BDK: ''Consistent, high damage with very little setup'

WOW Head now saying that BDK is ’ Consistent, high damage with very little setup’
See the WOWHead Mythic page, under Pros&Cons.

are you saying you disagree? While the single target damage isn’t great the aoe damage can be absurd, which is why the mythic page has this listed and not the overall page. I just finished a +20 BH with around 105k overall dps without an aug. I would say that is pretty consistent, high dps.
If you swapped out your trinkets for offensive ones over defensive ones and changed to fallen crusader over stoneskin gargoyle you would probably see a significant dps increase,

this, its aoe damage can get absurdly high without set up hence why its inthe procs and cons section of mythic+

granted if you use bloodshot it can be higher for no defensive trade off

No wonder every tank in alt runs is a DK now. Thanks wowhead. Blizz will continue to not fix us since more people are playing DK.

This post has nothing to do with me outside of the spec i play. I do not disagree with the post. Just four weeks ago, no one would play or wanted a BDK in party for the reason of low dps. Even Wowhead was pushing that issue. LOWEST DPS TANK IN GAME.

Its rather odd how the tune changed. The damage as always been do-able in S2. As you point out, i am defensive over Off. I can easily spike hard on the meters. I dont bother going Off, i run with to many pugs. I do not trust them. I stop at 15-16 any way.
