Strengths: Dark Arbiter and all of the talents in this build focus primarily on single target damage, and thus deals the greatest single target damage of all available builds. This value of Haste must remain active for at least the 18 seconds of her active casting duration to be effective. Higher values can be reached with Bloodlust/Heroism/Drums). (Meaning you will have 13 attacks if you can maintain 48% Haste during her duration. She now enters, and begins casting within approximately 2 seconds, with a slight (.5) second delay at times after the 2 second entrance.Īt 15, 20, 28, 32, and 37% Haste, you gain extra GCDs during the duration of Arbiter, allowing you more chances to empower her attacks.Īt 14, 23, 34, 48, 56, 67, 77, and 89% Haste, your Arbiter will gain an additional cast of Val’kyr Strike (up from her base 9) per breakpoint, during her duration.
There are two different types of Breakpoints associated with Dark Arbiter, now, based on a recent (seemingly stealth) change that has standardized her entrance animation somewhat. Stat Priority: Strength > Mastery > Haste => Critical Strike => Versatility Many guides will recommend the usage of Convergence of Fates in tandem with Dark Arbiter, but the spec is perfectly playable, and still very strong even without the use of this trinket. Her power increases per point of Runic Power spent during her duration, so the key to maximizing her strength is to pool and spend the most possible Runic Power during the 20 seconds she is active. Overview: This talent setup focuses on maximizing single target damage through the use of Dark Arbiter as a cooldown. Of note, I will be including a discussion of talents that aren’t touched on in any given build, along with a short explanation of why they are not taken. Here we’ll take a look at each, as well as the top 3 recommended legendaries for each spec (In addition to the keystone legendary, if there is a specific legendary necessary for the spec to function properly). There are several usable talent builds for Unholy, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. – Updated Dark Arbiter spec Haste Breakpoint information.
– Removed mention of Path of Frost usage for T20 4pc bonus. With these things in mind, let’s get into how you actually play an Unholy Death Knight. For a more basic breakdown that covers the absolute basics of Unholy, please visit the guide on Wowhead. This guide will assume you already have a basic understanding of how Unholy’s basic abilities already work, and will be skipping much of that preamble, in order to maintain a focus on the intermediate and advanced mechanics of playing Unholy as a DPS spec in endgame dungeons and raids. Our disease repertoire includes a potent plague, in Virulent Plague, as well as the ability to apply festering lesions to our targets that explode violently for damage.Ĭompared to most other classes, our mobility is limited or non-existent, so please be aware of this before you decide to play Death Knight you will need to be very aware of your positioning and ensure that you have plenty of time to avoid mechanics that require you to move quickly. We have a permanent pet in the Ghoul or Abomination, and several temporary pets, including a platoon of Ghouls and a Gargoyle we can summon to our command, and potentially, a mighty Val’kyr Battlemaiden in place of our Gargoyle. It is most recognizably a cross between a dot class and a pet class. Unholy is a Death Knight specialization that focuses on dealing wide area damage via diseases and undead minions.
