<div></div><p>Im still holding out hope they have some nice upgrades comming for Shadowknights in the tanking department come tier 7, maybe even class armor which makes up for some of our pitfalls.</p><p>It definately wouldnt be the first time Sony fixed the Shadowknight class with an expansion</p>

<div>Sk taunts really need some attention, I hope SOE will fix it soon.</div><div>I don't plan on quitting. I have a lvl 60 DE SK which I still enjoy playing, either as MT or as 'normal' dps.</div><div> </div><div>At the moment I'm also playing a brigand, love the DPS.</div>

[JoarAddam]

<div></div>I'll definitely have to look at my spells then!  I feel so silly for not knowing that IW got an upgrade.  I'll buy it tonight.

<div>Ha I was wondering what the hell you were going on about Joar!</div>
