immunity is probably shared with mobs who are immune to drain life (pretty much all robots and constructs since they have no "life" to drain)

Close enough, welcome back Blood DK!

I've been critical of TotG and gore drinker. I hadn't connected it with the fact that they've stated they're using the TBC item budgets concerning stamina. It should be significantly better than I thought when everyone has +50% stamina compared to Classic, and will definitely be a very nice racial for open world farming, but I very much doubt it will enable much solo shenanigans at higher levels.

My only undead was a rogue, but touch of the grave was consistently my 3rd highest dps after Auto Attacks and Sinister Strike even out Preforming poisons

Because of the higher proc  rate on spells, undead mage and warlock might be huge

@6:31 this is when the  pull begins

@7:43 this is where you would've died had you not been undead, the healing done by totg is higher than you're current health. ~70 seconds after pull

@8:23 this is when the fight ends. ~40 seconds later .. so this is defintely only possible with it. Other races would have to deal all the damage you did in that 40s, within the first 70 seconds, in order to not die.

Yeah this is exactly what i expected and wrote in your last video, TOTG gives you more time to get more TOTG. The longer the time to kill the tank, the more the difference between an UD and non-undead tank becomes apparent in this. Kinda shocked how ppl still are downplaying it, it's gonna get nerfed. Yeah aoe is the best case for it, but still.

Somehow getting choice paralysis between UD and troll for enabling ability to solo stuff

It shocks me every time I remember Kall isn't a short white guy with a beard like his youtube avatar makes me think.

I’ve always main warrior but I was going to roll pally this time around so I wouldn’t die constantly trying to kill 2 mobs at once. Have me rethinking everything!

If nothing changes I think Im going for the undead. The goredrinker fury/prot build with lifestealing enchant, that one chestpiece, maybe even skullflame... Its about reaching a point of critical mass of self sustain to me. I think it will be very good. That and they just look pretty sick.

That and when combined with victory rush and cannibalize I will save alot of money on food.

“I have a question about this: how, and whether at all, does it affect threat while tanking? Do we already know whether it generates threat like healing does, and if so, how much? Or is there no information on that yet?

And yes, I’m aware it probably won’t be as important as it was in Classic, even though I’m hoping threat will still be a thing in Forever. :-s”

you popped in my recommendations because i've been listening to Frank Zappa

Touch of the grave turns retaliation into a defensive AND offensive cooldown

Damage over time ticks don’t proc it, however unless they changed it recently it DOES proc on the initial cast of a dot skill. So bane of agony, or corruption on warlock for example, will proc when they are used but not on the ticks, so it is still kind of decent for that.

Constructs have always been immune to life drain effects, machine type monsters.

Gonna do a Tauren prot warrior. Love plainsrunning and Endurance just keeps looking better in comparison with more and more evidence

Touch of the grave does shadow damage, só probably this mob is immune to shadow damage. Other thing to note is that priest, warlock and mage have 10% chance to proc and it's includes wands attacks. Arcane missiles are the only channeling that every missile alone have a chance to proc

I'd like to see you test how touch of the grave affects as a damage boost for ranged classes. If I remember right ranged attacks have a 10% proc chance, double that of melee attacks.

on rogue it will make wep speed a factor if its only 1sec gcd then you want a wep that does 1.01+ attack speed with slice and dice up... it's stupid strong

This would be awesome with my hunter.

Keen to try this with a melee warlock.

Macro melee attacks with every spell cast. Pair with a fast weapon and you have 10% chance per spell cast and 5% chance per melee hit for a combined 15% chance per GCD.

I want to try a demonology build that uses  demonic brand to make searing pain a viable filler spell. Searing Pains short cast speed would maximise my chances to proc touch of the grave and cover health loss from life tap.
