DKs Take Zero Skill

Not sure of any other 5box DK groups that have cleared a Heroics.

[nirita]

thanks zero exactly what i wanted and very well done i must say

May want to think about adding a healer in that 5th spot. Currently DK's teams are clearing heroics due to stacking aura's and blood taps with glyphs. I believe the stacking aura's are going away in the upcoming patch so having the healer will make things a little easier.

[Multibocks]

stacking blood aura's are not gone, however a lot of avoidance has been removed from DKs and it will make heroics harder.

Yeah, they are going to keep the Stack, but it's not going to show in the buff bar.

We are losing tankage, but, I will have gear to compensate by the time that happens, so I don't know how that will affect the people running their DK groups who have not gotten to the Heroics.

I haven't given much thought to specs/gear/anything with the new patches, but I will just roll with the punches and see what happens...

If we get shafted with tankage, then I have a back up healer, or a back up group to run if I really get worked... (5* Paladins).

Or I can just spec DPS and run 25 mans and PVP the hell out of people. I got my name out there with doing the 40man, and got a few people wanting to run with me and begging me to run stuff with them because of my DK group is (OP) lol..

Go nerfing the *hero class* why do they introduce this then cut them down. Is it because of all the other tanks not feeling atiquite now or what. I have tanked on a warrior druid and now dk. Ok yes we can deal with magic better then any other tank but you know what we dont get the massive increase that druids get or the added block and stats a shield gives you. I just got halfway done gearing my dk tank and saw this and was like omfg r u kidding me. People need to stop complaining in the blizzard forumns its a hero class for a reason they wont be that for much longer if they nerf the dk. We will be brought right down to the same lvl as all the other classes. First nerf they killed our dps and obliterate now they nerf our tanking. In pvp is still pretty bad i mean clothies wipe the floor with me. Its called fear kite fire from distance grr grr n grr. I mean we got dg oh yey pull them in chains of ice we get stunned they run away fire from distance or knock us back. I dont see how they are really that OP. Ive done my instances with my 5 dk's but against fear spam frost novas stuns we aint that op in bg's. Specially fear all a lock needs to do is dc on of our alts then howl of terror and fear dot all of our toons and thats the end of that. So i think blizzard really needs to stop nerfing the hero class and leave us where we are. Nerf the hunters and op explosive shot and locks and the amount of dots they can put on u. I mean 6 dots from one lock with a fear i go from 23k hp to less then 5 before i even leave fear. KInda annoying if u cant enjoy the fight. Yes i use lichborne but only last 20 secs with 3 min cd. Wish they would lower the cd for us to say 2 mins like the trinket. But enough rambling imma go get sheeped off my mount or feared around bg from one corner to the next lol. Hey honor is honor wewt.

Im not sure if your joking but okey..

The loss of a shield is given back to death knights trought ice bound fortitude and parry.

This shows why calling Death Knights a hero class was the biggest mistake of Blizzard with the whole WOTLK. DK's are called a hero class because they start at 55 not because they are suposed to be a stronger class.

You have 3 ways to counter fear and by that dim returns is loooong gone.

Lichborn,anti magic shield and your pvp trinket, hey you can even go undead. Before he can even trow of his fear, you can strangulate. Death knights are in NO way in a bad state vs locks.. And why is chains of ice not affected by diminishing returns?? Lichborn negeates nearly all defence the warlock got for 20 seconds and its aparently not enough!

Hunters explosive shot is getting a nerf and the random tnt stun goes wich is a good thing.

Anyway no point arguing since we can do that on the Blizzard forums.
