exactly what i needed for my first dugeons to tank as blood. And i can come back later to learn about the detailed tricks you mentioned when i learned the basics.So good video for both basics + advanced stuff
Thanks for the guide I'm gonna be main blood dk tank this season and never played as a dk but this guide is very helpful for me. If you make a guide for frost dk it would be very helpful you are amazing thanks for the tips anyway
They must have changed up the threat generation quite a bit. Back in Legion and BfA, I throw a blood plague or 2 and EVERYTHING is focused on me. Just got to 80 and did a follower dungeon for my first dungeon... Bro, I could barely keep the mobs off the followers.
Blood boil related question: how often does bb tick? Assuming it's 1.5 sec, if I bb the 1st global, after 1 sec, in .5 sec comes in a tick of bb, I cast bb again, it refreshes the duration of bb, does it cancel the original tick of bb?
Yo i've been trying to make friendly nameplates smol like you do, can't find the commands for it can someone pls tell me the cvar names and values pls?
Hey Yoda, thanks for this - the BDK opener has felt kind of bloated but this is very helpful. Question: Didn't hear much about blood boil, is that a trap use of a GCD on cooldown? I find myself having a hard time not just smashing it on CD, but it seems like there are better ways to increase AOE dps.
I keep hearing death strike back to back is not ideal now, I understand why this is but is capping RP just inevitable if you don't dump with it sometimes?
Runic power gain was nerfed in conjunction with the look back window changes so you have less RP available than seasons 3 and 4 of dragonflight. Also during high damage periods you’ll still be able to deathstrike more often than every 5 seconds, you just can’t double dip anymore. Lastly, haste is now your lowest priority stat and with the new xpac scaling it’s likely RP capping shouldn’t be an issue. At the end of the day if you’re death striking back to back just to avoid capping RP you’re either flubbing your rotation really bad and just not death striking for extended periods of time when you otherwise should be or you’re taking so little damage that you haven’t needed to death strike and at that point you probably could be hitting your buttons randomly and not dying
Blood dk damage is so bad…so bad. I can’t remember a time when it’s been this bad in comparison to other tanks. Single target only both level 80 my bear Druid does over twice the dps over 5 and 10 minutes than my dk - and the Druid is 30 ilvls lower.
Not sure if ur trolling, but I want to swap to DH and this guide seemed aimed for someone who’s already familiar with DH. So I’ll come back when I’m max level and I bet it’ll make sense.
@@The0nlyy troll, i didnt watch it at all just skipped through it, but its just yapping without actually showing stuff on screen, couldve at least shown the basic skills etc with some pictures/showing the actual skill icons + names just more graphical stuff, just talking and nothing really else is just no effort laziness to pump out vids for clicks without quality, especially for new players like me :)
@@mp7bdo Just learn basics before you try an advanced iun depth guide. If you need to get shown the icons of spells he´s talking about maybe just spend some time in your talent tree and spellbok learning the spells :)
This is not a rotation guide, you were just talking about the abilities and how they work. A rotation guide should tell someone which abilities are priority to use in what order in what situations.
@@CMBA1297 did you watch the video? He gives no concrete examples at all. I would expect something like "Here's your standard opener" and "Here's your AOE priority order". It's fine to call it a BDK ability guide because he explains each ability well, but it is not a rotation guide.
This was a conscious choice, the main reason is that most of the actions in any sort of priority list would be conditional so I thought it was more useful to explain the conditions. Which one you do in which order is not super important.
gotta love the default subtitles calling it "dancing urine weapon" lol
Im trying blood dk for the first time this xpack and im loving it.
same here. I haven't properly played since Legion. The overwhelm is real hahaha.

Thanks for helping me learn to tank this season man! As a healer main it’s a weird switch lol
Great guide yet again! Thank you so much for making these, man! Gained a subscriber for sure.

The information in the video is useful, but I almost can't focus on it because of the constant neurotic running and quick camera movements. :(
This was great, thanks. Thorough.
blood boil damage per cast is higher than heart strike. For pure damage use blood plague for higher dps.

Going from a dps to a tank is jarring a bit. Thanks for the video.
What mog are you using? It looks like the new PVP/Raid set but its white glow and steel color? Is this the normal type color variation?
May i ask about the weakaura you use in the middle of the screen that track the CD and duration of the skills?
pls do one for frost!
frost next, thanks!

Weak aura for coagulopathy?
Any chance we could get one of these for frost dk?
Unfortunately I don't consider myself enough of an expert on frost DK to make one of these.
Check out Biceppumps
Yo i've been trying to make friendly nameplates smol like you do, can't find the commands for it can someone pls tell me the cvar names and values pls?
getting sea sick wacthing it, stop moving around all the time
hey do you mind sharing your weak aura?

It's mainly used to apply blood plague though you can use it for damage if you have 3 runes on cd already and don't need to heartstrike for RP.
Is imp vamp blood so good? Feels like you lose a lot with no imp h-strike instead of it
It's very noticeable in high keys, but if you will never die then improved heart strike obviously offers higher dps.
Please do one for Frost and Unholy!!!🎉
VG Dh when :D ?
Nice
Does anyone know the macro to get AMS to drop at your feed rather than having to drag and drop it
You want the [@player] modifier
can i have your mouse weak aura pls

Please spin your screen more. I did not have enough seizures and only a slight migraine.

I'll just stick to prot war and scream at things untill they die 😂
Calm down dude
Kinda really hate the death strike change ngl
why do you have to constantly move around on the screen when explaining stuff? so distracting...best of luck to you in future vids, but not for me.
this guide is very confusing! put more time into it next time.

This is not a rotation guide, you were just talking about the abilities and how they work. A rotation guide should tell someone which abilities are priority to use in what order in what situations.
he does tell you what to use and when, at the end of the day, dk as with most tanks are situational, there isnt a dps rotation, just learn to play

@@CMBA1297 and there is absolutely a DPS rotation, that's how the theory crafters build the APL that powers the sims
u do have a point. Though from a purely tanking perspective rotation is priority usage since ur focus is to survive
