The icebound fortitude is a seriously welcome change, but the healing nerf to death strike makes me a sad panda because i have been stacking mastery as a tank :/.

Also I hope this isn't all they've done to increase mobility for death knights (ibf/necrosis) because we are still hard countered by frost mages and hunters at the same skill level which is a serious annoyance due to their popularity in PvP.

I've been stacking mastery as well because it's so nice right now. I really liked how we weren't forced into being stam stackers. I REALLY liked being able to pay attention to socket bonuses and gem for them. I guess I'll have to go back to the wrath era tanking ethos of, "don't even try to think hard about tanking, just stack stamina!" It's seriously unfortunate.

Plus, I thought they wanted to give us Frost DKs a reason to use it if we had to, you know to help healers. This change makes it un-sexy...
