[BUG] PLEASE Fix Scourge Strike

#0 - Feb. 9, 2010, 10:49 a.m.

OK.....I have been checking everyday for a hotfix on Scourge Strike so i can resume my pvp season....getting beat by teams that I know for a fact my team has never lost to, and getting beaten badly because I literally can't kill anything is making me flat out stop PvP until this is fixed. I started the season at a 2475 mmr, and now I am down to 2150 and watching teams that SHOULD have no chance against us win is just flat out unacceptable. We outplay ,outskill whatever you want to call it all of these teams, yet we cannot win becuase DK's have absolutely zero burst right now without our double rune strike, and because we have no MS you get someone low by spamming Death Coils, but they only get low because the opposing teams healer is so bored he is spamming damage spells instead of healing. Then he's at 20% gets 1 flash off and boom he's a full HP.....I mean honestly, there is just no reason to run arenas right now as a DK, getting beat by people that barely know their class is just flat out not fun and down right aggravating. Also....we can't rely on disease damge because well lets face it, it's not bursty at all what-so-ever, AND almost every healing class in the game dispels them instantly. I know some have made the arguement that DK's are now a support class, but that is not what they were meant to be in blizzards own words, secondly....it's boring spamming CoI and we literally can't run 2s right now...can't win.

I've been waiting desperately for a blue to post on this topic, and I saw all that happened was a blue posting saying that there WOULD be a hotfix, can we please have an estimated time of delivery? I know that you guys are probably busy with the patch and all, but alot of us would very much like to get back to grinding and gearing for this season. All I'm asking for is some info maybe on the changes, or a update on our progress with the hotfix :).....thanks alot I know this is long, but I felt as though it was needed to stress just how badly this is gimping Death Knights for PvP.

Q u o t e:
ROFL I just got done reading GC's debate with some people over DK's....I don't understand this....there is plenty of data to show that SS is just absolutely broken...and it's really a major problem for arena....I would imagine that if Paladin's Holy Light suddenly started critting for 3k it would get fixed immediately, but who knows I guess some people just don't want DK's to PvP since S5....I mean just let S5 go it's over with and every class has had an overpowered season. Balance us PLEASE.

Your response here has nothing to do with the resilience bug for Scourge Strike, which has now been fixed. If you want to discuss DKs in PvP there are plenty of existing threads on the topic. Bumping this one is just going to cause confusion among players who can't tell the difference between a bug in the ability and you not thinking it hits hard enough.
