I for one don't care at all about utility, because I'm more of a numbers guy....Yeah, that guy. All I want is for myself to be able to beat other classes on any given fight if I play better than them. It is obviously Blizzard's claimed goal to make every spec close in dps, but unless if they completely change the way some specs work mechanically, this will never come close to happening; and it most likely never will. Ranged classes will always outclass melee for the most part because most fights have targets that end up not being in melee range for any given amount of time. DoT classes will always be stronger on fights with more than one target at range. This is how it has always been, and this is how it will always be most likely. DKs have always, and will always get the short end of the stick.
I will not enjoy this ride, and I will not participate in this ride any longer. Those who are new to DK or those who just don't care about being competitive can stay, but I for one, after years of trying to make the best of shitty class, am ready to give up. Up until SoO, I had no other max-level characters other than my DK, because I was so devoted to the class. I prided myself on being one of the best DKs, despite being in an awful guild, but after realizing how terrible DKs would once again be, I decided to level up a mage and gear it out as an alt. Now, I prefer to play my mage any time I can, and plan to main switch come WoD. I hope that most of you who are on the edge of dropping the class will finally do so, you won't regret it.
