General
- Death’s Due and Shackle the Unworthy Buffed. I don’t know what those buffs are.
Blood
- According to WoWhead, they will be removing AMZ for Blood… I don’t know why…
- They’re doing something with Death and Decay cooldown modifiers and Death Strike for some reason?
- THEY ADDED A PERIOD IN RELISH IN BLOOD .
Unholy
- SS, CS, NS hits 4 targets near a target when you’re in Death and Decay. We know this…
-
DEFILE IS GETTING A CHARGE!?!?!?!?!?! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!??!?!?!?!? 20 seconds CD AND A CHARGE.
- Rank 3 Eternal Hunger gets a 0.3% minion damage increase.
- SCRATCH DEFILE, ALL 3 Specs of Death and Decay gets a CHARGE.
Death’s Due
- Now applies 2% per stack instead of 1%. Guess what, 2H Frost will be still garbage for Night Fae Frost Dks. It now only takes ONE obliterate against two targets to reach 8% strength as a DW DK. Other classes can also reach 8% strength against 4 targets now with 1 GCD too. Neat!
Shackle the Unworthy
- Damage redox to enemies affected by StU increased from 5% to 8% and the AP scaling increased to 205.275% from 178.5%. Probably will still not see play though but the AP scaling over 14 seconds seems somewhat promising.

No Frost changes. 
But different degrees of buffs! DISCUSS!
EDIT: Nevermind. A “charge” for Death and Decay, Defile and Death’s Due does not mean anything. But you still get to apply 2% Death’s Due debuff to enemies though.
I got excited for nothing it seems.

This seems to be that an Aura has an effect on Death Strike and AMZ. AMZ is getting removed from the aura effect. (Could be vers?)

idk, but I dearly hope they don’t remove AMZ for blood.
Blood is already in a rough shape as is. An extra charge of Death and Decay helps a bit though.

Love the change to fleshcraft.
Hope for at least death and decay being meaningful for frost dk that’s don’t pick night fae. A charge of death and decay still will feel meaningless to most frost death knights.

hmm defile has 1 charge. Not sure what that even means
fleshcraft buff is nice. honestly that’s more of a buff to shamans/druids than it is for us
BM in starting area + fleshcraft is useful atm, unless you plan on using it to avoid cc in the first 50~ seconds of the match
Huh… Good question…
… bad question…
… actually, that’s a really good question.
DAMMIT DUDE. YOU’RE BREAKING MY HOPES AND DREAMS WITH FACTS NOW!!!
ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! 
I got excited for nothing. T_T
Very confused by this tuning phase.
Another nerf to hpal? Hmm.
Fmage still doing it’s thing, Convoke still Convoke…but aff lock gets a nerf? What?
Bliz have gone off their rocker.

I have a really dumb question but need some reassurance that I’ve read something incorrectly… when you look at Effect#3, Modifiers Damage/healing done, mouse over death strike in the link, the tooltip shows a heal of 25% of damage taken, where live has it listed as 30%
I’ve missed something very obvious right?
Potentially laying groundwork for 9.1 changes, possibly getting multiple death n decays/defile

You probably took Voracious as a talent.
ah thank you! jeez I was looking around optimistically at the patch notes for a BDK buff of some kind and got worried
Hmm, at least I can enjoy the buffed flesh craft
OH YEA
The Fleshcraft Buff is definitely noticable.
My Warlock is gonna enjoy it a lot.
EDIT: Also Blood keeps AMZ. I just checked on the PTR.
Fleshcrafts buff is fantastic but there’s literally nothing for frost…

well we did get a 5% damage buff during hotfixes
That’s like telling a starving kid to not worry because they ate a cookie 2 weeks ago
