Understanding the Frost Death Knight’s Playstyle
Unlike other classes, which rely on simple resource generation and consumption, the Frost Death Knight has two interconnected resources: Runes and Rune Power. This means that playing the Frost Death Knight is not just about generating resources and spending them on abilities. Instead, it requires a deep understanding of the class’s abilities and effective management of cool-downs and burst windows.
For example, Pillar of Frost has a 1-minute cool-down and increases Strength by 30% for 12 seconds. To maximize damage output during this window, you’ll need to save up enough resources to augment your abilities and use them as much as possible during the 12-second window.
Hero Talent Breakdown
Currently, I recommend the Deathbringer build over the Rider of the Apocalypse hero talent. Deathbringer increases overall damage output, mainly through the powerful ability Reaper’s Mark, which stacks up to 40 and deals increased damage to marked targets. When a marked target dies, the mark spreads to another target.
Exterminate’s talent also allows you to chain Reaper’s Mark to other targets, making the next Obliterate free and summoning two scythes to fight alongside you. These scythes have a chance to spread Reaper’s Mark to other enemies, increasing multi-target damage.
Reaper’s Mark is a versatile talent that excels in both single-target and multi-target situations.
On the other hand, the Rider of the Apocalypse is an exciting build that summons a random mount to ride into battle or summon a undead charger to ride, but its overall damage output is inferior to Deathbringer.
