Strangulate's cooldown has been reduced to 60 seconds, up from 120.

Here we go, something in the right direction.

Now they just need to make it not cost a blood rune.

cost a blood rune.

I don't even play a dk and it makes me cringe everytime I think about it.

Now they can adjust glyph of strangulate to remove it offgcd and rune cost and we all happy

or just make that baseline, but I don't think shadow priest silence is off the GCD, so no reason why ours should be tbh.

[flannelsoff]

They just made almost half of disc glyphs baseline, im sure the same outcome will happen with dks.

[a1entity]

WTB buff to IBF to UH and Frost specs even if its through glyph.

Because you already have an interrupt off the GCD? ;0

because it's the only silence with a cooldown of more than 45 second cooldown, is on global cooldown and costs a blood rune maybe?

but on topic, fucking finally, well needed buff anyone claiming anything else is beyond clueless

I wouldnt mind some physical prot against melees traded for some damage,at least as frost, unholy might not need any dps nerf.

My problem with strang is not the cd,its more the rune cost,but well, its better than nothing.

[Morpht]

With Strangle cd 1 min, asfixiate is useless, would be good snare effect passive for unholy spec, as could be the old desecration 4.3 cata when you use SS, NS or PS slow target or zone 5yr/10/yr 50%. Death's advance is good but is insufficient and I personally prefer desecration.

It is also ideal to remove gcd and rune cost for strangulate.

Class fixed

Warrior change stance: they dont have  gcd and no rage cost
Dk change stance: we have  gcd and runic cost(with mayor glyph) jk
Good job bliz

You can snare with plague strike if you get chilblains in 5.2. Imo Roiling Blood + Chilblains is the way to go in 5.2 because 2x icy touch + 2x blood boil > festering strike , but I don't know what glyph to drop for pestilence yet.

icy touch/dark sim seem mandatory at a high level of play, so i guess it would have to be presence one

Swap presence imo for caster teams, and dark sim for melee especially since theyre nerfing feral clone cd
Being able to keep rp against melee to lich heal along with switching to blood pres seems important, but against casters amz seemed really helpful

Maybe it is time to "unbind" ss again.

• Asphyxiate no longer costs a Blood Rune. Now has a 30 sec cooldown, down from 60 sec.

Seems pretty good. Thoughts?

[Zaephyr]

I use strang now when its double the cd, see no reason to change, asphyxiate just isn't that good

[Covlol]

if its still in same tier as chilblains than i wont use it.

[flannelsoff]

Also says it doesn't cost a blood rune anymore, but it has never had a cost. Maybe they're making strang free of cost?

[Covlol]

all these changes are nice.. but i'd rather just have bone shield back
