I'm leveling a Dark Knight at the moment and yikes. Squishy, barely any CD's, terrible damage, virtually no self healing.
I'm thinking back to leveling my Paladin and he had extra armor from the shield and blocking, so way less squishy, plus Sheltron and Clemency just to make extra sure it was nearly impossible to die.
I remember many runs where the healer died early on my Paladin and I'd literally just play tank and heal the whole group with clemency. EZPZ. Had that happen on my DRK today; couldn't have possibly been more helpless. Had my 3 CDs to buy me maybe an extra 15 seconds, and a pathetic 600hp self heal going off every 3 GCDs (wow). The Support DPS were able to keep themselves alive more effectively than me after I died; they could actually self heal.
I know it probably gets better later on and everything is balanced for 80, but exactly HOW much better does it get? To say this is disappointing would be an understatement.
