DKs just received 2 stealth buffs. IBF has been increased to 30% base and Frost Presence has been buffed from 6% to 8% stam.

Fyi, Blue has stated Nibelung getting buff to 2% chance.

MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Nibelung: Why it should be reevaluated.

If i understood what i just read (bluepost on mmo-champion) correctly bloodcraze should be affected.

If you're waiting 30s into a fight to use your cooldowns for the first time, there's a decent chance you may be clipping one last use at the end of a fight, and actually losing DPS by doing so.

As for Haste potion, yes still save for Heroism. Some people pre-pot (using a potion before combat begins, which lets you use another one later in the fight since you don't get the "debuff" for using a potion until your second). You may miss being able to use it during Heroism\Bloodlust depending on when the call is, though.

Thanks for this advice. I ended up with blowing every CD I have whenever they are avaible, granted that a 5stack sunder is on. The only exception is when I *know* that heroism is arriving in a short period of time, but it's not often..
This change of playstyle sendt me up a few hundred DPS

Hi. I am very confuse regarding a few issues. First, Death Embrace, when a "patchwerk" style fight where i can literally stay on the boss full time, while rolling corruption crits with NMC trinket. Do i overwrite a new corruption even if my NMC trinket is not up? Secondly, on Saronite bombs, I can't seems to fit in the bomb to my normal dps rotation. Any care to share them?

Halls of Reflection's "exploit" was fixed, when behind Arthas you now take constant damage.

Edit: received an infraction for posting this because apparently it's not useful information which belongs in the undocumented changes threat. Sigh.

lol, I can imagine it now...that's funny ;P

First attempt i found the druid standing next to me doing nothing when raid healing was at a lull and me going full throttle on the tank to keep him up. He got nudge and started to help out on the tank when the stacks get high.

Its not impossible to keep the tank alive by yourself with the use of your own CD and the tanks using theres aswell. Just ensure you dont both pop them at the same time. If raid damage is at a lull point, the other healers should really be helping out aswell unless they are regaining mana which should be unlikely.

Hello,

pls could someone post the macro he uses to include rend into the rotation?

Plesner · 02/05/10, 9:02 AM

Just a quick question, that I haven't been able to find the answer for using the search function.

Does Ep values for crit and agi (those in the first post) (for mutilate) take 3/3 Focused into account?

Hi is there any solution to change poison configuration easely ?

Note the damage of Serpent Sting was not increased after I was bit, nor was it increased when I refreshed with Chim. This means that Essence of the Blood Queen, like all other %dmg modifiers, requires Serpent to manually be reapplied.

Seems like you said almost the exact same thing as he did?

Rahdik · 02/05/10, 9:10 AM

What the hell is a dague?

If you want to try fast MH fast OH that's fine, mutilate isn't so much about the speed, you use your higher DPS daggers (with a little common sense).

If they're both 1.4 speed, DP/IP vs. IP/DP shouldn't matter. If they are different speeds, you always want DP on the faster dagger.

I'd say the reference to Saronite bombs is a reference to the reason of a 72hours long ban after a world first, but I might be wrong
