Mosg2's DK Manifesto

[Kromtor]

on a 4 dps + ??? team you have to ask yourself what the 5th character is bringing to the table. my pally - granted his gear is shit - is so effectively focused and burned down that he essentially only ever heals himself and he's not doing any damage. In essence he is a distraction or delay. I don't feel like he's keeping the team alive longer than any other class would - something that could CC and do damage perhaps like a lock would be interesting.

but maybe when i get him properly geared people won't have such an easy time killing him as long as im peeling off melee and interrupting casters a bit. We'll see.

All that i know is that shaman healers have been the hardest to actually kill for my team - which is unexpected. The spirit walkers grace + earth shield + stoneclaw then earthbind is a brutally effective way to get away from melee.

I am not convinced that controlling healer + 4 dps is better than 5 dps either. But with healers, they bring dispel. Which is a big part, 5 dps, being CCed for 2. Now you only have 3 dps left.

5 V 5. Someone is gonna get locked down/CC on both sides. So the attacking window with full force is small. Having a holy paladin can/should make sure you have 4 dps attacking for the 8 seconds bubble duration (minus cyclone of course). Without a healer, a simple AOE fear + ring of frost, my whole team is pretty much disabled.

as for killing the shaman, you sure it is Not because the other holy paladin spamming heal on him while you are chasing the shaman down ?

[Mosg2]

Yeah, Holy Paladins atm are pretty f'ing amazing healers. I have more to say but I'm exhausted.

[outdrsyguy1]

Holy paladins when left free heal for insane amounts. I had one heal for over 700k in a match I lost. Not sure how that's even possible with the current mana pool situation.

I play with 4dks/priest and basically spec /gear him to just survive and die. he's all hp and resil and when he finally dies, i get 21 seconds of free uninterupted healing. As long as i'm careful that he doesn't die out of los' it does help. Sometimes i go for pallies first because as long as i can get free for .5 secs, they are toast. half the time they are too slow to bubble anyways.

I've found shaman hard to kill also, but the worst is a druid. i've chased them all over the arena and did hundreds upon hundreds of thousands and they just don't go down. it's insane how much healing and damage they can soak up.

The hardest part for me is healing while dps'ing. I spend so much time trying to keep my guys from being kited/cc'd that I don't do a lot of healing. Matches usually end up with the other team doing 200 to 500k healing and me around 150 to 200k at best.

I have my silence on RR, but i think i need to change it to arenatarget-1 through 4.

Also, i'm having issues with the angel, because for some stupid reason, you can't cast on "targets target" with macros while in that form. I have to make a macro to target party1,2,3 etc to spam heals while in angel form.

[Mercbeast]

I'm the same way, if I put out 100k healing that is usually a sign the other team blows

While I usually put out 200k damage minimum per DK and sometimes 2x that.

Grab Vuhdo. I used it from setups where I would click heal using repeater regions. It allows quick targeted healing using a range of spells and works fine in Spirit of Redemption form for me.

[remanz]

DOes it allow "click castsequence"

so I click it once for holy shock, 2nd time for Flash of Light. etc. Instead of me going left click, shift click, alt + click, ctrl middle click etc. Too many spells, things don't go very smooth when I try to manage all of them.

[outdrsyguy1]

i already use it, but i'm not sure about the calling a macro remanz, it might be able to do that. Someone who knows it better than me would have to say how. maybe instead of putting the left click heal spell you put in the macro or something.

[Ualaa]

I know you can do a macro with Grid.
But have not tested how well that would work.

I'll assume, if you can attach a macro instead of a spell with Grid.
That Healbot and Vuhdo will have something similar.

Yes it will work as you want it to, you will want to get installed.
open your spell book and you will see the clique tab below your guild perks tab click on that and you will be in clique binding mode.
from there you will see three options at the bottom from left to right bind spell bind other and options
you will want to choose bind other, and run custom macro.
and then it is as simple as following the on screen directions on how to bind it. word of note Make sue you add the [@mouseover] to your cast sequence macro in order for it work.
