Granted, he had a tough spec for pvp (only control is shadowfury stun. also fear, but he never used that). Do you worry that death knights will be overpowered?

If you need to CC ASAP, you can't afford to spend a couple more Runes and activate a couple more GCDs before you reach the Ruinic Power threshold. <BR/><BR/>Think of all the situations where you wouldn't be able to Hungering Cold for 50 Ruinic Power when you needed to, or think of all the situations where you wouldn't want to Hungering Cold for 50 Ruinic Power when they're PvP trinket or dispells were active.<BR/><BR/>Reaching 50 Ruinic Power is a lot worse than casting a Death Coil and then casting a Hungering Cold if you don't want to freeze them for an entire bar's worth.Breathweaponhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01244425985184235749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863412955392305799.post-44909528084345570592008-08-01T08:32:00.000-06:002008-08-01T08:32:00.000-06:00Uhm, it IS like that. >_>Uhm, it IS like that. >_>Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00384554437096427217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863412955392305799.post-59810006028004667272008-08-01T08:31:00.000-06:002008-08-01T08:31:00.000-06:00Hungering Cold needs to be 10 Ruinic Power for 2 s...Hungering Cold needs to be 10 Ruinic Power for 2 seconds of freeze, and then it needs to add 2 seconds of freeze for each 10 Ruinic Power after that.<BR/><BR/>So if you have 10 Ruinic Power, you may freeze for 2 seconds, if you have 20 Ruinic Power you may freeze for 4 seconds, if you have 30 Ruinic Power you may may freeze for 6 seconds etc. so Hungering Cold is a 100% Ruinic Power dump that scales based on the amount of Ruinic Power you have.Breathweaponhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01244425985184235749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863412955392305799.post-66963637275526204932008-08-01T06:20:00.000-06:002008-08-01T06:20:00.000-06:00Oh Hell Yes!

As someone who's been planning to go for the HC Frost spec since I saw it, it's good to see it in action in a PvP standpoint. Not only is it an excellent CC ability, but combined with Howling Blast it just drips awesomeness.<BR/><BR/>A question though. Is Lichborne a super essential ability. I was planning to take some blood talents instead to use in a spec more for tanking. Bladed Armor, Forceful Deflection, and Improved Blood Strike to combine with Blood of the North. Maybe even Improved Rune Tap. I've heard a lot of talk that says Lichborne is the way to go for tanking.

Talks were going around that Unholy was going to be the PVP spec, Blood PVE Dps, Frost Tank, but when I saw the talents I definetly saw the things given to unholy, but some of the best are at the top of the tree. <BR/><BR/>Frost give two things that I really like, a slow to your icy touch / mind freeze, and hungering cold a CC. Both of these skills are very important for PVP since deathknights get kited around so easily without them. Personally I think Icy touch needs a slow from the start, and talents that buff that slow.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, HC + Howling Blast is definetly a powerful combo. I saw a video of a guy with the Killing Machine talent, and when it procced he did that combo for the guarenteed crit. Deathchill works, but requires RP which Hungering cold gets rid of.<BR/><BR/>Overall great video, I lol'd at the honor hold guard CC because I just killed 20 afk allies there a few days ago and had to bubble to run from the guards.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work, and hopefully we can see an 80 level cap here in the upcoming weeks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863412955392305799.post-60744569438913233282008-07-31T23:55:00.000-06:002008-07-31T23:55:00.000-06:00For arenas?
