The company was going through a phase where they were willing to sell ridiculously broken pay-to-win stuff in all of their games. Doomknight these days is actually not even the original Doomknight. The original was so ridiculously outrageously broken in such a way that it trivialized literally the entire game by nature. So the developers were cornered into nerfing it if they wanted the game to have any interactivity at all with a large part of the playerbase. But obviously people who bought it also didn't want to readily accept a nerf to the P2W class they bought. So newer people who've bought Doomknight get a less broken one, and older players who bought Doomknight are grandfathered into the outrageously good Doomknight but also get the less broken one.

Dragonfable today has its monthly challenge battles as a core piece of its design philosophy now and I think they do a really good job at pushing the limits of the battle system with that. But anyway as part of that, the old Doomknight is banned from the challenges. New Doomknight is still really good to be clear. But it has some flaws. It's maybe the best class in the game but still doesn't do every challenge very well. Recently I feel like Pirate's been destroying all the challenges the easiest. But it depends what style of fight the devs feel like putting out, and the playerbase is pretty temperamental, and the devs are receptive to the playerbase for good or for bad
