Havoc Dh is too weak

Hey Blizz, what are you doing? Havoc needs some love and you guys are just going to make Havoc not viable anymore. If you are a DH lover and want Blizzard to fix this class, post in this thread and give some good ideas so we can give the devs some support. Come up with resolutions not complaints. Thanks!

My proposal would be:
Nerf The Hunt crit multiplier by 20%.
That would make the average Hunt damage from 8k to a maximum of 15k on a crit against a target with no defensives up. Which would leave room for the below buffs.
Add Fire Damage to DH Mastery.
This would buff our baseline damage, in a controllable fashion.
Convert Fel Blade to Fire/Chaos Damage.
Currently Shadow Damage, which has no relevance to DH and is an obvious random damage type. No other damage from a DH is Shadow. As with the above it would also scale with Mastery.
Make DH untargetable during Netherwalk.
Thematically, this makes sense as it’s meant to be us slipping ‘into the Nether’… And being rooted/stunned during this time by a targetted CC is a bit wrong imo - AoE CC can still hit for balance purposes.
Darkness should be 50% baseline for the DH, and 20% for allies.
Still scaling to 70% for all allies and the DH via the PvP Talent.
Remove Desperate Instincts, put Blur to 25% baseline and add a new talent for that row.
Now that we have the Darkness Legendary, this talent is pretty irrelevant.
Demonic & First Blood baseline.
We all know this one. It’s an obvious and highly required change.
Chaos Theory should proc on Eye Beam.
100% proc chance, however put the time down to 4 seconds. This would allow us to actually plan our damage rotation ahead of time, instead of relying on a 30% proc chance.
Metamorphasis 3min CD.
I’m surprised I even have to put this one, when Avenging Wrath is a 2min CD and in my mind is more powerful that Metamorphasis - especially given that we have to pick Netherwalk instead of our Leech talent nowadays with such a bursty pvp meta.

I’m not suggesting they implement ALL of the above, even though the DH in me would love it. These are just a few of my suggestions!
