Frost dk needs nerfed

I must be overcapping by about 200% resources at this point, frost has gotten seriously overpowered and needs to be nerfed.

I totally agree. Doing damage as frost is unacceptable, especially during PoF/Obliteration. Please nerf.

Frost’s role isn’t to deal damage but to make ice cream, everyone knows that. Idk what the devs were thinking smh.

This thread is clearly a bait, but tbf overcapping runic power is a slight problem. It does not make FDK more powerful and the resource management should not be more difficult either, however, we are missing tools to spend that extra runic power effective way. I hope that will get some attention in future.

Wait, what is frost? Are you pretending that DK has a third spec?
I think you got lost and meant to post this in mage forum.

You need it in PvP to be able to self heal …

third? you mean second, right? DK has one spec, Unholy lol

:clown_face:

Do you guys not have runes of hysteria?

It is true that in PvP Runic Power is not that easily gapped because of use of Death Strike, however, in PvE there is no effective ability to spend RP, and that is a problem. Good example is Unholy’s Epidemic which is a good AoE RP spender and also a baseline ability, that is what Frost is missing.

It was nice idea to add more runes, but unfortunately the old runes are still the best ones in most cases, especially in PvE. There is some use for new runes in PvP or at least people could change their weapons (which have different runes) in lobby just before fight, if they have several weapons to swap with.

It is kinda dependant on covenant too, the venthyr can utilise that runic power alot faster.

My gripe with this tho is that the rune buff is not under the potency conduit which would of been perfect.

Never, frost dk is back where it deserves.

Venthyr actually increases the Runic Power generation even more and if you are not playing BoS build then you are overcapping RP even more easily than usual. I do not personally like how Venthyr class ability pigeon holes people to play BoS, the ability should be more universal from playstyle pov.

and despite it been the lowest from the 2 specs (tank is not a dps spec) im gone hold on to frost its the one i like the most and unholy is just not my thing try’d it and way to many buttons cooldowns for my likings but this is a personal preference.

keep in mind, breath builds would benefit more from necrolord and its ability to pull in targets to maintain the breath on them.

The venthyr are just the best however because the haste buff lets you consume resources alot faster periodically while being extremely versatile with the teleport/cc and increased power generation to either attack or death strike with.

Literally every class and spec, venthyr is the best due to how their abilities and soulbinds work.

I am not sure from where you get your information, but Necrolords is perhaps the weakest option for BoS build of all the covenants. Moreover, what haste buff you are talking about? At least the Venthyr covenant ability Swarming Mist does not give you any haste buffs. Furthermore, Venthyr is not the best option for every class and specs, not even close.

he is talking about the soulbind that gives 20% haste at 40stacks

BoS Delenda Est.

memes aside i think everyone would benefit with a redesign in how BoS functions, or even a complete rework or removal, set duration etc and such if it calls or it.

The venthyr first soulbind gives you a buff that grants 20% haste at set periods of time.

So not only does it get the best class and signature ability but also has one of the best traits on top of all that.

Aa okay, so we are talking about Nadjia’s Thrill Seeker ability. That is unfortunately not enough to help with the RP overcapping because it is not always combined with CDs and even it would be it is still not a rainmaker.
