I usually watch warriors, or balance druids on kill povs and I can rarely see they "screw up" the rotation. They have shiny buttons and they click them and they win. Looks to me that they cannot slip up. I have a friend who plays warrior in a top 100 world guild, and I asked him what kind of rotation he has, he literally told me; "I press stuff that is shining on my UI", and I asked him; how do you know if you screwed up your rotation? And he just laughs at me saying, well, since warrior is a situational class you press any ability you feel like without causing too much downtime.
I wish that was the case for Death Knights, i'm tired of having my screen covered up with weakauras and TMW etc just to NOT fuck up my rune management.
Problems for UH Dk's atm
1; We have no noticable crits, we have "stable" damage which is just boring as watching grass grow, aka, losing complete interest in your class.
2; Our burst is non-existant, there are classes out there bursting 90-140k easily, and they live off that burst 2-3-4 minutes into the fight having no competetion on the meters. What are Dk's bursting, 70-80k for what, 40 seconds?
3; Rune management and Runic Power management. If you slip up once during a bossfight you end up with 1-2 orphan frost or blood runes and you'll have to sit there and wait for them to regenerate, OR you're forced to use Plague Leech which will put you on your ass when you need it the next time.
4; In need of another UH buff to make us viable in raids. There's literally no point in having a DK in your raid, unless you're unemployed and playing in the topguilds with the absolute best gear available. You can switch out a DK for another mage, feral, oh and warriors for that matter, you see, we are facing hard times ahead of us, atleast we who raid mythic. More and more guilds are swapping Dks for another class, so what we're seeing is a slow, painful death for UH dks, or dks in general.
Do I have to change class to enjoy this game again?
Now I let my steaming rage out, holy god, forgive me padre for I have sinned.
