Necrotic Strike’s Necrotic Wound now absorbs 5% of the target’s maximum health in healing received (was 7%).
-
The melee attack damage and attack speed of the Raise Abomination guardian has been decreased by 30%.
Actually a big deal. UDK all about necrotic strike and abom burst, very big nerf. But 5% buff will help me in M+ keys yey!

Why do they nerf def traits instead of just reverting the blanket nerf to offensive traits?
Well the thing is frost dk is a damage bot. It has literally nothing else than damage and now guess what: The damage is actually pretty damn low
because people need less selfhealing
Arms has promblem with his rotation since the beggining of the xpansion GCD changes OP replaced CS CS replaced recklessness and recle removed from arms Tactician affects OP which increases only the dmg of MS cleave became talent in the same row with the artefact ability WB shockwave removed rend rage cost increased no passive to reduce the cost of MS lack of sustained combat healing(back to classic) opportunity strikes removed and around 20% of our dmg is a stupid mastery bleed effect… but we are the hard hitting spec I don’t expect any QOL changes for arms war as they have announce that reworks in the middle of an expansion is a jarring experience for them at least these minor buffs give me hope to continue to play arms
Fury has nothing else but damage, and it was viable in S2 and still somewhat in S3.
I know a guy who’s still playing frost DK in glad bracket successfully.
lol destro buffs. its okay, we can just afk behind the pillar til 90% dampening and then try to kill the warlock!
Think outlaw nerf is maybe like 10% of my damage reduced, not 100% sure. Wish they’d just ban class stacking on mdi; i dont wanna have to play assa everywhere in this game :S
imagine buying wow for the first time and u pick between dh, dk or monk.

Just when you think blizzard devs couldn’t be anymore useless…
How can you justify nerfing UH to the ground but buffing destro by 5% i’m absolutely flabbergasted, as recently discussed atleast 50% arguably more of Unholy DK damage comes from Necrotic, that poxy 5% increase to everything else is nothing short of pointless… oh wait PvE 
Necromancer’s bargain can replace abo imo (not a dk expert) but the necro nerf looks like a big deal indeed.
Just when you thought the game couldn’t get any worse
" * *Developers’ notes: Arms Warrior, Destruction Warlock, Frost Death Knight and Unholy Death Knight are generally underperforming and could use a damage increase." There’s no way this is real lmfao
only real part in that is frost dk lol
This is the second time both necro and abom got nerfed hard, I think necro used to be 9% or 10% but got nerfed to 7% and now its getting a second nerf this expansion, abom already got nerfed by 35% or 30% and now its getting another nerf to total of 60%-65%.

I really don’t understand why nerf DKs only, but buff destro even more. I think all their changes are PVE orientated and at this point they couldn’t care less how they affect arena give how few people play arena in the first place.

So it’s actually a good change since it is as retarded as destro CB.
Also it should be like how it was, to use scourge strike when the target has higher percentage of hpnand necro only when it’s low to create actual pressure.
Tbh can’t get that 5% DMG buff while literally nothing compensation for their passive tankyness and retarded DMG.
Blizzard Devs overdid themselves again
They weren’t bad at all in m+ so there’s no reason for those buffs
Arms didn’t need buffs at all. They are already over the top since the last set of changes.
