Mainly for PvP. Not even getting to play just being kicked for being a DK.
Can we balance things out a bit more? Simple request.
This is similar to the stigma Gjallarhorn brough to destiny 1. People we’re turned down for simply not having the weapon. It’s not healthy and it shouldn’t be apart of this game. WoW has been around for 15 years+ It shouldn’t take 15 Years+ to see how unhealthy this can be for players who enjoy this class.
I don’t care how many Devs are in and out of office throughout those years.
Do you play the game? Do you play the class? Do you care?

This just shows how decadent the dk is, sometimes I wonder if they at least do an analysis or study on the DK and the impact that the imbalance can have on the game, SL was a living example of how tedious it was to play dk, DF is not being more than a confirmation that there is imbalance.
Many players are attracted to the DK because of its role, for example I do nothing more than play my main dk, but what I experienced in SL and it is currently depressing, they avoid you for being a dk or they expel, it is already something that impacts the players who do not they can play comfortably what they like… Or do we have to reroll paladins, warriors or balance druids in order to enjoy the game?

Make an alt. Play a class that is fun and great at pvp, then have your dk as your pve character. Not every class or spec can be good at everything.

Lol this post is like asking for rogues to be worth in BC which they where also drop and kicked often for better comps.
So the group leader added you to the group and some other person says to kick you? And then what happens? Does the group leader not put their foot down and say its their group and if someone wants to dictate who gets in their group to make their own group and kick the person? Thats what I would have done.

Welcome to the world of being a ret paladin. Sure, right now we’re accepted (and slowly being nudged out again due to terrible scaling issues in the new season), but we have always had to fight tooth and nail for raid spots, rated pvp spots, and even general dungeon groups.
It doesn’t matter if you play your class better than two of the class they bump you with, it doesn’t matter if you follow mechanics, top damage, bring utility and even step in to recover the fight if the tank goes down. If the “meta” says you are a bad class, then the bad players will reject you.

Hence fake news. It’s a thinly veiled “buff is we’re being bullied” thread.
Then getting kicked was a good thing.

You are not wrong and definitely not alone.
After getting kicked and asked for feedback of why I was told and I quote: “DK is just mid.”
If it wasn’t for SS (that is random) and my guild doing RBGs, I would never get a rated match. Like ever. No premade group want us.
PvE is the same thing. I finished the Embers storyline and got the last quest that is the raid quest and again, no group wants me. 15 groups. None. Fresh run or even the last boss. Nada. “Oh, but you can use raid finder” yeah, but I have to WAIT until JUNE 19 for the unlock and even then they can just kick me.
But wait, there is more! Mythic+? Never heard of it. There was even a group called “No DK”.
So what should I do? Delete my character? Stupid metas and tier lists blacklisting us.

I understand all the DK,s frustartions being that I also play and unfavorable class BM. Sadly blizzzard tends to lean towards whatever classes are favored during PTR testing. I agree however that there needs to be better balancing for DK,s I have missed seeing them in PVP and PVE content. So blizzard please stop nerfing and changing classes based on the %2 opnion look at your other %98.

People who complain about these topics are mediocre at best. If you play a non meta spec you have to put in more effort. Either get good at your spec or play something easier. This rarely happens sorry and its probably you just actually being bad at the class

I also play BM and struggle to get into groups if I’m not the lead. I never turn away DKs. They pump. Most classes can be great for normal players. We all like to think we’re the .01% but we’re not. Start you’re own groups. Live your best life.

Sorry about your luck, I generally don’t have an issue.
Edit: Looked at your character, your ilvl is low and you have zero io, those are your issues.

As a BM hunter I feel your pain. The amount of times I’ve been sitting in a group and kicked for one of the other calsses that can lust and do significantly more damage then me with much less gear is pretty wild. Hopefully Blizz will as least put us on the same playing field as other classes.

What?! Dk’s are absolutely insane in RBG rn. Their pressure/grips/caster lockdowns with frequent pulls is the reason we squash caster comps.

if only they would implement some sorta system where groups of like minded people could get together. maybe give them their own chat channels and let them organize amongst themselves so they don’t have to rely on pugs.
