Lichbane

[Albert the fish]

anyone else ever wonder if lichbane will ever be made even marginally useful or even remove it? or are they ok with it being a joke?

I didn't even know what Lichbane was until I checked wowhead. So yeah.

[Venziir]

Lichbane is useful, or atleast that's what 90% of all the Death Knights I run into think.... And it makes by brain go "ouch"...

We have a lot more runes than we have specs, it's inevitable that some of them won't get used and lichbane happens to be one of them.

I wouldn't say that. It's just that the 15% strength proc from fallen crusader is SO MUCH better than everything else we have available because it scales insanely well with gear and all our moves. IMHO they should either nerf fallen crusader (boo!) or bring some of the other runeforges up to the level of fallen crusader (yay!) so we have some choice in our runes.

As it is now, fallen crusader for pve 2hand. fallen crusader for pvp 2hand. fallen crusader + razorize for frost dualwield.

It would be nice to have the option to use, say cinderglacier + razorice and NOT be completely gimped.

General purpose, there's still going to be one that's better, regardless of how close it is. The only reason for us to switch runes in the same spec would be that one is situationally better, and I'm not sure we want this. "brb guys, this mob is demon, going to reforge my weapon with demonbane, summon me back"

Maybe they could do something with it to make it more useful for some fights, but ofc as one person has said i don't think people are going to want to have to teleport to dk area and reforge just for one fight..

i agree, but i also think that if it's never ever going to be used we might as well take it away

I can't disagree with that, it's worth exactly nothing so it doesn't need to exist.

Lichbane is probably more useful than Giantslayer enchant at least

[Ahpuch]

They were put in the game to give us a bit more variety throughout levelling, if you don't like it don't use it, it's that simple.

Lichbane is our personal Minor Beastslaying.

It is actually rather useful while leveling up until you can get FC, it's good for the archinduin(sic) instances as well as fighting some of the mobs in hellfire. I will admit it needs a bit more punch to it, but it's not a bad leveling enchant and if DKs started at like 35 and then went right into EPL/WPL it would be a great enchant.
