Call it a nerf or buff it is a change to 2hand which ALL classes use. It has nothing to do with your class
DKs as a class actually got buffed, especially stamina builds changing to poison, they do alot more damage now.
You really need to change this post title to 2hand. Also that skill still has the knock back and stun you just need to choose the morph between that and the 20% empowerbuff.
Ok I changed it to stam dk 2H build..
well according to the patch notes, the stun and knockback has been eliminated and that is my problem with this skill nerf!!
and executioner......hell no! I do not need increased damage +50, it already did hit hard, I the increase of the damage of all Two Handed abilities while slotted;!!!! stacking!!
the same with WB, why was there a need for nerf?? the knockback and stun was the major part of that skill effect, which enabled my DK to use heal or crit rush in the meantime. but now nothing like that is working anymore

oh, f***k, really!!!
ZOS, WHY YOU NERFED MY STAMDRAGONKNIGHT AGAIN????!!!!
these WERE my main hitting skills that made the core of my build!! now it is all f***ed.
seriously I am considering deleting this game
Why to heck ZOS do you always when I learn to play a new build have to nerf it and send it to hell?????
this must be a wrong copy-paste from the April 1st patch notes!!!!
this is just impossible!!!!!
I hate this company!!!
Two Handed
Executioner (Reverse Slash morph): Redesigned this morph so it no longer passively increases the damage of all Two Handed abilities while slotted; instead, it increases the scaling bonus damage to low health targets to a maximum of 335/340/345/350% more damage at Ranks I/II/III/IV, increased from 300%.
Wrecking Blow morph no longer knockback and stun enemies hit.
Note: Wrecking Blow will continue to add the Major Empower buff to your next attack as a morph effect.

I am not trolling!
yes, l2p, but how should i learn to play, when it is now 2nd time that I finally learned how to play my build, they AGAIN nerf it to hell??
it is really not funny anymore ZOS!!
The Executioner change is actually extremely misleading, it never gave you a bonus to all 2-handed skills while slotted, unless the enemy was under 25% health or some threshold like that. At that point, you would almost certainly be using Executioner anyway, except on edge-case situations like charging a low-health target or Wrecking Blow against a permablocker. Thus, the 18% (if I recall correctly) damage boost against low-health targets is way lower than the now 50% increase in damage to Executioner.

Crit rush low health runners worked beautifully.
Shame really... how will you ever kill people with this without the stun and knock back? : ( I feel for you.
If you're more into the PvE aspect of the game, have you considered playing as a magicka dk? I do play both but tend to lean towards my magicka build more for PvE for better sustain and versatility. It might not be the end, but a new beginning for your DK.
EDIT: In case trolling, gg, wp.
well I do not consider changing my stam to mag - changing my build, gear, CP, everything..., I like stam, that is the thing...
But you're an Altmer... magicka would be better for you anyway.
But let's say you stick with stam. For PvE, 2H really wasn't very good to begin with. DW/bow is better for PvE--more damage, more AOE. Most people who spam the 2H wrecking blow are PvPers who use that skill specifically for the stun and knockback--but in PvE, that stun and knockback isn't very useful, and the raw damage output of DW/bow is better. That, and you need a lot more AOE in PvE, and 2H sucks at that.

More like "buffed the barf" out of Stam DK
Well here is the thing, I've been playing around with the new poison morphs on PTS, and you get to spew green vomit on everything now and it is awesome. How many classes get to do that?! So I would just take a step back, look at the new changes with an open mind and then run around vomiting on everything for a while and see how it goes.
