[REJECTED] [Death Knight][Unholy] Necrotic Strike (Critical Bug)

[Hashtagblue]

WoW Freakz spell link: https://www.wow-freakz.com/spells.php?spell=73975&name=necrotic-strike
Bug description: The amount of absorb Necrotic Strike is doing is beyond its normal bringing unbalance into PvP due to not being affected by PvP Power.
Proof: My stats:

Attack Power: 43,644
PvP Power: 39.35%

Absorb Formula (with PvP power, which should NOT affect Necrotic Strike's absorb)

Absorb = AP*2,25 (225% of attack power) 43.644 *2,25 = 98199

98199*1,3935(pvp power) = 136840,3065

75% of 136840,3065 = 136840,3065 *0,75 = 102630,229875

136840,3065 - 102630,229875 = 34210,076625

Current Necrotics = 34209

Without PvP power :

43.644 *2,25 = 98199

75% of 98199 = 73649,25

98199-73649,25 = 24550 <--The correct Necrotic Strike absorb)

Instead of that, I found a high-rated unholy dk guide which says: "it is useless to gem pvp power or compliment any pvp power socket bonus, considering a full blown strength gem is going to be more beneficial. Also PvP power gems do not affect the health absorption stack of your necrotic strike." Link: http://es.wowhead.com/guide=2438/unholy-death-knight-pvp-guide-gearing-up-pressure-and-utility#tabs-name-gemming

That's another reason why high rated dks ignored pvp power on their gems, using 160 str on mostly all their sockets.

Note: Necrotic Strike's absorb doesn't benefit from Mastery nor PvP Power, but is affected by the target's PvP resilience.

Confirmed!

The absorb amount should not be affected by PVP Power.
PVP Power should only affect the damage part of the spell, not the absorb too, as the absorb part is nor healing or damage done.

Unconfirmed / Rejected. This is like the 3rd post about NS, I won't even bother to do 1 million calculations again just to prove you're wrong.
