have gave us more than just a nerfed mechanic.
You edited that Delirium spam? Wow I couldn't tell, it was perfect :P
Dark knight is like my Jam, I so enjoy taking this edge lord class and transmogging it into an adorable looking knight who just wants hugs and every one to just get along.
and bring doom and death upon thy enemies!
inner release+drk=heaven
I shouldn't have watched this...its going to be a long long month. Yes I am a DRK main....
Wise n' Frosty same I am so freaking stoked ...
I’m you and your me from the sea of my soul I call you forth PERSONA!
Wow... Such simple, beautiful changes. They really did my fav right!
When you start dancing Fray should either 1) Start dancing with you, or 2) Do the /huh or /upset animation at you :D "What the heck, you summoned me just for this"
I rather see him slapping and then just facepalming. Especially if you start moogle dance with him.
"Power Slash is gone" NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, NOT ANOTHER COOL LOOKING SKILL GONE ;w;, Also I guess Dark Passenger is straight up gone too. Which nobody noticed because who even uses it LOL.

As the wise noob saibot once said. "The darkness is my friend". Let us all embrace the edge together.
I love the gifs at the end, should post them up
Can’t wait for a bunch of DRKs to get together in pvp to have what would basically be a stand battle but with bigass swords and linkin park.
gonna be hard getting used to NOT spamming my dark arts key
Just put Edge of Shadow there, you'll be hitting it almost as much anyway ;)
Wait a minute wait a minute.
Is dark side gone!! I like my red darkness oozing out of me square at least do that with grit!!
5 bloodspillers or Quietus!?! Omfg this is more than what I could have asked for...SE you nailed this one!!
Thank god for delirium change, i went back to warrior cos inner release cleaves were way more fun than old version of blood gauge
I knew my inner self is my best friend.
Glad to meet him/her again since the lvl 50 job quest when I kicked his/her butt!
lol, we can finally have a drink with ourselves
Its been a while since I've seen one of these videos.. Larry sounds super different now!
oh man im looking forward to the changes
- Darkness, darkness. Darkness!
- But why darkness? Why not light?
- Because I like darkness.
Do I see a Just A Pancake reference?!?
Indeed
Uh Larry you forgot to update our DRK leveling playlist for the exp bonus. smile
They say Hoptraps have gone extinct.
No idea why.
Damn DRK is the bomb this expansion. Glad I leveled all my tanks to 70.
1:03 I could have sworn you said FlutterShadow...
Fray! ;A;
*I love this all.*
DRK inner release? Hell yeah!
Jokes on you square. I was already only the soul eater combo. Some youtube video told me to only ever use it
Guess I'm finally going to learn how to tank, dark knight looks even more fun than before
I didn't think it could get any more edgy
Also, some of these come dangerously close to looking/sounding like Cloud of Darkness attacks
Also also, Unleash has a combo ender?
DRK sounds so fun, guess i've found my new main for ShB ! :D
AAahhhh
can't wait for DRK Change !!!
I can't decide if this is a Buff, a nerf, or am overhaul with enough of both not to tip the scales to either side, but it definitely feels like it'll take getting used to
DRK mains be like: CRAAAWLING IN MY CRAAAAAWL. THESE CRAWL THEY WILL NOT CRAAAAAAWL.
Me, an intellectual: HAIIIIIIIAI FOOORCES, HAIIIIIIAI FOOORCES
TBN proccing Dark Arts is perfect. My main complaint with old DRK was that TBN just granted you another Bloodspiller *yawn* but now, it's actually very interesting to use.
DARKNESS WITHIN DARKNESS!
oh that clenches it, im going to throw together a white knight glamour for DK so i can contrast with my shadow as much as possible.
He is a DARKNESS! that can cast a DARKNESS! upon *DARNKESS ITSELF!!*
Well this solved my dk-ninja dillema. Cheers :D
I am so excited for the new changes.. I think I love dark Knight now, bye to u Pala..

WOO!! Dark Knight FTW!!
the kage bunshin 😁
This I need to know Larry. Is Living Shadow animation lock?
DAMMIT! All of these options! I'll never settle on a main...
I thought I was the only one. I saw Sam and the dps is gonna be insane and now drk. I’m here just trying to decide lol
I wish I could main them all... but I suck too much for that to happen...
Been a DRK main since it was released in HW, and I'm hyped and sad for this version of it.

Still can't wait to play it though.
I don't like that the shadow does random attacks. Knowing my luck it will just spam unleash at the boss.
Noob Saibot lookin' dope in this.
I love new animation and most changes I don't like dark arts gone nor do I like removing the aggro combo cause that always looked cool as fudge
New AF sword is Guts sword from Berserk
deffo sticking with DRK :D
Even more edge!!
/Insert something about Jojo and stands here/
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu? Hells to the yells baby!
Thank you! DRK night is indeed our bestfriend
4:00 Queue "Boulevard of Broken Dreams."
For a second I thought you double jumped at 2:37
So you went from Dark Knight to Paladin to Dark Knight again
Ya he is my MegaBFF
Yo Larry!
what's the music you're using at the end of these videos?
Does the new Dark Knight AF sword remind anyone else of Dragonslayer from Berserk?
More like a Sword from Asta from Black Clover.. :D
Looks like The Blackest Night got a buff too.

all 3 tanks look so fun to play now.. i cant decide what to main argshhsgsgd
rofl, good one, your darkness is your best friend
when is the DarkArtsISover party? as a fellow dark knight main i must be there to help send this move off with a proper farewell.
Dark Knight's armor reminds me a bit of the Batman Who Laughs.
Hello inner darkness my old friend
I know this is late,, but I will forever miss Dark Passenger and low cooldown Abyssal Drain. They still gave Drk a line AOE attack, so I don't understand why they didn't let Dark Passenger fill that role. The new line AOE doesn't look or sound nearly as satisfying.
Quick question: do charge skills begin with full charges or do you need to be in combat to charge and stack them from 1?
Where does one get that sword and armor because it’s amazing
