Explain to me why Blood DK is blasting in PvP?

Usually loses hard to casters.

Can do okay into other stuff but if dmg is played around well it’s hard to make anything happen until super late damp.

Yea that makes sense with casters able to kite well and the BDK not able to get off as much burst.

It’s really more just the damage output as the game goes on.

I feel like BDK will basically thrash any melee 2s comp though which is the upside. Especially if the melee is a physical damage melee class.

It’s decent into Warrior and Hunter. Loses to Rogue. :dracthyr_blob_dance_animated: Havoc is also probably too much mixed damage but everybody hopped off those and onto other specs because it’s kind of a fotm class.

As it should be, don’t want a repeat of SL/DF for atleast another patch.

This was at 80% health. I’ll try to take MORE screenshots next time. Don’t act like this isn’t common.

Thankfully not an issue on my hunter.

Slurp.

You prot bros aren’t right in the head!!1

Ran into Blood DK/Demo in 2s
won by W keying the Demo but it was really lame

Yea I wouldn’t expect a double DPS Blood DK comp in 2s to be that successful.

if mes and trill won that game i would be confident in blood getting nuked this monday, but they didnt so not sure

They probably slap a pvp modifier on sang or essence stacks. :dracthyr_love_animated:

yea maybe. the forums and reddit have beem quite active about it.

i think this will be a true litmus test on whether or not they read forums/ reddit. to my knowledge, venruki hasnt made a blood video yet.

but if they nerf blood and dont buff unholy or frost there will be so many dk tears

I mean there’s also just seeing the spec performing well off whatever their stats are.

Frost doesn’t seem likely to get many changes as long as fdk/enh and fdk/dev are a thing.

Fought two different bdk + war teams yesterday, one with sham and one with MW as boomy+sp+rsham. Won both games, but for some reason they tried to train me the entire time. Really feel like they could’ve just gone on the shaman every time they had damage and there’s nothing we could do.

Maybe they saw the propaganda about how Balance is weak defensively.

The what now?!

Clearly it needs buffs because it’s not like it just won EU awc and 3-0 echo or anything :dracthyr_sweat:

I can’t believe big Balance is paying people to create threads about BDK to draw attention away.

Okay so not 2 million at 100% health. 80% already gives it a 20% damage bonus.

The only thing different from BDK’s of today vs Dragonflight when it comes to Death Strike is the hero talent Frenzied Bloodthirst, and perhaps if Gift of the San’layn does in fact increase Frenzied Bloodthirst by 200% through Essence of the Blood Queen.

That would be the only thing that needs to be looked at, but we both know that won’t happen. Tanks aren’t allowed to see success in arenas, and the forums will cause a knee-jerk reaction from Blizz in an area of the spec that isn’t the potential issue.

I loved playing Blood in pvp the last 10 years, but I’m glad I have it up at the start of the xpac before this debacle occured. Keep letting mage/rogue gang dominate though.
