From what I've seen the ordering option does it alphabetically on the first column? Which gives me the image that it isn't meant for this sort of an operation?
There's rowreorder, which just got me confused. Is it a single row or by rows?

Documentation for ordering is here:

You define a default sort sequence in your DT initialisation. After that, sorting is done by clicking column headings, unless disabled by the developer.
The
orderoption is used to set the initial table order. By default the order is the first column ascending. See this example.There is a RowReorder extension which allows for the user to drag and drop rows to change the order. See this example.

So from what I can see, rowreorder is something completely different.
The order option is more or less what im looking for, but without an index row I'm unable to order the rows with it in a way where it's last to first.
Its hard to say why without seeing what you have. If the problem is with dates then see this blog discussing how to order dates. If you still need help please post a link to your page or a test case replicating the issue so we can help debug.
