This person is mainly right. You know flavor. You play pvp and understand why we want a variety of tools in our arsenal. You understand fun. A lot of these players playing this game are bad, and have no flavor and have no idea what fun is. Thats why they should just sit there and be the result of the changes and shut up. And I dont think blizzard listens to them anyway.
They really want us to have 4 buttons and be happy. Its ridiculous. More tools to use in your toolkit is fun.
And they flooded Blizzard with “we want 2h” and even some of those people didnt care if there was a dps difference. So I really dont know what you are talking about, not to mention this thread is pointing out other specs are seeing changes and not frost. Its because people flooded the forums and twitter with “we want 2h frost”. You had a thread trying to talk about the spec? It became a 2h spec where people said that was more important.
People got what they asked for.
You also have absolutely no reason to think 2h would out perform DW. Are you the one that said they would do stuff for 2h when DK’s would be added to the Torghast testing? If so… how did that go?
Yes, 2h people, on average, wanted 2h and nothing else. Its been said to me multiple times. They dont care about dps, they want the aesthetics, let other people worry about balance.
I didnt say you got what you deserved, I said they got what they asked for. They asked for the option and they got it. In case you havent noticed, the same people that were asking for 2h arent asking for it to be balanced because they arent posting anymore.
Oh, and look, maybe they should have listened to me because 2h is DoA instead of pointing at ilvl, or what I have done, or insulting others and getting themselves banned. 2h is hot garbage right now and if alpha is any indication, and what classes they are actually making changes to which were just broken classes that just didnt work, then its probably not going to get any attention. They cant just do what they did with fury, they would basically have to change the entire spec for a weapon set.
Because blizz is well known for their great balancing. Plus if they do put any effort on frost dk it will be making 2 hander not play like shi*** instead of fixing general core issues. Congratz on fixing frost DK with a cosmetic option.
The thing is, the changes needed to make 2h frost viable are easily implemented.
You could literally modify the 2h runes and they wouldn’t be imbalanced because they wouldn’t affect blood or unholy.
Same for the issue with KM procs.
So for Blizzard not to do anything is literally a matter of laziness.
Everything points to them not doing anything for it. They would seriously need to do a spec overhaul. With the specs focus on auto attacks in multiple ways, DW is going to be better.
People think “oh its easy to fix”… if thats the case why was it never fixed since wrath? The design you are seeing now, its basically Wrath, they did nothing for 2h then. MotFW was a band aid resulting in a HUGE damage buff to counteract what DW gets over 2h. 35% melee damage and 50% obliterate damage that resultedin 85% obliterate damage and that was before KM was based off of auto crits.
You have constantly said since 2h was announced that something would come for 2h, werent you the one that said DK being released to Torghast would bring 2h balance? And what happened then? You have been wrong so far and all that Blizzard has been doing is fixing broken specs. If you want to do damage then you go DW, if you want to RP and do world content you can go 2h. There is absolutely no reason that would put any effort into 2h. Its a non issue and I can point to a more significant issue going into shadowlands, the covenant system and the last tier of talents.
