WoW Crew: Yes, we're still playing this game

[CPTMULLET]

Was DK always this...slow? Maybe gear and haste levels but as Blood it seems way worse than it's ever been.

I find myself just standing there waiting on runes to regen. Feels like shit compared to spammy warrior.

blood is a tank spec, and you don't really have gear.... so yes, ever since diseaseless blood in WOTLK it's been slow

got too used to prot warrior spamming i guess lol

 

[the_antsy_honda]

getting the hang of it, did a couple dungs

yeah iirc most war specs are priority based and there's basically something every gcd

 

[the_antsy_honda]

the brez is useful. and gorefiends is good. i keep reaching for charge for knockback type things but i bound death grip to it instead and nothing happens lol

 

[the_antsy_honda]

did what feels like 5 back to back normals. got from 60 to 64 lol

And I still have no idea what I'm doing with professions.

NICE

I just go with gathering professions when I can't decide Mining is pretty wild for making gold, especially if you spec into pulling the elemental stuff out of the nodes

Leveling my priest kind of felt like I just blacked out since I was doing dungeons so fast as a healer, lol

Maybe I’ll finally work on my Druid when I get back from visiting family

 

[the_antsy_honda]

aside from the slowness of rune regen, dk has some good combat strategy tools.

2 death grips, gorefiends, and the hand slappy thing, ranged interrupt

feels like it has tons of tools

 

[the_antsy_honda]

and the 2 stack of death's advance really helps to mitigate their lack of gap closers

 

[the_antsy_honda]

and then there's the march of darkness 25% extra boost for 3s talent

Spent all day playing blood dk

Went to try a normal m0 nokhud offensive on my warrior and kept pressing the wrong buttons, embarrassed myself (more than usual)

Feels bad man 😔

As a chronic alt player I understand

After playing my DH for awhile I always end up looking myself by dismounting or jumping off a really high place expecting to glide

Can confirm have done this with warrior and using heroic leap just prior to death

It works a little differently for death knights. They just death

properly played blood tank should have no downtime really even with low haste (unless some incredibly drastic changes have been made)

low level, 10% haste

 

[m2e]

does bone shield still give haste? if so, are you ending pulls with stacks up? if still gives haste and you're not maintaining stacks then thats not ideal for rune regen.

i'm fine now. mostly was adjusting from 375 prot war to level 60 blood

 

[the_antsy_honda]

in a way i like prot warrior better since I feel so much more tankier, and damage is better, but blood feels like you can pull off some ridiculous shit sometimes

tbh I thought he was doing world quests, it would absolutely feel clunky out there taking 3 damage
