I feel no further comment is needed.
Blood DK’s are just wrong.
The hubby keeps trying to poke me into playing Touga as a blood DK. I don’t mind it for solo stuff, but 1. I hate tanking for groups and 2. I don’t wanna bother spending time getting tank gear when the next xpac is going to baseline the stats across gear anyway (ie: caster mail becomes agility mail when you switch from rest to enhancement, ect)
You can use haste/mastery DPS gear as a blood DK and it works pretty well, you just lose a bit of DPS from Riposte.
I knew mastery was pretty beast for blood DK’s, but is it to the point that you can completely and totally ignore dodge and parry? 😮
Mastery is really good and generally preferred over dodge/parry given its dimishing returns and the fact that dodging and parrying relies on the RNG. Plus you can manually trigger blood shield to absorb incoming damage. I basically ignored dodge/parry through all of Tier 15 and did just fine. I’m actually paying attention to it in T16 just because dodge/parry gives me 75% of its rating as crit.
