I was wondering why my dk dps felt low this week, because it was.

I'm still 1900+... so dps is fine.

[Shodokan]

What was it, a 20% boost last patch.
And an 8% reduction, next patch.

That should still be an overall gain (10.4%), compared to the start of the season.
And it was strong enough to begin with.



My Annihilation is already showing 15/30/45%, not 12/24/36%.

It was reverted and only the 10% damage reduction that was hotfixed into the game made it live.

[Multibocks]

fuck that, damnit.

Howling Blast is still 10.4% better than it was in 4.0.6.
(1.00 strength > 20% boost in 4.1 = 1.20 > 8% reduction to .92 of 1.20 = 1.104)
And it felt fairly strong then.

I don't like nerfs to Necrotic Strike (0.70 / 0.75 = 0.933; almost a 7% reduction) or Obliterate (1.50 / 1.60 = .9375; a tad over a 6% reduction).

But with the changes to how Blood Runes are permanently Death Runes...
6 and 7% reductions to two abilities, and 10% boost to another...
We're still substantially stronger now, than we were pre 4.1

My DPS still feels good.

My team in 5's is low 1400's, having only played the minimum number of games to cap points two weeks in a row.
I tend to automatically (so far) beat any team with a single healer, and win roughly half my games against double-healer teams.

So far, that equates to a win 2 out of every 3 matches record.

I didn't really notice the hotfix much...
Single healer teams vrs a 4 DK team are almost always instant wins it's too much fun.

If a mage drops ROF I try to get in the middle and i turn off CTM and grip people in, or I pressure the mage before they get the chance to drop ROF. ROF is redonkulous.

Basically hope to land a kill on something during AMS, when AMS is off huddle in the ROF till it expires lol. Other option is train the mage make him iceblock go on something else train the mage after the block.
