Exactly, sorry you don’t got choices

When you know what options you have, you got choices. When you don't know anything, you don't have a choice because you are just rolling a dice in terms of what you pick.

It doesn’t matter what the dice hit, everyone gets free draft loot. You should know that’s all y’all get. Hope that helps.

Free loot still takes a long time to get due to drop rates. Sorry you gotta wait 2+ years with a less optimal character.

Knight loot is basically free in any guild

You are seeing maybe 5-10 Soul Defilers drop per year. If you aren't at the raid that week, or another guild gets it, you can be waiting months per drop. Due to it's rarity, you have more chance of being outbid as well. The common Knight loot is basically free, the rare stuff is still expensive. I've seen Soul Defiler go for 800+ DKP.

Willsappers are heavily contested too last time I checked. Good luck getting one with all the other melees who want one.

SKs take longer to gear than Paladins because their Epic is harder and Soul Defiler is rare and expensive.

I am not saying you can't get Willsapper, it is simply not a free Knight drop. It is more contested and costs more DKP generally.

Saving mana on a Knight is essential, as it is their biggest bottleneck. Blood Ember fills that role when you don't have Soul Defiler. Once you have Soul Defiler, Blood Ember loses some value because you are regenerating like 12 mana per tick with FT1 and FT2. You're getting a free Engulfing Darkness or FD every 30 seconds. I'd still use Blood Ember, but 12 mana per tick makes being lazy more tempting.

I’m just saying knight loot in general is basically free compared to every other class, and being over geared makes content easy.

I agree with your assessment that a lot of Knight gear is cheap DKP-wise.

I'm just saying Blood Ember + Troll Regen is still helpful when fully geared. Saving 120 mana on FD because you clicked pants instead of casting Death's Peace is half of a Drain Soul, and Troll Regen cancels out the -10 HP/Tick from Soul Defiler.

Even when just fighting difficult static mobs like a Cliff Golem, you can FD to let your pet take some damage while you heal up from Epic Proc. If you do that a few times in the fight with Blood Ember Greaves you have 1-2 more Drain Souls than someone without Blood Ember.

Says a guy who's not 60, nor fully geared. Repeating yourself over and over again does not make you more qualified to answer questions you're not qualified to answer. Consider stating your point once and not spamming every thread you participate in.
