Thread: DRK Change in Patch 3.07

Will be nice to try it out though, to see if the changes makes a impact. I suppose you will mainly notice this if you are OT.

Which is suspect is the point to the change.

With old BW :
15 = 7 abilities = 2 combos of 190TP plus an additionnal 70TP = 450 TP spent. Recovery is 60TP every 3s, so 300 recovered for net -150TP.

So you "save" 90 TP every 40s, not that bad. Doesn't do anything when MT'ing though. But I guess you could pop some Unmend to keep your TP afloat.

You're saving 90 when compared to the previous Blood Weapon.

What's the point of comparing the TP drain with and without Blood Weapon ? You don't need to prove that you burn TP faster with BW...

Blood Weapon will now be a (very minor) TP gain though. Without BW you have a net -80 over the 15s window, with BW a net -60 over the 15s window, so a slight reduction in TP spent.

It's still useless to compare the two...

Blood Weapon IS a DPS gain, so, you'd have used it anyway.
Before patch 3.07, it was a TP loss of 150TP, now it's a TP loss of 60TP.

Ya will give it ago tonight, one more level to go on DRK. See the changes in effect.

Does BW still absorb mp? I kinda liked getting the most out of ogcd with it on.

Because if it just saves on tp now, shouldn't it be able to be used while in grit?

Also, why is living dead still a crapshoot to use?
