I'm leveling up a fourth dk just so i can pair him up with my other 3. Same problems i see abound for all melee teams now tho, EASILY kited, ranged classes can hit from EVEN FARTHER away, and lack of good defensive spells just as bad as ret imo. I guess a team like this would be good in bgs but i can see hunter mage mage locking down a whole 5 man team of dks till the hunter kills you all, even with dg and silences.

Ranged classes have INSANE dmg and range, and to be honest most every melee group(either boxed or solo played) is getting rofflestomped every time. Even good players in full wrathful + shadowmournes are getting rolled by ranged classes. I've seen some crazy things lately lol. I dueld a frost mage 43 times the other night, blowing every cooldown i could trying EVERYTHING i could even los pillar humping and i never got him even below 90%... EVER. No matter what we tried he just frostbolt kite me, blinked, ice novas frost novas, rooted me slowed me. i only ever got into melee range blowing a stun or repentance, and the mage just lol'd and iceblocked or blinked... every time. I'm no bad player, and albeit theres lots of new mechanics at work but even against druids/shaman/shadow priests/locks/omghunters... theres literally ZERO chance that at current dmg levels for our poor pallys we're gonna be busting anyone... dks have SOME burst potential, but they're in the same boat imo... its looking like cataclsym spells DOOM for melee and casters will be on the pedastal once again. 5 shammy is looking a lot sweeter, and i'm mad i never leveld any >.< oh well my 5 druid team is almost 80 2 more levels to go! >.<
Dks are better than paladins... thats for damn sure after the change to the mastery effected ret so hard.... 20k crit from howling blast? yes please.
