Well you only really see Stamina DKs and Stamina Templars and rarely Stamina Nightblades use it.

Why? Can you guess why?

Well if you guessed correctly— It's cause DKs and Templars don't have an innate instant-damage single-target ability that scales off stamina! Notice I said instant-damage, Biting Jabs is channeled.

Edit: Okay hold up WB is channeled too LMAOO but anyways what I meant to say was that if a skill is CHEAP to cast, and does TONS OF DAMAGE, then of course people are going to use it!

Edit 2: What I really meant was is that DKs and Templars do not have a reliable source of single-target, non-damage-over-time abilities that do decent damage and scale off stamina. So that's why they turn to Wrecking Blow. It's really the only skill in all weapon skill lines that do what I described.

I feel as if lots of complaints can be stopped by simply adding a stam whip for DK's. Playing on console even removes (or complicates) s&b for a DK because of stam regen... Very limited other options.

Agreed, stam whip changes a lot. I hate WB but feel forced to use it. I hate the animation, its like doing a granny shot in basketball but hits like a bomb. But everything i have read is the magicka whip hits so weak. I think they need to do a stamina morph plus buff the damage a little.

I have my fingers crossed this is included in the class rebalancing in the next major update. Although we would still be stuck with the 2h for rally and gap closer but progress is progress.
