Questions on Ghouls

Classes Death Knight
1
  1. Ghoul has a Stun, 1 second(Gnaw). Do the ghouls from Apoclypse or Army of the Dead have this same stun? or just the leap and attack.
  2. All will Serve. does this ghoul also have the stun?
  3. How much dmg output does Gargoyle have vs the magi. (not seeing any numbers on these on wowhead, or in game)
  4. Death and Decay Trait gives +7 targets for clawing strikes, and keep that ability for 4 seconds after leaving death and decay. Defile gives +7 targets while in it. but without the 4 seconds. If i take Defile without the death and decay trait, will i lose the +7? (and if not, why are there 2 traits that give same bonus. does it stack? )
    -i ask cause Traits and skills work odd in thsi game…Rogue Garrote says in skill it silences enemy if used from stealth, but that only works if you got the trait…even though skill says it (Iron Wire) so i suspicious of what does what.
  5. Vampiric Strike (from San’layn) occasionally replaces clawing shadows. Clawing shadows benefits from “hit 7 if in defile/D&D”
    does Vampiric Strike get that same benefit? and does Vampiric Strike break festerign wounds?

ty!

  1. only the main ghoul has a stun
  2. all will serve is an archer, who also does not have a stun
  3. Gargoyle is pretty low damage atm especially with such a long cooldown, the magi isn’t amazing damage but can be specced to do AOE as well.
  4. Death and decay and defile have the same behavior with the cleave lasting an extra 4 seconds, but only if you walk out while the dnd/defile still has duration, the cleave goes away when the dnd/defile goes away.
  5. Vampiric strike does benefit from the AOE from dnd/defile, vampiric strike does break festering wounds like the scourge strike/clawing shadows it is replacing.

sweet ty!
time to replace death and decay…grr what i wouldnt give to use hero talent points in normal skill tree. so many options

also bit sad that “All will serve” is just a tiny archer…talk about unappealing T.T
was hoping for 2 ghouls to rotate stuns

just want to say as a vet player these r real good questions, and great examples of tool tips that need clarification. I wouldnt hav known the answer to any of these either if i hadnt been playing dk for 18 years.
