Blood DK and DRW

Hello guys,

Do you thinks blizzard need to make DRW off GCD ?

Just a quick question, not trying to disturbe someone :wink:

Cheers mate.

Well… Sure Why not? Anything isn’t on the GCD is a bonus to the rotation.
Although i don’t find it extremely significant either in this case :upside_down_face:

blood dk has the issue that when starting the fight if nothing is up it takes a boatload of damage, i.e. it needs ramp up before being fully effective, drw off gcd could help somewhat

its a Deathknight thing that - we always took heavy damage at pull with little mitigation, keeps the healers on their toes.

But in reality BDK is a nightmare for healers in a sense, because for preference you will chain pull to be more efficient and its not soo much the healer who will OOM but the caster DPS

All about balance - I think BDK may be a little OP in Solo content just now, if slower

It’s been a topic for like 3 expansions now. I doubt they will do it, even if it makes no sense to have it on the GCD. It doesn’t even fit their own criteria for having a cooldown on the GCD.

  • Must be an offensive CD
  • Must deal damage when activating it

Now you could argue that it’s both an offensive and defensive CD, but it doesn’t deal any damage when activated. Hence it shouldn’t have a gcd, but then again a lot of stuff that Blizzard does makes no sense.
