yeah i was looking at that too. The ruby gonna give AS and Average damage? cool man. We should quickly level to 100 and unsocket the ruby. =D

I hope they give us a skill buff preferably passive. Smth like a AS boost.

i think Skorn users gonna benefit the most.

Patch 1.0.7 DH

I think this is what we need

1. Massive boost to the proc rate of NS. I'm pretty sure none of us are happy with the current proc rate. Too low IMO.

2. Hatred on CRIT. NS should be giving hatred on CRIT as well to make us a truly DPS class. I am currently a 300k DPS DH but when i party in a team, i don't feel like i'm making a big difference or contributing a lot to the team. I think at the moment, we are awesome for facerolling low MP only.

3. Shadow Power has to be reworked to be a DPS skill and not just life steal. Something like berserker of the barb?

4. Smoke Screen HAS GOT TO BE BUFF. I think the 3s smoke screen should make a come back. A guy on EU suggested that you get 3s but loses it when u start attacking. I think that's fair.

5. Skill synergies? Currently i can only think of caltrops + cluster bombs. Caltrops maybe should immobilize the foe long enough for echo blast to work.

6. Sentry. Guardian Turret is nice but i don't want to be a field medic man. Give us a crit or AS boost when we pop sentry. I don't want heal or damage reduction. I want DPS.

I think we all know is not cheap to upgrade a DH. So i think when we get to a certain DPS level, we wanna feel that those numbers actually matter. To be honest, whenever i play with a barb, i feel sad. A 150k DPS barb spamming HOTA is doing 3x my damage even though i have double his paper DPS. I don't think it should be that way.

No doubt i think we are a pretty balanced class atm but i think our DPS should matter when in a team.

What's wrong with DH? Great for facerolling low mp but no viable mechanics to make it a strong class on high MP.

Hello Guys,

Any of you plays PTR????

I never play PTR but yeah since wKkay say i can play with you guys, i might give it a try.

morningstar5770 yeah i wanted to try 4 DH on PTR as well. XD

So if any of you do play, let me know and i'll download the client when PTR is out.

@All members of the DH Brethren,

It seems that Blizzard decide not to shower us with any love on patch 1.0.7. Is not a bad thing as based on past experience, we always get the nerf hammer so maybe zero changes is not that bad after all.

Fear not, the DH will be the best PVP (or dueling) class.

1. Barbs
- 95% plays WW barb and their gears are probably geared towards that (not sure on this) and we all know WW barb sucks vs Kulle.
- For players who prefers mashing two buttons (no skil required)
- HOTA? Maybe it'll work on monks.
- Wep Throw barb? tricky, will think of smth to counter them

2. Wiz
- CM Wiz? teleport has cool down so i don't regard them as a threat at all.

3. Witch Doctor
- 0 CD c4 dogs? is basically a CM wiz with chain explosion but no freeze. or the mad dogs can act as homing missiles but i think we can out maneuver them.
- probably the hardest class to kill due to their mass ranks of mobs.

4. Monks
- I think tricky to duel with them because of their FoT, Dashing Strike and the annoying serenity. BUT
- I've check the monks here and DH here. EHP wise, we are not that far behind them and some of us even have more than them.
- We have the advantage here because if each of us have 550k EHP or more, those monk won't be able to burst 550k of damage in one shot. They have say 700k EHP and i'm pretty sure we can burst 700k of damage in one shot.

p.s: Feel free to add more flaming/trolling/anything here that might help us deal with the rest better. #peace

Good luck and Godspeed

Gloom for 5 seconds is enough. We can chain gloom btw.

Shouldn't reply on crit to gain DISC then. Bring as much DISC as you can to PVP.

life steal only works if they hit us. =D

Hey guys,

i've tried dueling in PTR. Smoke screen is GOD!!!!

now let's find all the monk/barbs and kill them =D

I've tried it.

Impale + HA + Evasive Fire.

Hi guys,

WD is really dangerous..

pro is playing but his gears are bad now cuz he sold his imba gears.

did you see how kongor got owned? haha

yeah me too. Pro is amazing. Are you on PTR as well?

impale. But i think barbs are gonna be troublesome to one shot. WD worst. I had no DISC and got hex. Rest of the story no need tell la.

My PVP build

HA: DA
Impale: Impact
CA: LfB
Evasive: Covering Fire
Prep: Backup
SS: Lingering

don't really need prep. Impale insta kill.

passive: TA, ARchery, Sharpshooter (GOD)

My PVP Kill List

WW barbs - Check
Shield barbs - Check

Wiz (storm armor) - check

Monk (SSS) - check
Monk (no SSS) - check

i'm just missing WD now.

nope no need gloom. wasting DISC. Use SS, impale and stun and LfB. bye bye

n btw, evasive fire is awesome. Insta hit

Evasive fire can be swap with multishot. Also not bad.

why taL? aren't you a WF user?

Haha, come join PTR la. I learn a lot from wKKay also. his strafe build is solid.
