Dk - Unholy?

[VAZE]

Ska man köra i blood eller unholy presence? Och jag får typ 100 mer dps i blood just nu (lvl 77) kommer det att ändras i lvl 80?

[Hivee]

Blood är mycket bättre, och ja, det kommer bli mera

[VAZE]

Vad menar du med att blood är bättre? Att blood presence är bättre eller att speccen är bättre?

[Hivee]

Presence (:

Specs

 

 

Generalized Spec

 

 

[blood Sub-spec Without Reaping] | 17/0/54

The most optimal single target build when poorly geared (which, in this context, is anything before 4P T9). The primary reason this spec is best at lower gear levels is due to Bladed Armor and Dark Conviction. Bladed Armor hardly scales since armor values on dps hardly scales, and thus gives a near-constant amount of AP regardless of gear level, making it a strong talent at the start, but relatively weaker as gear goes by. Dark Conviction provides a flat amount of crit, and crit gets weaker the more of it you have (i.e, 50 -> 55% crit is a smaller dps increase than 30 -> 35% crit). Once you get to 4P T9 and beyond, the two alternative specs will easily pull ahead, largely thanks to the failings of these two talents. Your auto-attack will be the highest percent of your total damage, followed by your Scourge Strike and then your Ghoul. Scourge Strike will be your hardest hitting individual ability, followed distantly by the combination of Death Coil and Unholy Blight.

 

 

Generalized Rotation

 

Single Target

 

Builds with Reaping

PS – IT – BS – BS – SS – DC – HoWSS – DC – SS – SS – DC – (DC)

Build without Reaping

PS – IT – BS – SS – BS – DC – HoWSS – BS – SS – BS – DC – DC– (DC)

The final Death Coil of the rotation is placed in parentheses as you will not always have the RP to perform it every two rune refreshes.

 

With Epidemic being taken once again, your rotation reverts back to the traditional Unholy one. Priority wise, it is the same as ever: Apply diseases (PS - IT), dump your RP if its capped (DC), burn your blood runes for Desolation and/or Death Runes (BS - BS), use your FU strike (SS), dump your RP (DC), use Horn if you have an extra gcd and are unable to do anything else (HoW).

 

 

Multi-Target / AoE

 

Initial: IT – PS – Pestilence – DnD – DC – HoWSS – BS – BB – SS – DC – DCSS – Pestilence – DnD – DC – HoW

As its name suggests, you perform the initial segment of the rotation with your first set of runes, then alternate between the second and third order of abilities for the remainder of the fight (or until diseases fall off). Do not make the mistake of repeating the initial rotation after the third; it's unnecessary with Glyph of Disease.

 

Blood Striking to proc Desolation is a larger net dps gain than Blood Boiling, for those who are curious. If Desolation is already up, then Blood Boiling becomes the clear winner, of course.

 

One common mistake players make is to Death and Decay before spreading their diseases. Doing so is a bad move (from a dps point of view. Tanking is another matter). Although it might seem like a dps gain to use Death and Decay initially so it is off cooldown sooner, it loses a lot of damage if your diseases aren't on the target (15% from Rage of Rivendare, 13% from Ebon Plague, so on). As well, spreading your diseases sooner means more raid dps thanks to Ebon Plague.
