Hope you guys are enjoying that 8% buff we got

Because im not, Nothing changed in the slightest, And our class is still terrible

And aside from our awful damage, and our noodlestrikes, Our defensives are still garbage

Bloodforged armor is bad gameplay from Frost dks perspective, Mashing deathstrike every other GCD is very unfun, and crippling to our damage.

AMS is still super gutted over a talent that no longer exists.

Deathstrike is still gutted because of an interaction between 2 absorption effects, one of which no longer exists, And the other of which is gutted

WotN is still gutted

We still never got nearly any honor talent changes whatsoever despite being promised they would be looking at them in 10.1, I guess they got lazy and didnt want to do any legitimate work and fully expect you to continue throwing money in their direction for putting out a halfxxx effort

Rot and wither still exists (LOL)

Bitterchill still sucks, It could be made 10x better being a haste steal and interacting with proliferating chill, But i guess we dont pay enough money to warrant them putting brain power into their changes.

Dont worry guys, Shroud of winter received massive buffs with its fancy new picture it got this patch!~!11113311111 (seriously why does this talent exist again? can we just be rid of it, its a shell of an actually good talent called heartstop aura and im sick of looking at it)

I hope you guys LOVE spellwarden, You lost your most powerful defensive talent for a team AMS that lasts as long as a blink of an eye, While also only protecting from 1 measly attack before it explodes into nothingness

I could go on and on about the many garbage things our class is suffering through right now but im losing the ability to care. It genuinely just seems like the developers want DK players to just unsub and stop giving them money which is honestly so fine by me, I cant exactly say that i want anyone at that company to have the money theyre making at this point

Im tired of being fed literal fertilizer and paying monthly for it, just to receive 0 effort from these developers

And im sick of PvP being treated like its a mini game. If literally just half of the effort that goes into making all the lame pve stuff went into pvp, it would easily be the largest part of the game but its not surprising that its only a “mini game” when virtually no effort goes into making it actually good

Edit: Oh and right as i posted this, hotfixes went out for raids / mythic +

Dungeons and Raids

  • Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible

    • Fixed an issue where some Voracious Magma Worms could not be attacked.

    • Rashok, the Elder

      • Fixed an issue where Rashok can sometime not jump to target player’s location during Searing Slam.
  • Mythic+

    • Brackenhide Hollow

      • Brackenhide Gnolls no longer trigger Mythic Keystone affix effects on death.
    • Halls of Infusion

      • Containment Apparatus health reduced by 10%.

      • Limited Immortality is now properly cleared from players when starting a new mythic keystone.

This is where your money is going, Just remember that. They would rather make weird and sometimes unnecessary changes to instances than they would paying attention to specs and classes that are grossly behind functionally, or numerically

They care more about these instances than they care about the classes we use to experience them

Theyd rather nerf healthpools of mobs in instances, than they would fixing the damage of certain specs to be more competitive which could have the same exact effect as nerfing healthpools on certain mobs

If youve been playing this game as long as i have, Im honestly sick of seeing sometimes meaningless changes in certain areas of the game as opposed to changes to make certain classes feel better or do better, It happens quite a lot and its very disgusting the amount of weeks that can go by without seeing class changes especially for specs that really need them. Im not sure why ive stayed subscribed to this game the last 5 years with the amount of neglect Frost has received. Let alone DK, Its always just some copium of “maybe next week we’ll see meaningful class changes” but that week never comes. Consistently now for the last 5 years the only buffs ive seen frost dk get are very small % buffs on abilities that already do virtually no damage at all. Or even worse absolutely INSANE and HUGE nerfs on abilities that didnt need it

Even if they do actually buff DK, Do you guys honestly expect them to not nerf it back into the dirt? Lets be real here, Because every single time DK ever gets to a point where it will be highly competitive or good, its gutted into the ground. The start of this expansion is a prime example of that, They preemptively gutted our class before the season even started, before the raid was even released. Before we got to play any legitimate content our class got gutted. They do this to us literally every single expansion it feels like so how much more of it are you going to deal with before enough is enough

theres a mod for torch light II DK its pretty cool
also a mod for divinity sin 2 that has a DK
also also i think Skyrim had a mod for one

I was legitimately surprised that the buff did close to nothing. C’mon blizzard, make soul reaper really good on oblit frost dk. Literally the best time for it in a really single target focused raid

I mean im unsubbed it ends in 9 days

But till then its feedback

If only Rot and Wither made Death and Decay an aura - along with an increased healing absorbtion percentage - it would be pretty fun for Unholy with Defile.

To enjoy the plate class fantasy, warrior or pally seems the way to go. Going toe to toe, they typically have 20% more health left when my UDK is out. And it always seems to be an effortless battle. At least what I perceive through the lens of the DK playstyle compared to war/ret.

You do realize that every class goes through this, and then gets fixed, right? And that you can actually play other classes besides DK, right?

If you’re going to quit, quit. No one wants to hear it.

You realize that frost DK goes through it 10x more often than any other spec, And takes 10x longer to get “fixed” and then gets preemptively nerfed before the season even begins

Can and want are completely different. I dont want to play those other boring lame specs i want to play the spec i always played frost, and the class i always played, DK

When i talk about quitting on the forums its not for individuals like you to see or care about, its a message to the developers that they wont be getting money from me anymore

Why would i care if you care that im quitting thats just silly

Bold of you to assume Blizzard actually cares about anything but making money on their games now. We have the OW2 pve removal drama, the Diablo Immortal monetization drama, the D4 waiting until after they raked in the preorders to announce the battle pass etc. Blizzard just aint it anymore.

thats exactly why im not going to give them anymore money, They dont deserve it and i hope that company starves out and dies

Maybe microsoft will actually put the money forward for a proper development team that actually cares, but i wont care until i see it happen

Frost DK has been down more than Ret paladins? Survival hunters? Guardian druids?
