DK is the worst it has ever been

[Fishpoke-area-52]

Yeah… the “secret” pvp ineffectiveness of abilities (especially the fact its not stated in the tooltips on top of it) need to go out the window immediately.

That explains why DKs are rare in PvP right now, they got the shaman treatment lol. (stealth nerfed ES/mana regen) + no healing throughput as DPS specs and elementals damage dropped off a cliff here recently for whatever reason. It’s unplayable as it presently sits for PvP and I imagine high end raiding where its all about min/max (or was, I haven’t PvEed in years and dont care to honestly)

@Caide-quelthalas

that is exactly the point DKs have always been trash against melee (warriors, monks even rogues if the rogue is average skill level or above) which ofc make no sense since DKs wear PLATE and should be able to tank some damage from those classes (but we all know blizz is not gona fix the armor bug on PvP any time soon sooo…), but at least DKs used to feel decent against casters, now both casters and melees just train Dks because the class have no defensives left, all of them got nerfed or deleted from the game, the class is a complete joke rn

spaghetti code vibes intensify

@Dicromick-illidan

only downside is that it can get dispelled but good luck dispelling as a warlock is casting chaos bolt on you.

Dispel effects needs a rework given the sheer amount things that need to be dispelled to be worth the GCD/resource cost in PvP situations. Higher mana cost, dispels more effects, no cooldown. If it doesn’t cost mana/resource, then it has a cooldown (like greater dispel which dispels… 2 effects!) only like 6 more effects to dispel before you get to the one you needed removed!
