Seems death grip hits through grounding totem again. Bummer
I hope this is a bug.... Cuz it's gonna be a pain in arenas.
noticed this myself, its most likely a bug.
I'm more worried about Priests on MY team life gripping me in BG's :D Like at start of EOTS or AV etc.
I believe it's this glyph:
Glyph of Resilient Grip
Minor Glyph
Classes: Death Knight
Requires Level 55
Item Level 55
Use: Permanently teaches you this glyph.
When your Death Grip ability fails because its target is immune, its cooldown is reset.
Sell Price: 1
Theres no way in hell that would be the purpose of a minor glyph lol. If a minor glyph makes a spell over-ride the effect of grounding totem, I'd be pissed.Quote:

its not the glyph atm, deathgrip just ignores the grounding totem(s)
When it stops ignoring grounding totems I'd assume DG spam will penetrate our grounding totems after 5-6 presses.
You will never be able to spam DG, grounding totem doesn't make your target immune, its just a buffer.
that would be too overpoweredQuote:

I'll test it tonight and let you know for sure. :)
Dude that would be funny as hell man. A dk dgs your grounding and ur totem brings him to u for magma totems and earthquake times 5. Imagine the pissed off person on that dk when he gets raped cause he got brought into you. Fail at that dg to his team but he comes to mine haha.
I can assure you, pre-patch, when you death grip a grounding totem your combat log will readQuote:

I'm suspecting this wasn't a bug, blue's stated many moons ago that grounding totems eating physical spells wasn't intended. Death Grip's effect has always been classified as physical, so I think this was a fix. I've noticed they're not absorbing HoJ's and I don't *think* it's soaking Repentence. I think glyphed or not, we're open to DGs now - and frankly, I'd rather have that happen that have a DK be able to wipe out my groundings by button mashing (which, btw, right now that glyph is bugged).
You can see the link to the old PTR post - since that forum is purged often.

I tested it last night with and without glyph. Deathgrip now ignores grounding totems.
On wowhead, death grip is listed as a physical spell, so if that's the case, they've changed it from magical and it's working as intended.
The glyph is more for the retards who DG bubbled / iceblocked people and now they get to do it again soon as it wears off !
edit: nvm, didn't read what zappy said
This is a sad sad day :(
Stop giving me bad news Alemi, next thing ur gonna tell is the pretty light the druids casts are suppose to silence me and not them putting a spot light on me cuz I'm doing good. The silence part is a bug right?
Clearly
