    To be honest Dark knight need some love from the devs. It is still the coolest tank and people will play it just for that. But in terms of performance and how fun it is to play it does suffer. But the upside is that it can only get better with time since it's in an all time low right now.

  • @DocDarkAngelo

    The pro :
    -It looks cool
    -You got a big ass sword
    -You can live your deep dark fantasies
    -You can do good damage
    Con :
    -You will die.
    -Healers will hate you.
    -Every other tank will flex on you.
    -You will be a joke for the rest of your life like the edgy teen you still is.
    So worth it, go play DRK.

    Aside from using Blood Weapon/Delirium, your mana management becomes much more smoother when getting Blackest Night. You always save at least 3000mp no matter what in every encounter and always get it back in the next 15 seconds and you use Blackest Night again. But really, Dark Knight becomes more fun when you get to lvl 70.

    I’ve mained DRK since heavensward. This expansion was the one I leveled every other tank to 100. And they’re all so much better. More consistent + higher DPS, if a healer goes down in a dungeon I can still get through the fight. It’s in such a bad state right now and I don’t know why the devs overtune every other tank and let DRK just rot. It’s so frustrating.

    I'm that weird guy that mains Dark Knight specifically because Warrior is too tanky. I'd rather not have the option to stand there and fight the boss solo for thirty minutes instead of wiping with the party so they can have fun too. Plus, TBN is so satisfying to use. I can also do cool stuff with the new living dead, a little communication with the Healer and you can treat it the same as the Holmgang/Bloodwhetting combo in a mob pull.

    Speak at whatever pace is comfortable for you chiefly, but I will admit that I preferred the pacing of this video personally. There have been times in other videos where I have to rewind a little to read your subtitles again in an attempt to understand. Not only will speaking slower like you did in this video alleviate that, but it will also naturally inflate the length of your video, meaning UA-cam will be nicer, right?

    As a Omni Tank Main my Opinion.
    DRK is on the same "squishy" level then WAR, the Problem.. Casual VS Hardcore Content, in Casual Content Bossattacks are often so weak that it dont worthy to use TBN because it is a literally DPS Lost when it not break (means you tank the boss but you cant use ur only Heal what is on level like Equilibrium (Shields are also heal)).. and the only moment in casual where tank/healer work can be hard (in casual) are Wall to Walls where Bloodwheting goes completly nuts.. here we have it, one squishy tank that goes completly bonkers in the only hard fights in casual VS one squishy tank that can even use his heal because the bosses do often not enough damage in 7 seconds to break the shield. (in Savage TBN breaks often after 2 sometimes 1 autoattack)
    I call that "The Blood Death Knight Paradox" because Blood Death Knight in WoW works similar or more, the Problem with Tanks that mostly have selfheal mitigation. When a Tank have heavy Selfheal Mitigation, the selfheal is balanced about the hardest content, that result in the feeling that selfheal tanks in Casual Content _fucking unkillable_ because their selfheal is way to strong for this content, when you play Blood DK in casual for example you will probadly never gona bellow 80% life in general.. in high end? you will probadly bellow 30% _every 5 seconds_ before you top yourself after that, yeah you are EXTREM squishy.
    And WAR is similar because his selfheal is balanced about the hardest content and bloodwheeting makes him unkillable in the only fights in casual content where a tank can die (when you tank the boss no tank needs really heal support besides DRK _slightly_ because of the points i mention on the first text) but when i play Savage or Ultimate, i love DRK because no tank have more mitigation against Tankbuster then DRK, and dont forget living dead (you know the most complicated Invulv another weekness of the tank, you need a healer _with brain_) what forgives the most timing errors what is awesome for multiple hits tankbuster, because your real invulv starts AFTER you get deadly damage.

Bonus because you can survive in Casual Tankbuster as Tank without any Mitigation and WAR just heal himself after that.. DRKs Mitigation works only _before_ he get the hit and sure when you have unexperienced or slow tanks it becomes a nightmare
