Blood DK is about the feeling of being unstoppable. If your enemies don’t have the raw power to keep you down, you will never falter and forever tear the enemy up.

Protection warrior… is about being unstoppable :slight_smile:
They really do play similar, but the difference is the prot warrior shrugs off the enemy like it’s nothing, while the blood DK simply sustains itself through the enemy’s punishment.

I play both and i find them both fun to play. Blood DKs take a lot more dmg and i honestly find it a lot more stressfull when your hp bar jojos up and down, especially if u run out of rp for death strike to heal yourself. On skittish weaks dks have huge issues in threat generation due to the lower aoe dmg. Warriors dmg intake is a lot smoother and lower with less self healing. I like this more cause ur hp bar is a lot more consistant plus u have the option to basically say yeah im going to reduce my dmg intake down to more or less zero for a bit. Plus the dmg that prot warriors provide is nice.
I feal like the nerf to the range of caster reaping mobs really reduced the one big advantage that blood dks had over prot warriors.
Tl;Dr: Blood DK more jojo-y but less healer reliant, Prot warrior a lot lower dmg intake, higher dmg but more reliance on healer

Would you trust a tank that is already dead before he even pulls? Me neither.
