Nerf DW UNholy DK in Phase 3

Hi blizzard, DW Unholy DK already cringed their way for two phases now, so for Phase 3 Change Scourge Strike to ONLY BE ABLE TO CAST WITH A 2H Weapon, or even better add a passive to the Unholy spec that says YOU CAN’T DUAL WIELD. It’s time for Unholy spec to be properly played with a 2h weapon and stop the cringe playstyle they’ve been using for the past 6 months.

Thanks in advance.

Can you please link a log where a DW unholy DK is using scourge strike? Thanks.

  1. They already nerfed unholy.
  2. No one uses scourge strike with dual wield. Your suggested restriction would make no difference on the game what so ever.
  3. You’re not required to use this meta game build to raid. I personally raid as an unholy death knight and I use a worldcarver. I have no plans to ever dual wield unholy.

You’re welcome.
:axe:

Look at you and the other clueless player… so cute but let me enlighten you. DW will go 1 point in scourge strike next phase just to proc the buff of Phase 3 Sigil of Virulence and get the extra +200 strength, by doing the change I request DW players will be forced to stop the cringe play style and have no other choice but play Unholy as it should be with a 2H weapon, plain and simple.

Seriously think before typing casuals.

pretty sure unholy scales like crap in phase 4, so highly unlikely they will nerf it ever. I saw a single target sim for phase 4 and 5 and unholy dw was literally at the bottom. Most will go frost or switch to war

Didn’t know that. But anyway…

No one cares about UNH because frost is going to be better anyway.

Blizzard outright stated in wrath that every dk spec was made to work with either 2h or 1h weps. So you calling it cringe is the only cringe thing here.

If you want unholy to be a 2h spec only show something from classic that shows that was the design intent as otherwise just since people tended to use a 2h wep back than dosent make that the way it’s meant to be played or the way it should be played it only means that was the way those in the old days played it which hate to break it to you every single spec in the game for the most part is being played differently than in og. There is nothing wrong with that as they are still within their design intent like unholy is.

Your Sigil issues means exactly nothing. It won’t be the first time people add a abilty to there rotation to trigger an effect than not use untill that effect needs to be renewed in fact it’s super common eg warriors only sunder to maintain sunder it’s kinda the point of most buff/debuff skills to maintain those not to spam them. The Sigil just makes SS a buff skill.

You are the one that needs to think before they type. You have given nothing as any valid reason to do what you ask.

My favorite thing is when people arrogantly correct other people… while being absolutely 100% completely wrong themselves.

Even with sigil, its still not worth to run SS. And it’s definitely not worth it to run 2h. Trad morb sims better in WOtlk right up until scourcemourne.

Try again. Casual

If SS was going to be good at any point in classic wrath you might have a point. Sadly all you’re doing is dancing on the grave of 2H SS builds from earlier in OG wrath.

Current competitive UH builds do not take SS and a sigil isn’t changing that due to SS just being a bad ability.

That Sims website you all use is bad btw, no wonder it’s in beta and it’s not as reliant as raidbots

Try again casual

that will come once we reach Classic Legion

It’s because Sarthe released a video a couple days ago for unh dk bis using scourge strike and now people are going to blindly follow it.

Apparently in absolutely perfect conditions it sims ~.5-1% better single-target. I doubt it’s enough to really matter in practice.

WTF there shouldn’t be any changes to class balance in Classic.

What even is this thread?
