Blizz are happy with Death Knights on Beta?

Classes

â€¢No further major class changes are planned for the beta. From here out it will be primarily tuning.

Im well aware that " Primarily Tuning " is rather open ended with its meaning, but are blizzard actually happy with where death knights are on beta right now? it almost seems with every turn the class takes atm the core problems with the class remain.

from all accounts the new rune system is not working, runic empowerment, jumbles and ruins rotations. a number of existing talents remain despite blizzards stated design goals for all other classes. core mechancs of the class and staple abilities still have a number of issues. and every death knight thread that pops up discussing the issues with the class is locked.

its fairly easy to be discouraged as a DK right now considering most other classes have had extensive work done, and id like to keep this thread free from QQ.

but what is everyone elses take, and not just deathknights, about the above statement and where there classes are sitting on the beta right now?

This is QQ, though. If you have specific concerns, bring them up. I can't turn around and tell the other class designers "DKs don't feel that their class is done." They will look at me with blank stares until I give them more to go on.

Q u o t e:
While GC posts do bring trolls into decent threads occasionally, no dev response at all to reasonable shaman posts when other reasonable posts get responses leads to a group of people who love their class and want it fixed, but don't see any positive influence from the devs towards their thoughts and discussions. Which in turn, mounts further bitterness atop an already large pile... nay, mountain of depression that shaman feel.

GC's bosses: "Hmm. GC can't seem to be everywhere at once, and players get upset when he can't do so. Maybe it's better if we return to the forums of yore when nobody had the expectation of a blue post."
