Unholy DK Arena Dark Transformation

[TumahaB]

Not a Repost - I think.

For all Unholy DKs @ PvP....

Before the Arena match starts:

1. Cast 5x Death Coil on your Ghoul
2. Wait until 2-3 seconds before the game starts and use Dark Transformationl
3. Get in fight with Ghoul Monstrosity :>
4. ???
5. Profit! Why? You save Runic Power for making damage, because you don't need to feed your "normal" Ghoul with Death Coils for its transformation for the next minute.

=> In my eyes: Big dmg push.

Bug/Exploit? Yes. Because it's not working as intended. Blizzard doesn't want this to work like it does at the moment.

Exactly why is this a bug/exploit?

Also need to add, me and my 2v2 mate.. whenever we see a DK doing that, we can EASILY avoid them by LoS'ing his pet..

So im sorry, but i dont consider this an exploit.

[jackus]

Nahh this is just like casting holy shock before arena starts, so u go out with 3 Holy powers.. Just something you do, if you know your class. But I quess 30-50% don't

[Icelancelot]

Its an exploit because arena start is supposed to clear buffs that you have, and i'm assumign Dark Transformation is a buff, and thus should be cleared when the arena starts.

i posted this here ages ago and it was flamed down for "working as intended"

Source on this "fact" ?

You'll see the fix with next patch - that should be enought :>

[haggle]

It's better to just stack it up to 5 and then activate it on ur first deathcoil. No wasted DT time.

Not a bug, more like common sense unless your a scrub

I've seen this discussed on here like 5 times already so its definitely a repost, also it was discussed in the beta on the official wow forums so the fact its not changed yet leads me to belive they either don't care or thats how they inteded it to work.

I don't see how its any different than a paladin buffing kings or a priest putting up fort tho, its a controlled buff why shouldn't we be able to start with it?
