Darkknight questions

[dworkin]

i only died 2 times if i can remember correctly, an thats cause it sticks out of my mind, as being funny. the puller brang a gob. i had mentioned i was at 709 hp out of like 1100 to our whm. who said not to worry about it. i wasnt tanking it. so i went on fighting. i had managed to stun him for its first gob bomb. moments later he tossed another one. i died from a bomb that took all 709 of my hp away. the other one was because a fill in brd sang an aga song, an every bunny in boyada wacked the crap out of us.. an the war died on a bad couple pulls they didnt want to bring back to the camp.

i usually went berserk as my first ability, this lasted for about 2 fights. since the third fight saw a chain at the start, i would use last resort before the puller got to the camp. thus so i wouldnt cuase any more hate on myself.. on chain 5, going for 6 if we thought we could, saw me doing souleater after the second voke til it wore off. if my hit points got 2 low, id shut it down.

Hmmm...drk/sam

I would have to disagree, drk/war is a superior combo in terms of dealing damage. Not only does war sub provide you with berserk, but with the addition of double attack, you can gain just as much tp as having sam sub. Granted you spend some time farming for accuracy gears. Also when using guillotine with war sub, there is a chance that double attack may occur within those 4 hits giving you that big number with guillotine. There are only two real sub job for drk, thf and war.

On HNM issue, drk/sam might not be that bad. Given that hitting HNM even with ungodly accuracy is very difficult, having free tp with mediatate might come in handy. Then again who uses drk for DD on HMN battles anyway, that job belongs to blm, rng, mnk, and perhaps sam because their mediatate isn't gimp. With that said, enjoy being a stun whore....

Likewise, i suggest stopping at lvl 51 and farm your gears to becoming a rng or even a mnk.

Decimation for axe is also nice if you wanna have fun in merit starting light as drk/nin.
