My Frost DK is not doing good damage with 2H weapon

This is a post I’m creating to possibly help other frost DKs in The War Within 11.2 patch.

If you are using a 2H weapon and your Damage seems very, very low, especially to what you may be simulating at, make sure you *ARE NOT T-MOGING YOUR 2H TO LOOK LIKE YOUR LEGION ARTIFACT WEAPONS

No I’m not trolling - if you T-mog your 2H wep to look like your legion artifact dual wielding weapons, there is a bug that makes your Obliterate hit for literally 0.

Example, I was simmed for doing 3.4M single target but I was only doing 1.4M single target. I was using the DW artifact T mog. It was told to me on the DK Discord from wow head this might be an issue if I was, so I change the tmog, go to the training dummy, and to my astonishment, I was suddenly doing 3.1M single target.

If you aren’t using the t mog and your single target is still low then sorry, keep trying and learning. But I was plagued by this cause I was beating everyone in AoE, but hitting like a pool noodle in single target even though I was following the rotation and priority as flawless as possible.

So hopefully this helps anyone that googles why… and Blizz, FIX THIS PLEASE

Thank you for this. I had done this exact same thing and have been wracking my brains all week trying to figure out what was wrong. I ended up deleting my wtf and cache folders, thus resetting my profile and still no go. I was going nuts fighting with this versus pushing keys all week at the start of a new season. I transmogged my weapon back to a two hander and everything is back to normal. What a weird thing to have happen. I swear I’ve lost 30-40 hours to this silly thing so far.

Still not fixed, hey? Bugger.

I wonder if this is related to 2H artifact weapons being moggable on 1h weapons, on other classes?

I have a Monk, I swap him between WW and BrM, regularly.

He has two 1H weapons, but I keep him transmogged to his 2H BrM staff from Legion.

Even as WW, I could use that mog, and with two weapons no less.

As of 11.2, I was no longer able to do this, unless I am in BrM spec.

Could be related?

Some weird transmog thing, for sure.

It’s straight-up not letting me mog like before, but damage is unaffected.

Needs fixed!

LOLOLOLOLOL… good job Blizz.

Did you make a bug report? That’s important to do too!

This is probably WAI, since it is an active nerf to DKs, blizzards favorite class to nerf
