It’s well overdue, what are some ideas people have?

I’d like a real rework - not shuffling around talents
Preferably anything to get rid of the GCD bloat for unholy

My personal opinion with hero trees - give me back the option for frost to be the tank so I don’t have to feel like I can’t freeze myself to be stronger and instead have to be a leechpire.

How about variety in undead instead of just ghouls?

Get in line Monk needs a rework way more then DK
more so WW monk than other monk specs from what i have read but yes DK rework could be cool
I would probably get rid of Dnd and make unholy more about diseases, less about empowering pets and that absurd gcd opener.
Get rid of breath of sindragosa and make howling storm better.
Find a way to make bonestorm baseline for blood dks even it means that it cost boneshield charges.
Add more mobility to the class out of combat, it’s just annoying to be walking behind people when they charge all around. Maybe let dks mount inside.
Also still on the side that they need to remove death grip from the gcd. That’s just griefing when most movement abilities have been removed from the gcd. Death grip wasn’t on the gcd for many expansions and everything was fine.

Yes please, and multi color ghouls could be so cute, like red and green striped ghouls for christmas, abominations that look like bullseye on their stomach, undead kobolds with purple polka dots or some other cute scheme, etc.! Also don’t tell Illumination but use those adorable yellow minions from the Gru movie as well

more defenses like toughness, presences, armor for vet would help a lot
Turn it back into a hero character and not a pimp for some ghoul hotties would be a good start.
They can delete festering strike and wounds too, or rework the hell out of them. They are like old combo points but worse.
Unholy presence back as well ty

breath is the best spell designed in this game lol having your dps controlled by you alone is good design.
So good in fact, that other classes are taking inspiration from it. ie, fel barrage being a mini breath, and fun as hell to play with.
But dks do need a rework for sure. we havent changed at all since Legion. 7 years of the same design

They both need a rework.
im not. lol. its a very straight forward ability. does take some thought to play it though.
Blood needs the most rework, its the most boring tank spec in the game. I hate pretty much everything about blood with the exception of how death strike works. Super slow spec that has you auto attacking more times than not cause all your runes are on cd? PASS!
ngl with blizz making prot pally so focused on consecration, i prefer blood not being so reliant on dnd for survival lol
Though IDK why you think Frost and Unholy need a rework. Unholy’s biggest issue in previous expansions were it was rune starved. But how much runic corruption pops, with how many free death coils you can get, the spec seems very fluid now. Frost is cool too but it just needs more buffs. Maybe more proc chances?
While we are on that topic for a moment - Can we opt into having mistweaving be a thing again like in Legion when it felt real good to move and channel instead of being forced into Fistweaving to be even remotely competitive? Thanks ;-;
While this is more of a big change of other tanks, the fact is that DK self sustain is nowhere near as prominent and unique given other tanks can keep themselves alive while offering massive group utility at the same time. Blood deserves then to have much stronger defenses and less “yoyo” on their health to compensate for our own niche being so freely given away.
Base minimum I’d say the ability to grip allies and maybe for tanks the ability, like intervene, to take any incoming hit for them. Blood should also get the ability to link and share our self healing with an ally where our own self heals that overheal instead goes to our linked ally and grants us/them blood shield. Personally, I’d like to see more skill returned to all tanking specs and not so braindead easy as they’ve become, but I doubt we’ll ever see a return to those days.
Frost should pick 2H or dual wield and be entirely centered around that. Personally, I’d rather see a focus on the obliteration spec over BOS but I get it caters to different content types/weeks.
I don’t really care about unholy. Do whatever to it.
No, stay away from Frost, a rework is unnecessary. The only changes I’d like are some tweaks to make unused talents more useful, like Frostscythe.
