It's funny that people take depravity as tanking part of feat trees and desecration as dps one as there are almost no tanking tools in any of them(curse, SoC and CoI are pretty much only ones)...most of the stuff in both feat trees is oriented on making your life taps bigger, making your crits crit more often and harder. There is no feat that adds more hate to your attacks, adds armor or shields you, DTs survivability comes from taps and more dps means more taps, hence amount of DTs running in priest gear and "dps" specc.
Overall, I completely agree with noite and I think his way of solving DTs would make them balanced. Too bad it's just too much work so we'll probably see either heavy nerfing of VoM or no change at all...both of these options being bad.
you can stop thereQuote:

From what I am gathering from this thread, the main reason DTs are too strong is because of VoM, so what would you guys suggest happen to VoM? Remove it completely? Would they be fine then? Or revamp it to something more balanced?Quote:

But yeah, noite had pretty god ideas
If one does a search on Google about rpg game acrhtypes, and care to study for a while. One pretty soon realize that every game that have a TANK/DPS hybrid of the four (TANK, HEAL, DPS, AUX.), ends up with players into micromanagment rolling toons with the defensive top bonus of the TANK, and the offensive top bonus of the DPS ...
-is that the DT, well go figure ;)
I'm looking at a parse here where a DT was 1st on Basilisk fight in dps, damage taken, and healing, and no other class is close in any of the 3 categories.
Yeah, the class is weak. Any talk of class revamp begins - not ends - with nerfing VOM.
I have a mitigation build and that is totally different than most everyone else's d.p.s.build.That's all i'm going to say because every time i try to share any info i get slammed.i have over 300 days or 24x300 days played =7,000 hours on my dark templar ,I know what i'm talking about.
Lordshred. the only difference is I play pve right now and love to be able to stand in there face and take it and laugh as they slowly die.I'm sure ill get major flack for even saying this much.
