im looking at it more from a pve stand point

but i guess the 50% dmg reduction may not make it good =\

Prob. 'cause it's a topic already on the first page: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=20677635315&sid=1

Either way, as I posted there:
I can almost guarantee you they'll change it: as is stated in the notes, it's a DPS loss to use it.

Is it awesome to spam SS over and over? It'd be the same level of excitement, only less DPS than that due to no auto attacking, causing lag, and screwing a lot of PvE encounters over.

Taking 18s to do that...

well you could get them all out b4 the fight starts


BUT

if it stays like this I could only assume the original army would despawn when you started channeling the new one


all this being said, it wont go live haha

I would bet quite heavily that they'll just cut NotD's effect on it in half.

But, regardless, with no CD and half the damage, it's not worth casting AotD over just attacking. AotD does about 80k-100k damage, over its duration, right now. That's 40k-50k next patch. It takes 6 seconds to summon them. So, unless you are doing less than 40k-50k/6 = 6.7k - 8.3k dps normally, which is doubtful, it wouldn't be worth spam AotDing or whatever.

It would, of course, be worth using at any and every phase transition and the like.

No, I do: It was a fun spell, and is still useful in BGs when I can get a successful flank off(as it covers me), but it really isn't that much damage when halved; it'd be 6s to do ~6000 DPS with full raid de/buffs. I do more than that on pretty much every fight w/o DPS cooldowns, and that's with the ghoul talents.


Q u o t e:

It'd be the only time you could use it and not have it be a DPS loss. That, or giant lulls between fights(such as beasts).

I get what you're saying and all that. What I'm trying to get at are the implications or what you want to call it where you can run around with a harem of ghouls in Dalaran, making the computers the cry already when in there, cry more.

Of course, I can understand how you would want actual fixes instead of stuff like this, but I take what I can and make fun with it.

Yeah, I know. But I'm not an RPer and this DK has been my main for a like a year now. The novelty has kinda worn off, ya know?

I also forgot to mention they still(as it has not been mentioned to change) do their taunt and won't be useful on fights with adds, such as Anub.

If you look, most posts get reported. Some people are just report happy. The sad thing is I am sure it buries threads that should be moderated in the reported post queue. I would wager that my posts get reported a couple dozen times a day.

If you have to insult someone to make your argument, you have already lost.
