So you want guaranteed power lashes against people who play good against you and actively use game mechanics to counter you. So according to you sorc frags should be unreflectable and undodgeable because their visual cues and travel time make it easy to counter and make the whole rotation feel clunky.
You literally want to punish good play. Can you even comprehend how absurd that sounds?
"Good play" would be staying away from the magDK in the first place, because its goal is to immobilize and burn you down at melee range.
You used to be punished for staying in magDK's immediate range and now any decent medium build running Shuffle will avoid at least half of Power Lashes attempted and whittle the magDK down with defiles and snares that stamina builds love so much.
If you want to play a squishy medium build against a berserker class, accept that balance-wise, you SHOULD be at a disadvantage because you can escape at any time should you choose to.
If your opponent is kiting you so good to the point where you cant even land one whip in talons that will guarantee you a power lash hit after fossilize then you got outplayed. Period.

Let me guess. Another butthurt antinightblade. Cool, get in line with the rest of them. Seems like the new trend. Now that sorcs are out of the way we are going for NBs. Everything should be undodgeable. Dont let them breath.

Couldnt agree more. PVP is getting worse every patch and their incompetence is actually really funny and frustrating at the same time. But fixing an ability which ignored game mechanics is a good fix.

Good, fix it. If you ask me, any single target non channel abiliity should be dodgeable. Feel free to nerf incap too in some way. Id probably get behind that as well.

I was a bit surprised to see Killer's Blade on the list so I went ahead and tested it: 100% dodgeable.

Id say the defile. At least make it minor defile and then completely and utterly destroy that stupid befoul passive in CP.
@DDuke just tested on live, unmorphed version is not dodgeable.
@IZZESparkling if you have problems vs medium builds it's on you getting outplayed.

They are trying to kite you and stay in range. Thats the whole point of dodge rolling. They are dodge rolling to get out of ur roots and create space. But you feel entitled to undodgeable power lashes on anyone who even dares to come close to you and you want to punish anyone who dares to counter your class. I cant even fathom how you even think like that. Do you even listen to urself? Should frags become undodgeable and unreflectable because they are telegraphed? Should we make every single telegraphed rotation ignore mechanics just because its telegraphed?
Let me make it a little more simple for you. If your opponent is kiting you so good to the point where you cant even land one whip in talons that will guarantee you a power lash hit after fossilize then you got outplayed. Period.

I don't know anybody who doesn't play mag Dk and rates it as fun to play against this class.
Change that for:
I'd like to play mDK, which has a unique playstyle where their skills resonate with each other while still having counter play.
As I said, stamblades have a hard encounter against mDKs. But in all honesty, if you can't outheal or OUTPLAY (and this is the important term) any mDK by keeping your distance, bursting when necessary, using your own dots, your access to defile and one of the most powerful ults in the game I am terribly sorry... but that's an L2P issue (not saying its your case)
We can't nerf classes simply because people don't take their time to learn how to fight against it.
I'm sorry if I sounded rude or agressive, that's not my objective here. I just can't put it better...
"L2P issue"
How are you going to outheal 15k tooltip power lashes, undodgeable embers, 20k tooltip leaps, FoB projectiles, Skoria procs?
How are you going to keep your distance when a mag DK has Empowering Chains slotted?
How are you ever going to burst them when they have just enough health & mitigation to survive your predictable burst with a calculated maximum of 19k dmg on proper CPs/mitigation?
What is your Defile going to do against Healing Ward that's stronger than your Rev Slice/Killer's Blade?
The only way to beat an actual good mDK is with S&B Clown King dueling build, and any stam build can do that. In fact, those builds will now be weaker against mDK thanks to the Power Lash changes, as they don't dodge - they block. That is a good thing.
If there's anyone with L2P issues it's you, complaining when mDKs are getting buffed against most builds in the game.
