Well, let me ask you this.

  1. do you have pvp gear?
  2. did u play with your talents at all?
  3. do u know your rotation?

and lastly,

the class is dead, because it’s called death knight.

I will agree whole heartedly. Frost DK has been on the decline since BFA>DF Legion was the last time I actually played it for any decent stretch of time. Now everyone Including myself is either Blood or Unholy.But those who stuck to Frost I applaud your persaverance.

The cheese one shot was fun for a while, but I would love a more consistent tankier PvP profile.

No they dont. If you meant to say they are the most annoying damage dealers in the game due to interrupts/cc interrupts. Then yes, you are right…

If youre having troubles as a mage thats a skill issue big time

Facts, Plate brawler… Not Icy sub rogue

FDK 10000% needs a rework, PvE and PvP, Im tired of only being viable from raw tuning or super gimmicky niches, Constant bandaid changes to mask and cover up the crippling backwards design flaws our spec has. Our completely hollow talent trees

End of WoD was such a sweet spot for Fdk pvp. You felt scary as hell, amazing burst, frost strike hit hard and fast. You had a few tools to slow and root, as well as a faster grip.

Death strike was a perfect surv trade off for damage too.

I just don’t get it. Clearly they don’t play their own game, this has been known, but like… its 2023, you should have at least one dev working on EVERY class for PvP and PvE.

Empower rune weapon being a 2m cd in pvp, And a capstone talent, but only giving 5% haste is actually incrediblely bad

they just dont know what theyre doing with dk

All 3 general tree capstones are underwhelming. If they made abom limb allow you to grip your weapon back to you after being disarmed then it might be a pretty decent pick.

For those at the back since this point needs to be addressed. A 2min CD for 5% haste as a capstone talent, pathetic and a sick joke. Abom limb is now such a shadow of its former self in pvp too. It’s a Rime generator to me now and not much else. Soul reaper needs a function change not more damage and for the love of all things unholy at a bare bare barebones minimum make it undispellable.

Preach it.

They should remove all damage from Abom Limb, shuffle it into our diseases (5k ticks in 750k health pools…) and make it a 1 min CD.

Abom limb should grip everyone in a 8-20 yard range with no limitation ( that 1 grip per player nonsense) so there is an actual counter to eternal mage blinks in this game.

Would be a change only useful for pvp, but it would definitely make abom limb more appealing thats for sure

Should perphaps be an honor talent thats a 45s cd just like disarms

Soul reaper is terrible in its current form for mulitple reasons. Hopefully blizzard makes any of the suggested changes so its not a completely dead capstone outside of specifically unholy raid single target.

its been one month since dks received any changes on PTR.

the longer they wait, the more likely we go live as is, and frankly I expect we will.

It feels like we are going live as is, with no major changes, no look at our numerous dead or underwhelming talent options in all three specs, no look at our 7 out of 8 dead rune options (choose crusader weapon or be sad).

But we are expected to be happy because STR legendary.
