I liked that you mentioned acclimation being powerful if you actually press it on CD. Most people I've seen don't make full use of IBF through their dungeon runs so for the general player I'd suggest skipping acclimation and putting that point into grip of the dead for the dnd slow. If you have something like Beacon, it's a good opportunity to just place dnd down for the slow, walk out a bit, and cast it safely.

This is a big true, I do generally like to encourage people to forge the habit of pressing CD's rather than avoid CDR options, but you do raise a very valid point too =)

Awesome guide, thanks for making it! One small criticism: When you have the talent trees on screen and you start talking about abilities I have no idea which ones you are referring to as a new BDK player. Maybe a quick little red circle or arrow + the abilities description on screen?

Always love watching your DK content. I have to be honest though, I am that guy with Umbilicus. It just feels great in mythic plus and the fact that the tier set actually triggers it is cool too. I didn't think it would absorb much from such a short VB but it's not bad. It sucks not having Blood Shot and I rarely die these days in the low 20s but I'm still too scared to give up cheat death.
@Darkmech Жыл бұрын
Having been in this position myself when doing title in season 1, I can say I understand your feelings here around UE however, have you actually had a log analysed? Because the moment you do, you'll find out just how much you're giving up by playing it. You're 100% better off learning to improve and press your buttons better than thinking UE is magically helping you, and I'm saying that as someone who was in the exact same position in Season 1, until Mandl came and put a foot my ass and showed me via logs.
@Jackofl3lades Жыл бұрын
@@Darkmech I've looked over my logs between the two and I will admit I'm sure there could be some gain but I'm just not feeling it. I never really touched it season one but I feel with this tier that I've gotten more value than I thought. It doesn't replace good button play but it's a decent cushion. Too many times on fortified I could just get squished in one hit even with VB and tap going into the pull. This may sound controversial but I don't put a lot into everything mandl says. Shadowlands I asked acherus why so many dks were going high mastery when vers haste was supposed to be best and he said it was just their best gearing at the time and they would go vers if they could. So instead I started talking to a lot of dks pushing mid 20s on my server and it was eye opening. Almost like how we went through a whole expansion thinking crit was pretty low priority and then suddenly woke up to realize that it's actually pretty handy
@Darkmech Жыл бұрын
Mandl, Asa and Meyra are the reason crit came to light in SL, honestly regardless if you like Mandl or not, his information isn't just his information it's reviewed by the other TC's, and the info they spit out is based on numbers, and review, not feelings. It's a game in the end of the day, so obviously play what talents you like, it's your character, but you're missing out on so much damage and healing as a result. If you ever want to know just how far you're falling short bring a log to my discord and we can show you.

I'm glad to see you back, I missed you ! 😁 Hope you and your family are doing fine. Tbh, I'm a bit lost regarding secondary stats for MM+... Kyrasis, for example, is prioritising Versa and Mastery, you are prioritising Mastery and Crit and I see a lot of players in leaderboard on rio prioritising Haste and Crit. Can you clarify these differences? I have a lot of difficulties reaching 19/20 so far, especially on fortified, and I really want to time those keystones.. also, my skill can be the issue, but I would like to understand those differences to continue to improve 😊 Thanks ❤
@Darkmech Жыл бұрын
Hey mate, thank you =D straight up honesty, none of it matters until you hit a really high key point (25-27), and even then you would likely be surprised at just how much it even matters there. All the secondaries for BDK are very close, Mastery is the worst from an offensive aspect though, but amazing at the other side. Haste and Crit is going to give you the most damage (most likely, sim ofc) Kyrasis is a very good player but has always had a tendency to draw a line straight to the largest survival ouput line which for him would be Vers/Mastery. At 19/20/21/22 none of it matters, pressing your buttons is the most important thing. Haste/Crit, Haste/Mastery are all great choices, there is also nothing wrong with Vers.

How difficult is it to use this tank, I'm between monk and dk but I think it's more fun to heal yourself and remove anxiety from your heal
@Darkmech Жыл бұрын
I would say most tanks are pretty simplistic these days, however, some are certainly more involved than others. DK for me is the #1 tank to play due to having so much agency of your health. It has a bit of learning curve but is very rewarding when played well and has A LOT less buttons in the rotation than a Brewmaster =)
