should the class with no execute, mobility or escapes have highest DPS

Anilahation · June 2014

I mean that is basically what a DK is so I really think it's fair that our class should top dps.

dsalter · June 2014

go 2 handed, you now have mobility and an execute.
go vampire and you have an escape.
bonus time, Talons can count as mobility as it roots enemies giving you a mobility edge, your leap is great for staying near a target, you have one of the best healing passives i'v ever seen, and huge durability.

i'm pretty sure your not underpowered thats for damn sure.

Funny that you should conveniently leave out that you have higher survivability than any other class.

Also don't forget you're also the only class with a pull.

shhhh

We have strong defense since our class should be thought of as a short range tank..

We have that because we have no way too escape or choose our fights due to class having no escape

I'm talking about classes. Dk as a class has no execute, mobility or escape. mentioning other skills is meaningless since everyone has those optionsOur class is basically short range siege weapon that has non scaling damage. Most of the time when people think off non mobile classes they are rewarded with bulkiness and higher damage spells. (ESPUR from wildstar, Warlock from WoW, Velkoz/Xerath from LoL) While other classes get higher dps in execute range, a DK dps won't spike up unless he is running a specific weapon.

Talons can count as mobility as it roots enemies giving you a mobility edge, your leap is great for staying near a target, you have one of the best healing passives i'v ever seen, and huge durability.
i cut out the important parts. you have mobility, a semi escape using talons or that petrify disable, massive durability naturally and self inbuilt healing. trust me being able to *** out and bolt escape isn't needed when it's nigh impossible to 1 v 1 a DK who knows his crap.

Dragonblood its one of the best survival skills, and you still have standard of might wich is one of the best ultimates ever.
Only those 2 skills make DKs a very awesome class, even if the rest of the dk skills get nerfed.
ow, and you have fiery grip for gap closer (or...like dsalter said, go two handed/sword and shield.

Dks are definitly NOT underpowered. Stop crying please

Anilahation · June 2014

Talons do not count as mobility they are CC.

Mobility=\=sticky.

Death knights in WoW are sticky but the most immobile class in WoW.

Anilahation · June 2014

Fiery grip is not a gal closer. Since it can be spell blocked while pretty much every gap closer in the game still go through and the spell block only blocks the damage, It doesn't make your character not close the gap. <div></div>

I'm fine with your plan of giving Templars the highest DPS

Anilahation · June 2014

Biting jabs execute(and a CC lol)
Light charge mobility.

Your class has no escapes but okay ish sustain.

Evergnar · June 2014

DK class is not a tuck tail and run class. They have plenty of survivability and many options that allow them to create space between them and their attackers.

Throw in 2H or 1H/S gap closers and they have a lot of mobility and versatility.

What I got out of this thread so far... Buff Templar

NerfEverything · June 2014

Yeah I agree with OP, definitely need to buff Templar

GnatB · June 2014

OP's life will be happier if he replaces what ESO calls class with spell school, and thinks of his class as actually including his available weapon/armor/guild skills.

(I'm not going to include vamp/werewolf skills, as some people just don't like the concept of playing as a supernatural character).

The reasoning I'm not mentioning non class skills is because with that logic every one can be tanky and have good sustain by going 1h/Shield+ resto staff. Now do you understand what I'm saying.

hamon · June 2014

ye i concur buff templars. this thread is win

every post you have made thus far is just terrible with these formatting issues...

DK is fine as it is.... and still is the most powerful and durable close range AOE fighter...

Drake81 · June 2014

+1 - templars need way more love from the devs, so no objections from my side dear op
