Frostbane Rework Idea

Classes Death Knight

To make Frostbane better synergize with Obliteration just make consuming a KM what makes your next Frost Strike Frostbane. This would smooth out the gameplay of it and make it a lot more intuitive to weave like normal.

Some more added synergy would be with Killing Streak. Let Frostbane get two stacks when consuming 2 KMs and do added damage by spending both those stacks at once. I think having to spend both the stacks of Frostbane separately would be okay but Frostbane would need an added runic power reduction bonus.

Maybe that can even be the benefit of spending two stacks of Frostbane. When casting Frostbane with 2 stacks it does ~25% more damage and cost ~50% less runic power.

Having KM effect FS to turn into frostbane I think would be really cool.

This would definitely resolve my gripes with Frostbane.

Oh and welcome back on your DK, Ronin!

The main weakness of Frostbane is single target, so following your idea, it would be cool if spending two stacks of frostbane causes it to do double damage to your primary target. Would add some skill expression too.

More stuff tied to KM and thus Obliterate… no.

Did you even read? The post mentions Frostrike consuming KM procs to turn FS into Frostbane. That has nothing to do with obliterate other than giving KM an option to be used for something else.

This reply is proof you literally just come on these forums to argue.

On the Alpha Frostbane now does 300% more damage to your primary target so single target has been addressed.

Yes. I did.

This is what you are referring to. It doesnt say the thing you think it says.

So did you even read.

It doesnt. Its funny how you guys talk about me not reading but the post actually talks about KM in your Obliteration window make your next Frost Strike actually be a Frostbane proc, and when you use 2 KM procs then you get 2 stacks of Frostbane that you spend both stacks of Frostbane for double damage.

Clearly you didnt read a damn thing. Dont talk to me like im stupid when you literally dontk now what you read. The post literally talks about spending KM in Obliteration to force Frost Strikes to turn into Frostbane… holy crap what are you doing?

You are just dumb dude.

Funny how you skip the part when I replied literally stating using km to make FS into FB… again, do you even read?

I think Kelliste is just opposed to an idea tying everything into KM and Obliterate. Which I unfortunately think it’s fair.

… But I really wonder what other options to convert FS into FB more reliably because GA with RI stacks just ain’t it.

Personally, I think consuming KM and turning FS into FB is a simple solution that I am starting to realize not many people would like that.

oh ok thats cool, didn’t know that.

I like the idea of KM being used for a Runic Power Spender personally. But the only other option I can see making FB better without something like that is to give a mini cd and its own button press.

But unless they changed how KM procs function, it will be what the spec revolves around. I don’t see a reason to not give it other functionality.

Who cares what you replied with. I wasnt replying to you. Can you even read?

14

Thats all that KM can be used for… so you like the idea of something that already exists… got it. Just remember, you wanted to open up this can of worms.

15

Cleary that was a typo based on my other comments and meant to say runic power spender.

16

Bro you literally troll every single DK post and you don’t even play the game. Why are you even commenting on things when you don’t play?

Pathetic.

17

A typo? A typo is like “typi” not getting something completely wrong. Its like you wanted to say Obliterate but said scourge strike.

Then why are you so upset all the time? If im just trolling why do you bother calling me out… oh right, because im not trolling and you dont like me.

18

I legit just want to know why you bother. You don’t play, from your previous comments in other posts, you don’t have intentions of playing, so why bother giving feedback on a game you don’t play?

19

“I want to know the answer to my question that you answered about 15 times now, but I dont ever pay attention so I keep asking you to be a troll and annoy you”

Thats you.

I mean there’s always Rime as another source to cause deterministic Frostbane procs.
So when you cast Howling Blast and consume Rime with it your next Frost Strike becomes Frostbane.
