Naito to Ankoku!
Not sure what they could possibly do for DRK.
As for PLD plenty of stuff they could and should do but I don't really want to get my hopes too high.

It is terribad though, not even worth the JA delay of using it. Instead of it being a "all at once", it should instead be soul-eater in that every hit consumes some MP for some benefit like crit / BDMG / attack / ect..

i'm hoping for some great sword weapon skill improvements (specifically Torcleaver) or a rework of blood weapon into a passive trait for DRK and auto-shield bash on block for PLD

Watch them give PLD Curagas and an ability that greatly enhances their hate when using curative spells.

What could they do for torcleeaver? It's already a powerhouse. I'd rather see some scythe adjustments. Buffing entropy or queefus.

And reduce Shield bash delay to 3 seconds! Just use smashing board on everything!

Calling it now, they are tweaking Sepulcher and Arcane Crest.
Maybe they will up the duration or cut the recast, either way it won't matter.

They didn't modify Dragon Breaker when it was DRG's update month, so I don't see this being the focus here.

Ohhhh my god there is much that needs to be done to fix PLD... hopefully the developers understand that we want it to actually be able to TANK again. Do an enmity overhaul or something, give PLDs iLv Aegis/Ochain, make Shield Bash a large Enmity gain tool that Auto-Attacks (like Kick Attacks but more Sparta). Completely redo Atonement because right now it’s literally only being used as a Hate Testing tool and that’s just terrible lol
By Taint 2019-11-26 10:12:26
Petrified and ready at the same time for this update.
I can’t foresee a good fix to PLD, but anything that removes /BLU from being a thing is welcome.

Why are you guys expecting anything from SE?
You should all know by now, SE isn't going to do any ground-breaking changes to PLD, mainly for 2 reasons:
1) It might make PLD better than RUN, and SE most certainly doesn't want THAT.
2) Any "fixes" to PLD and DRK is just going to be changes to Tier 2 Merit Points. In PLD's case, it's just going to be some minor adjustments to Guardian and Chivalry. Maybe even add Enlight III or Endark III to 1200 JP.
You guys are getting your hopes up for nothing.

Access to Foil and a Flash-ga would be amazing for PLD. *drools*

Mehh it’s nice to hope is all. We all know from MNK that good changes take YEARS to implement so it’ll probably be another few years before PLD gets rebalanced. But even so, nice to be hopeful

Dark Knight doesn't really need much other than maybe minor scythe WS buffs.
Maybe adjustments to Consume Mana, Blood Weapon, and Scarlet Delirium. The first is useless, the second is almost always useless, and the third, while potentially very powerful, is very unwieldy and difficult to get any use out of when running with Drain III HP (which DRKs should be doing in the majority of non-trivial situations where it's possible).
Souleater is pretty negligible these days, too.

PLD doesn't need to block if I am honest. Both jobs are capable of taking 0 damage without blocking. However, PLD could just do with extra Fast cast, more enmity tools for retaining hate long term.
