So DKs got Major Mending and they're still crying?

Boo hoo.

DKs always had major mending. Now we have it for 1-2 seconds longer. Still worse than what it was pre-nerf.

And sometimes you really make me wonder how I do not insult you so hard that my forum account gets suspended.
Because you truly deserve all of it.

Man, some classes have NEVER had Major Mending. This is exactly what I'm talking about. You guys are crying about imaginary nerfs when Sorcs have been eating dust for years.

What?! Lol...

GIlliam just said on stream that DKs are freaking amazing.

I'll take his word over your conjectures.

^^^^ yup.

I swear, so many ppl just read a few things and then come cry on here about their class getting nerfed. I've looked up the Reddit post, watched some of Gilliam's stream, Woeler's vid, etc. The unanimous opinion on DK is that they were absolutely buffed and pretty much back in the scene.

Plus it looks like a DK healer might even be viable in Summerset. Not to mention NBs too. Why are people already complaining?

Is this another "DK is dead" thread?

Another illogical whine thread..

Let's start with Combustion now these are changes so that means the current Combustion Passive which gives both Stamina/Magicka DK increased burn/poison damage by 50% at max passive is now removed. @ZOS_Wrobel what happened mate you clearly stated in a live stream you WANTED DK DoTS TO HURT I guess you clearly don't know what the DK class should be; I mean you are the person to state (paraphrased) that "DKs are meant to only pressure a target while they wait for an ally to help finish off the enemy" (this was referring to a PvP question Wrobel answered on ESO live). I just can't with you man seriously like wtf.

We don't know yet, so there's no reason to get mad.

Cauterize I really don't understand, the DK class albeit an innate support based class wasn't meant to be healing but standing its ground. I've stated before that cauterize should turn into a ability that makes the DK lay a circle or path of lava that damages + heals the targets in that ability. The damage could scale 5% on up and will continue to heal as long as you damage the target in that area (both burn/your own damage would heal you). THIS IDEA emulates what a DK was suppose to do originally I.E STAND HIS GROUND!
Now obviously my ideas aren't the best for everyone but this is just one taking the DK class as a whole and looking at it from the experiences I've obtained solely playing this class.

People play their class however they want. It's a buff to magdks who want to be healers. Why are you complaining about this buff?

Reflective Plate: This idea I honestly don't have much against but I'd rather it changed to one that absorbs the projectiles giving back resources (magicka/health only). Removing a snare just so it can be re-applied on you is just a STUPID idea and again shows how short-sighted these changes are.

This is by far the most illogical point in your post. You want DKs to have an equivalent of shimmering shield? Do you know how overpowered that would make mag dks? Also, you are the first person to complain about a snare cleanse. They also did not state that the skill is being reworked, so basically, this skill can reflect spells and cleanse snares. This buff is essential for magdks in solo and group pvp, since snares are what usually kill them. Why are you complaining?

Stone Giant: Like seriously who cares about this ability, it's been buffed, changed. and still remains unpopular why don't you just change the entire skill and make it something worth using for a change? The Minotaur shaman had this cool molten lava ground bursting move, why can't we have something like that which damages/immobilize+applies minor fracture/breech?

Similar to the complaint about cauterize change. You already have 2 skills that can immobilize, a third one is overkill. Minor fracture,breach is also unnecessary.

Fragmented shield: Another useless change that gives this ability major mending but yet again the other morph has what... oh yeah the same buff just a shield. So the bright idea was to re-use a buff because we can't think of anything more interesting to give this ability? Why not make it so that being damaged accumulates the damage and after X amount of seconds 15-30% of the accumulated damage is expelled in x radius placing all targets in the area off balanced?

Useless? It gives 2s more of major mending, which increases the duration to 5 seconds. 5 seconds of major mending is a lot, because it has the same duration as vigor. This is a buff to stam dk, because they can now have a full duration of mending on their vigor. If they don't remove the shield in this morph, then this is basically igneous pre-nerf. Your suggestion of fragmented shield change is basically similar to blazing shield, but also off balances people. Do you know how stupid your suggestion is?

Cinder storm... For the love of all that is sensible seriously who thought this is the idea we all needed? YOU HAD A ABILITY BEFORE THAT WORKED! Revert Cinder storms back to what it used to be i.e major evasion when you were standing in it. That original skill was another defining skill that said to the player "You stand and fight" who keeps thinking that DKs want to be some off branded damn Templar, I don't understand.

Do you have cinder storm in your bar? I can think of many skills that are much better than this one. Again, people have different playstyle. Your point makes no sense. Your suggestion is also unncessary. You want to give magdks major evasion too? Do you know how op that would be?

This upcoming patch gives magdks a good balance change. Every top tier magdks in pvp I've talked to all agreed that the change is good. Idk why you even made this thread.

Can we please wait for the PTS and test some stuff until we already make such claims? Dk got some fancy this patch and sorc did as well. This forum drives me insane. Dk got sustain buffs, Wings got a nice morph, Mending duration got buffed and so on (stamdk might need a bit more love but mag Dk looks really interesting). Sorc got a huge buff from Runecage, light/heavy attacks will deal much more damage and get a free item slot: If you don't see any buffs here then I don't know.

Oh it's only just started lol. This is the inevitable initial wave of QQ from self-proclaimed "vets" who have done exactly zero testing, and unsurprisingly stand at odds with those who have.
