When Dark Knights use a Kraken Club and Souleater, they can cause massive damage. Every hit the club does takes 10% of your life. When having a WHM or Blood Weapon with Souleater, HP is returned. Souleater lasts 1 min, and with merits the recast timer can be below 5 mins. A Dark Knight can do around 12-15,000 damage every Souleater. This is arguably the best damage combo in the game. The drawback, however, is the monster will have VERY high TP gain, and give the Dark Knight ALOT of Enmity. Enmity can be lowered -10 with every Muted Soul merit, though.
Dark Knight with Kraken Club is a popular way late game to "speed kill" some HNMs. There have been many instances where Kirin is killed in a matter of minutes usuing this setup. Also Kraken-burn-able mobs include King Vinegarroon, Bahamut (B2) and Vrtra. -Ayann/Makaveli | Lakshmi

abit late, and somewhat irrelevent, but kirin can be killed as quick as 40 secs, or less using kc drk(s), hell get 10 kc drks and he'd go down in a matter of 5 secs. a competent tp burn setup can take him down in 3-5 mins. --rOg \ TaLk 21:55, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
