I am tired of mentioning this sad truth day by day yet Blizzard seems as if they just do not care. Not only the class has been awfully designed but also it is the worst option you could ever pick for PvP. We have lost too many significant abilities over the years and every aspect of our class is nerfed into oblivion, even back in BfA the unholy spec was only ever viable just because corruptions carried us and now since we are through with them… we are at this very moment the worst of the worst pvp wise. As every single soul who plays this game knows that DKs have only one true defensive ( especially against melee ) which makes the class unique and it is called Death Strike which is nerfed into the ground and is useless. I truly do not understand why Blizzard all of a sudden nerfed our only way to defend ourselves one day for it is an ability which is easily countered by almost every class in WoW. I am not even going to talk about getting our presences back… Could you imagine a paladin without auras? or a warrior who cannot change stances? I could not but it seems that Blizzard is okay with taking our presences away from us which is absolutely disgusting. We also lack too much execution damage which goes against this one or two shot meta which we are having right now. Just look at our Necrotic Strike… I won’t waste my breath talking about it once again… Just imagine playing a Death Knight, having the worst mobility and survivability and also on top of it all, dealing the least damage compared to all classes.
The survivability would need to be unnerfed for sure, I’d like my old DS back so that I don’t feel forced to swap out my big D weapon for a lower ilvl one with rune of sanguination on it just to live certain classes’ burst.
Burst and setup damage is good, very good atm but that’s kind of also the problem. It’s easy to avoid, especially since people know what’s about to happen when they all get pulled in and aoe stunned. After that setup, you’re pretty much useless damage wise.
Simple, don’t play the game. I’m only doing caps by now, and if the Class doesn’t get any attention, I just simply won’t play the game BFA season 1 all over again.
I wouldnt mind a small DK buff. although i really hate unholy summing 50x pets that fill up your screen and make it all a zerg fest. never liked too many pets in arena
I personally hate this zombie spec that unholy has become. They should remove over half of the damage from pets and give it back to the dk so that you feel like you did the damage and not some NPC…
Spaming NS was fun for ya? Idk, its the worst and boring thing i ever met in my entire game experience in any game, 1 iq mechanic. Hope its never ever be viable again and will be deleted. Thats why i preffer don’t play PvP on UDK since i start to play this class. But its only my opinion.
I’m still slowly gearing up to start my push in January, but I heard that we basically need three weapons for the optimal rune usage: one for razorice, one for sanguination and one for spellwarding. Is that true? Because that’s just insane.
BFA season 1 all over again.
