    Bringing a DRK with a WAR specifically to abuse the 20% reduced damage is something that should be explored as a good reason to bring a DRK.
    Yes, a flat % damage reduction is better than a % strength reduction which will only affect physical damage. However you are glossing over a point I made in the quoted post as well as something that needs to be considered if comparing the two. RoH can be easily maintained 100% of the time while Reprisal at best could be maintained 67% of the time with a 20 second duration and 30 second cooldown and that is assuming that you are consistently getting parry to proc as the cooldown is expiring which is not necessarily going to happen.

    Point being, Reprisal is not way better than RoH both functionally and due to its unreliable nature and that is where the issue that many people have with that ability, that it is unreliable.
