Can I summon Fray to tell off NPCs that ask me to do inane stuff for them like during the class quest?

[@Unholychinchilla]

Quality editing on that quintuple bloodspiller. Would never have known had you not said.

[@Chaser547]

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!

[@Chaser547]

Thanks for the likes folks glad there are others who see the dark lining in the clouds =3

The sword reminds me of Guts from berserk

[@JohnGlow2]

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

[@dragondaddykushala7133]

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

[@AlleluiaElizabeth]

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

[@freyavaleria21]

Yo Larry! what's the music you're using at the end of these videos?

[@Drakuron96]

No changes to Living Dead? Well... Knowing your main rotation now includes Souleater I don't see much of a problem regaining HP back

[@MrRaposaum]

Quick question: do charge skills begin with full charges or do you need to be in combat to charge and stack them from 1?

[@vordulak6048]

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

[@Atrisce]

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.

[@JohnDoe-nm3lg]

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

DRK main here, I have watched this video legit 20+ times, I think Im in love again

Some of his animations just make me think of FF4 Dark Knight using Darkness. I cannot wait to play this class in a month!

[@pixielst]

This I need to know Larry. Is Living Shadow animation lock?

[@BearManley]

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?

[@eF5ive]

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!

Uh Larry you forgot to update our DRK leveling playlist for the exp bonus. smile

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"

As the wise noob saibot once said. "The darkness is my friend". Let us all embrace the edge together.

[@ricewashed]

what was the sword you used in this video?

[@mommozz123]

That would be the "Weathered Shadowbringer", it is part of a set of rewards of all left side gear and a weapon upon reaching lvl 80 with DRK. These gear sets are known as AF gear, and in the case of Shadowbringer, AF4.

[@Galeforce017]

They say Hoptraps have gone extinct. No idea why.

[@Graavigala85]

1:03 I could have sworn you said FlutterShadow...

[@Banana-cc5rx]

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

[@Kazuhiira]

gonna be hard getting used to NOT spamming my dark arts key

[@RekiWylls]

Just put Edge of Shadow there, you'll be hitting it almost as much anyway ;)

[@ToastyCoyote]

I’m you and your me from the sea of my soul I call you forth PERSONA!

[@roxascross3741]

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

[@tashawh88]

Hi, i have a question can this class be played as a damage dealer only and never use the tank stance ? or the damage output is to low compaired to the other classes?

[@BlazingAzureTheta]

The damage output would be lower than DPS jobs. Also, most content is role blocked, so you can only play Dark Knight in a tank role.

[@tashawh88]

@@BlazingAzureTheta thanks man

[@ozm0zesjoe466]

5 bloodspillers or Quietus!?! Omfg this is more than what I could have asked for...SE you nailed this one!!

[@grey292]

elijah potts You can go on the Balance discord server and learn from there i would also recommend learning from experience aswell.

So glad I main Dark Knight as these changes are pure beautiful :)

[@77wolfblade]

Indeed.

[@altansipdrae2759]

- Darkness, darkness. Darkness! - But why darkness? Why not light? - Because I like darkness.

[@judgeoschon8395]

Do I see a Just A Pancake reference?!?

[@altansipdrae2759]

Indeed

[@chriscogaming5494]

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

[@panda_panzy4280]

So how strong is dark side?

[@wisdom501]

I started dark knight recently and feel really squishy. Is this the case with DRK or am i doing something wrong?

[@jetblackangelX]

DRK is alright with defense so long as your gear is good. Hp is about equal to paladin, if you main warrior, it'll feel squishy at first but you get used to it. Your gimmick is saying "no" to magic dmg.

[@dysanti2618]

Gunbreaker dark knight howw to choose now😭😭

[@Trojianmaru]

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

[@Sinitsu]

DARKNESS WITHIN DARKNESS!

[@ViciousTriangle]

Guess I'm finally going to learn how to tank, dark knight looks even more fun than before

[@Mar-nj5so]

Were there any PVP changes scheduled for Shadowbringer?

[@TheShadowfan9000]

"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.

[@mommozz123]

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.

[@TheShadowfan9000]

@@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.

[@fredxu99]

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.

[@JakeNKnight]

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.

[@Synkhan]

lol, we can finally have a drink with ourselves

[@TheShadowfan9000]

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 @.@

[@Lurker1991]

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.

[@nightdevon]

Even more edge!!

[@raiden8919]

Does the new Dark Knight AF sword remind anyone else of Dragonslayer from Berserk?

[@everydaynormalgamers]

More like a Sword from Asta from Black Clover.. :D

[@SavageReaperDemon]

So can Esteem hold aggro or is he treated like a pet that can't be targeted or hurt?

[@Lurker1991]

I figure he is more like Ninja's shadow move, but instead of copying your weaponskills, has own mind and just do his thing.

[@Veldroas]

Looks at the sword ... Oh hi Guts
