Dark Knight

"The pious Ishgardian clergy guide the flock, and the devout knights protect the weak. Yet even the holiest of men succumb to the darkest of temptations.
None dare to administer justice to these sacrosanct elite residing outside the reach of the law. Who, then, defends the feeble from the transgressions of those meant to guide and protect them?
A valiant few take up arms to defend the downtrodden, and not even the holy priests and knights can escape their judgment. Pariahs in their own land, they are known by many as “dark knights.”
These sentinels bear no shields declaring their allegiance. Instead, their greatswords act as beacons to guide the meek through darkness." — Game Description

Dark Knight, first officially announced during the 2014 London Fan Festival, is a Tank job that wields a Greatsword (2-handed sword) as its weapon. It wields not only a weapon but also the power of Darkness (magic-based tank). Unlike 2.0 jobs, Dark Knight will not have a base class and starts from level 30. It will come with the first expansion pack Heavensward in June 2015.

Unlike other tanks, Dark Knight will use MP instead of TP as its main resource. DK uses MP to cast a darkness buff that drapes the player with a darkness aura. Play style revolves around maintaining the aura, using it for defense, to buff yourself, or offense, to damage your enemies. It is a new style of tanking that will utilize Piety.
