Somehow dk managed to catch a nerf

Seriously doesn’t do anything at all against the absurd mobility of ww or warrior that have infinite gap closers.

Look man I’ve been designated by the forums as the #1 warrior hater and even I’m saying your being dumb here.

And it doesn’t really matter cause your trying to talk about a class you don’t even play and tell me how its so broken meanwhile its like maybe #3 now and still got nerfed meanwhile warrior somehow got buffed and ww went untouched. there isn’t really a justification for that

I’ve dabbled, I’ve also played this class off and on for a very long time lol.

Mages actually have the best snares lol.

Main reason you never see DK with a semi sqishy low cc caster is exactly because chains isn’t reliable, even in WOD with roots on it it was still easy for a warrior team to destroy Maldevia on his lock at BlizzCon.

The mobility arms race has advanced considerably since then. Not that that should hinder your ability to troupe lol.

this is always such a brain dead pseudo “gotcha”

necrotic aura was a fine tool to make unholy desirable before they did the most damage in the game

you wanna go back to pre rework to keep necrotic aura unchanged?

They reworked the damage because DK was literally unplayable due to most things being good PvE but terrible for PvP.

Why pick either or? You are weirdly here arguing without proper arguments.

Relax.

you don’t really have a point but you’re also explaining yourself with the grace of a gorilla

dk comps are over performing what do you mean
dkaug and spriestdk are insane

your question is just “why nerf dk” and the answer is because it’s overtuned ???

tho the argument that necrotic wasn’t an issue when it was a bandaid applied to a struggling class that has since been redesigned and is no longer struggling is stupid

Sorry if logic hurts you so bad lol. Stay :snowflake::snowflake:
Dk aren’t doing the most either. Not by a long shot. Ww, spriest, Devoker, mages, affy, boomie all doing more.

That was an amazing gotcha btw. Neco aura was team utility, not a bandaid.

cooked career 1600 dk take thank u

Why take a DK when arms, fury , rets, or WW provide similar/better damage with better utility or MS.

The core issue being discussed here is that there’s bias present against DKs being nerfed unnecessarily while having s**t defensives.

This is what happened in season 1, small nerfs came in and DK was literally unplayable after couple weeks in to the season.

Literally no DK played if they wanted to keep their R1 title in shuffle because you weren’t going to win due to how undertuned everything was.

There are so many good answers to this question

Dk has a ton of unique upsides over every other melee

Tbf SL s3/4 were pretty bad for Arms, everybody avoided me like the plague when I said I wasn’t fury.

DK also has a unique downside of not being able to do much against other melees as a melee.

Playing unholy into both specs warriors/WW is a form of torture. Playing frost into it is depressing.

That is a lie in several ways

Which part do you disagree with?

Do you not agree with DK being one of the most squishiest class in the game right now?

There’s also a skill capped video on this as well.

Hi all - legit bad DK here (messing around on Frost some). So many saying you can just chains a WW or Warrior and kite them. Now, with the warrior, if I catch them without mobility and I use chains I can keep them off me for a moment. However, with WW, how does that work?? The rolls, tiger’s lust, punch charge, etc make it hard. So how do you kite them? Chains and LOS around a pillar?

It doesn’t work despite what all these people who don’t even play the class will tell you

You are more likely to get kited by the WW than the other way around rofl
