No idea what PA thinking, any class that cappable to grind Hadum is basically 1 shoting DK who is above them for like 100 GS while DK can't do nothing to them. Player damage is non exist, DP is non exist. CC is non exist.

DK now is off new PVE content ?

Yeah. I tested those places on my warr. I felt pretty much useless, albeit I could survive. I tried it on DK-I got railed to death and lost a crystal worth millions. I simply was no match for the mobs. :)

I've been grinding hadum just fine on DK, and have earned far more than I've lost.  Sure I've died several times and lost 2 jin vipers 3 han hooms and 3 corrupteds, but the place has been available for weeks and I've grinded a lot. 

The lowest DP I grinded at was 315, and I'd still survive castle ruins & fogans, but frequently died at orcs. 

The lowest AP I grinded at was 281 kutum, and the trash/hr has been fine everywhere. I currently grind at 301 nouver because i blew my kutum up a while ago, and that is working just fine as well. 

DK is trash for PvE (though there is some minor PvE buffs coming in a few week), but it's BS that you can't grind those zones, you can grind them.

Whether they will be profitable is a another story. Generally DK strugle with high HP monsters (at least awa), but you can oneshot atleast the bandit ones with the hadum awa ability, if you have weapon, and two shot them with any other ability while you have weapon.

Without weapon it takes time to kill them.

You can kill the other ones aswell, you just need to do whathewer "mechanism" they give, ie: kill the prisoners at the orc, otherwise it takes long time.

I mean there plenty of squish classes that grind fine on Elvia including DK. Youtube and Twitch actually have a few streaming now.  On my Ninja at 345 I still have to nope out, how much DP/DR are you actually using.

l2p. I came back after 2months break and first thing I did was going for Orc Hadum grind. Guess what? I was fine on my DK...  did 6k trash/h with no weapon spawns aswell...

I play 291 kutum awk dk and ive made my second tet obsidian piece at hadum. I get around 7k trash an hr at orcs without weapon spawn but let me just tell you that a class with 20 less ap will still get 8k or more trash an hour. (striker, hash, valk, guard, wiz, witch..ect) dk is trash tier pve. I've been really holding back spending 1.5b for a tag
