NO! my dk who is in full cata gear with over 5k resil, cant even beat a ruthless opponent. sad really, unholy was nerfed a couple patches ago, and frosts howling blast was also affected. this recent patch vengance was taking from blood specced pvpers. yea they still have the survivability all the tanks have, now they cant even beat a noob.their average dps is 2k, down from 5 to 6k. Thus making this class a no contender. funny i seen a few prot pallies pull 8k dps, like com'mon now, Wake up bliz, do something about this, how can a 5k resil frost dk get 2 shotted by a ruthless only mage. or rogues when they get low can stay hidden til the match comes to a draw and both lose after 45 min of nothing but cheap shots. who else feels something isn't right, plz let me know andis there a suggestion? my DK is no good in pvp anymore ;{

DKs are the best anti-caster class. They have a place in arenas.

No, that would be subtlety rogues. We're pretty good anti-casters.

ATM? Yes. When necrotic strike becomes death rune only? No.

Ok, fine. But DKs aren't far behind. They can still wreck a caster pretty hard.

First off, as frost even in unholy, our resiliance barely contributes to any aide, ewe lose chunks of health too fast. im over 5k resil and how is it in arena with one guy left, can i get 4 shotted evevn with antimagic sheild up.. heck with all this, there r 2 bigger pressing issues. first is not only is it that bliz wants to control the population by nerfing one so ppl can play a diffrent class, which to me is quite simple. FIX it to where its fair. rogues pallies druid each have their cheap shots and nothing really can be done about it. not only did u not care about vengance, for what it will do to us, now the other classes r far supperior.ooh wait we have death grip. cmon now, a 5k resil full cata should be able to destroy someone wearing all ruthless, but now we have a hard time doing that. wtg bliz.. Now the problem is gonna be with random BG's, if 2 ppl attack me im dead in a few seconds even with cd, theres nothing we can do. and now that the BG's r revolutionized, with ppl assembling the most elite thru real id, the average ppl who just want to get their daily win will have to sometimes fight for hours, personally u need to fix the que system, having an elite team against ppl who r still gearing isnt fun, its gonna cause u to lose alot of ppl, just a thought man. cause bg's r getting horribly one sided.

Ugh, really? If you're not going to put effort into what you're typing, don't expect people to put effort into reading it.

/waves DKs are fine in arena as far as I'm concerned. I play UH in 2s arena. 2s are unbalanced as everyone knows, so expect a lot of strange BS to take place. My damage is good and I have decent utility against casters etc. I really can't complain. People wearing Ruthless? No... I don't have any problems with BG armor. Maybe you are having a run of bad luck. Happens to everyone. I find the only problem I am having is teams with a huge burst at the beginning, but everyone is having this problem. Blizzard is supposed to address this issue next expansion.....lol we'll see about that. My hubby and I played 8 arena games tonight (all we had time for). We won 5 of them. This didn't take "hours" it took One hour. Also... Remember you're playing 2s in arena. 2s suck, but it's what I have time for atm. Maybe you should try 3s for more balance.

OH just want to say that warlocks are the most balanced class in wow, and players that do well with them are usually very skilled players. they are also hard to play compared to all the other classes.

lol, well finally some real life, nah was sick of seeing lame replies, so unholy huh, well i tried it before the last patch, was less geared kinda didnt agree with my play style, but thx i will try it, and yea dont play too many 3's, but no im frost. either im the only one nerfed, cause i feel against how i fair with one guy outside org, when i enter the arena and fight the one i just dueled, it just doesnt feel the same, and yea i know theres 2, but one is dead already and the one i can easily woop, beats me, ah who cares, the biggest point im glad u bought it up was about the rogue fighting a blood dk. why do arenas have to be 45 min long. k thx for replies. bbut im apparently only getting replies from those that havent seen any diffrence, well i play 10 hours a day for 3 years, i think i can see a change, well im done with this thread, i find your just mostly bliz employees and attacking someone who has truely found dk's to be nerfed more then they should.....u win bliz, later!
