Its easier to bring one down than boost 5 others. But fine double the healing of every other tank spec make them unkillable while doing huge damage while pressing 1 button
Especially now they can probably get 50-60% haste they just gunna spam heartstrike ftw
Should nerf Gavel by 25% and Self healing by 25%

Not ecactly a good example, i can easily doo that by shifing out of bear during her casting times and heal too full. Kinda bad example.
Every tank but a Warrior if they know how to aptly time their cooldowns properly. Losing people in that fight also means that you get access to more orbs to reduce the overall AoE damage people take.
No if they nerf Blood DK then you wont be able to buy a 3 key which is one level above what you did on that toon already.
Nope.
Every single tank but blood dk will eventually die to iron spikes.
Has nothing to do with the aoe burst. I never took orbs as a tank in that fight.
And as youâre a druid. You know, I know, everyone knows that you cannot survive that boss fight without a healer. Dont even pretend at this point.
Donât agree.
Blood DK is such a terribly designed spec. If they get nerfed, theyâll be back to being useless. The spec needs an overhaul. Even now, when you run it in high keys (24+) mis timing a single global means unquestionable death - this has never been the case for any other tank.
the spec needs to be changed. Mitigation through healing is fine, but when your health ping pongs every second unless you can maintain a buff for 100% of a pull by spamming a damage ability, thatâs bad design.
That all said, Iâd like to see other tanks brought to DKs level. Tanking is the most stressful and frustrating job in M+, seeing tank specs not great when there are so few of them just makes me question what the developers are doing
Maybe that is you playing a druid, but Iâve done it quite a number of times. In fact there have been a number of times where it was me and 1 dps and we both survived the last 30-40% of the fight without a healer, with me healing them and myself.
Itâs doable if you know your toolkit.
People who arenât getting invited because other miserable people want free carries from meta specs.
The set bonus got turned into a DF talent, I believe. So youâll be carrying this into 10.0
But I like being stronk 
Donât nerf us, itâs fun having Blood DK be strong again. Havenât had a good iteration of BDK since end of Legion/S1 of BFAâŚ
Reminder: DK is fine. L2P

Strong is different than unkillable. fine with them being S tier just not S++++ tier
And guess blizz wants me to play got a stupid gavel in my 4 mytrhic dungeon loot box. Half tempted to just delete it.
y nerf instead of make others better. if they nerf them theyâre useless in raid. let them be strong in 5 man content.
Blood was my favorite tank in season 2. I really donât like the interaction with the set bonus, so itâs kinda killed it for me the last 2 seasons, but itâs at least 2 letter grades above the next best tank, so I feel compelled to play it, even though itâs not fun.
Iâm just looking for a little motivation to keep waking up every day. Why does it have to be this way?
BDK was trash in BFA and up till Season 3 in Shadowlands.
It was great in early BFA

No, theyâre really not. Take away CRW and their tier set and blood isnât even being played. Theyâre literally being propped up by gear at this point, but nerfing either the legendary or their tier set in the wrong manner will also screw them.
The problem is that blood dk is the worst tank spec in the game. Itâs only strong because the tier set. Without that, it goes back to being the worst spec in the game.
Overall if you look at average scores since the history of m+, blood dk is the worst. They desperately need a complete redesign from the ground up.
