Death Knight’s are a Hero Class, they’re suppose to be strong, stand out and be feared on any battlefield. Now in the corner they stand-alone, feared to play in Dragonflight.
Death Knight’s requires a more advanced learning curve, leaving many to steer clear. Runic Power management, Rune management, resources to manage on cds, time your cds wisely or put yourself in a tough bind. Learning to play a Death Knight, choosing to play one should feel rewarding and fulfilling. The Death Knight is weak and brittle, it does not feel rewarding to play and leaves you thirsty for something else.
Mr Dev, please revert some of the Nerf. Don’t let another day go by where Death Knight’s work full-time without pay.

Just watched a video of an ilvl 345 Unholy DK soloing M0 Ruby Life Pools. So…nah.
Well the nerfs were in PvP so of course the survivability is going to be unchanged in dungeons. So yeah, regardless of how serious OP is, the PvP Death Strike nerfs do need to be reverted because they were ridiculous. No other class got gimped like that either.

Gotta disagree there. All DPS classes are doing way too much healing currently. DH, DK, Rogue, Warrior, Warlock. There’s just no justification for DPS to be doing so much healing. That’s what healers are for.
The same goes for tanks, honestly. Seeing Blood DK / Guardian Druid top the healing meter is just stupid game design.

Its funny people still don’t understand Dk healing shows up additionally as Ams,Amz and WoN so people think its more broken than it is.

Yes, and yet nobody else’s healing or defensives were nerfed anywhere in the galaxy of the extent that ours were. However, the difference is that DK healing is primarily done through melee so we should heal more than other classes to compensate for that, especially as a melee class. Also, our class concept is superior self-sustainment. What makes no sense is a CASTER having a FULL HP SHIELD that lasts for 20 seconds on a 1minute cooldown, on top of resto druid level healing with one ability.

Hero Class means nothing aside from it starting at a higher level than other classes.

Thats not what a hero class is supposed to be. Its intent is to just do stuff differently. Started at level 55, had its own leveling area and story, each spec could fill both roles. It had nothing to do with the strength of the class. The devs just had it overtuned somewhat admittedly. They even wanted to nerf it back then.
Guy claims it’s an M0. I guess you could compare the health level of each mob he’s fighting to verify.
Go watch the video of the ilvl 345 Unholy DK soloing Ruby Life Pools. He’s doing 45k HPS at times. On just himself. In relatively bad gear. It is absolutely busted for a DPS class to have that much healing. Period. There is no argument.
Its a mythic 0. He got the achievement at the end of it.
Hunters took a WAY bigger healing nerf

The nerfs were PVP nerfs.

So are Evokers. Being a “Hero Class” means nothing. Just that its a more difficult class to master. Nothing else.
Evoker Devastation does everything but devastate. Feels like an actual joke.
DKs ? For once on prepatch they felt like a force of dead. Now are a joke that die to WW and Furys in seconds.
DH ?.. oh wait. I guess THATs the true Hero Class.
…yeah. Because your healing was insane to the point where you could solo heal yourself through at-level content as a DPS class. You’ll still have that ridiculous ability in PvE. You never should have had it to begin with in PvP.
PVE stats don’t apply to PVP and haven’t forever.
We’d still been operating on PVP DS nerfs from two expansions ago.

Uhh. Death Knight is no more difficult to learn how to play than any other class.
Especially with all runes being death runes now.
It’s no different than any other class that has two resources.
