Normally i would agree with you but they were so far ahead of some specs (25% ish) that if every spec was to that level the content would feel more easy. It made more sense in this instance to knock them down a little than to raise them up.
But yes totally usually i call for buffs not nerfs as thats my mindset on it also.
I must admit i have not levelled my DK yet i am due to do it this week sometime. I think they need some buffs in PVP correct and this is a double whack for those who just PVP if so i can totally see why some people are more than slightly annoyed.

Are we back to a minimum of Haste to go for? Like around 20% or so?
Can we just make Frost the PVP spec then? I should just be unkillable in PVP, this is dumb. Icebound Fortitude should be on like a 30 second CD for FDK and make chillstreak do like 200% more damage.
I hate how only 1 DK spec is allowed to dominate anything at any given time, so stupid.
Unholy gets a nerf but balance druids that do just about the same amount of dps got no nerfs >.> gg blizz. I understand that it is a small nerf but nerfs are never fun especially when they had months to test this before it was even live.

I for one am totally okay with UH being a top PvE dps spec, though that alone won't likely give them a spot in many top end comps for raid and M+.
If Anti Magic Zone had more fights where it was useful that would be great, but as it stands every UH main I know is gearing a Hunter or Boomkin for Mythic prep. Sad days for DKs
Classes
Tank Specializations
Threat generation for all Tanks increased by 10%.
Death Knight (Forums / Skills / Talent Calculator)
Unholy
Mastery: Dreadblade effectiveness reduced by 15%.
Blood
Blood Boil damage increased by 10%.
Heart Strike damage increased by 15%.
Marrowrend damage increased by 10%.
Death Strike damage increased by 5%.
This post was posted first and does label them as Blood DK abilities according to the front page of MMO-C.
Nah fuck that noise.
Death Knights should be number one in Shadowlands, it's basically homecoming, except the prom queen committed genocide.
But on a serious note, I don't see this changing much in terms of overall gameplay and decision making.
The developers that tune DKs are shitty at playing DKs also. Remember the ka-boom in Legion pre-patch?
they bumped it up to 20% in newest hotflix

Just to clarify for everyone this is not a huge nerf. Mastery effectiveness is reduced by 20%, not mastery itself.
That is to say that if you have 30% mastery, which would increase your shadow and pet damage by 30%, now it will increase that damage by 24%.
(30% x 0.2 = 6% nerf to shadow and pet damage)
This ^^ right here. I wish folks actually read and knew what the % they complain about actually mean....
- - - Updated - - -
Its actually less than 5%, closer to a 3% overall mastery nerf. Not at all what you guys/gals are thinking. Re-read the post.
Edited to add - Actually with latest update it looks like its now closer to 5%.

Its now 20% reduced effectiveness..
Will this change our main stat back to haste?
Just because we can cast spells and have a darkish theme going on doesn't make us spriests silly.
Reading all these posts about how OP UH is right now makes me cry abit on the inside for not being able to play it for my life. Only used UH 3 times during entire WoW...mage tower in legion, sleep canister boss solo and aggramar solo. Not to mention blood is bottom feeder but gets buffed in a few hours :-)
Wow, UH actually got a 20% nerf and not 15%
Also, where are all the blood buffs gone?

Urgh. I was fine with those 15% but adding another 5% on top just adds insult to injury.
Heavens forbid Unholy DKs are actually leading the dmg meter once every few expansions.
