I'm worried even coming up with a topic like this but I've intended to do for a while. I am sure this is the sort of question that has devotees on both sides of the divide but I am curious.
I'm a blood Death Knight, magnificent tanking class. And I have Unholy as an offspec, tons of fun Unholy. Sometimes I find myself tempted to try Frost but something strikes me as odd.
As far as I can see, Frost is the only spec in the game where weapon choice affects gearing and rotation. 2h Frost DKs are supposed to use Obliterate and Dual Wielders are supposed to use Frost Strike.
2handers are supposed to value crit over mastery and for dual wielders it is mastery over crit.
I suppose what I want to ask, and I freely admit my ignorance on this as I only used Frost to level a long,long time ago, is why?
Why does Frost do this. And, more importantly looking to the future, would you want Frost to continue supporting this?
Would Frost be better being a dedicated dual wielding spec (UH being the 2h DPS spec) or would Frost lose something special by doing that?
As I said I am just curious, I just seek to see opinions.
