Unholy Deathknight Advanced DPS Guide 4.3

[@skindigo2819]

first vid of yours that I watched preach, got me into UDK and into some higher level raiding in early MOP, just looked this up again for some nostalgia, keep on keeping on preacher man :)

[@MultiUnknowen]

its 2013 and still watching 4.3 melee guides

[@TheScott1693]

think i'll try out the mexican blood tap tonight, thanks preach :D

[@ApparitionShadow]

Awesome vids, thanks to you my dps is much better on my DK. Thanks a ton! Brofists all around!

[@go2hell4eva]

mastery does indeed become better than crit once you have gurthalak and especially if you have the t13 4p too

[@TheMikeBravo]

Nice vid! Helped me out alot :) Tho, Do a ColorCurve correct on the overlay. To remove the pink look : )

[@Arduous087]

@eeboya At the moment it's generally considered the more consistently high DPS spec, but it is difficult to play and get used to in comparison to the other specs.

[@Oabize]

How time change if look back unholy dk was easiet class in cataclysm.

[@XXXpallisterXXX]

Preach is the fuckin' man! Deserves drastically more attention, the amount of effort he puts into his video's is great. One day man, you'll be up there with Hobbs, Swifty, Total Biscuit, WoWCrendor ect. Keep up the awsome work man!

[@go2hell4eva]

indeed however wowreforge and askmrrobot both rated the lfr gear above t12 hc due to the more powerful bonuses, the 6% increased damage to SS was ok but more dc procs and 10% more shadow damage every now and again can only be a good thing ^^

[@Comradebliss]

I have read that too can't say for sure since im not a math nerd but atleast that is what elite jerks recommend. I also read that u can dark sim shattered ice on hagara and it should hit for some obcene amounts of dmg.

[@Preachgaming]

@TheAlexby MEXICAN BLOOD TAPS FOR ALL! no homo

[@Supaship6000]

Question: I've read places that if you're using Gurth (the 2h Str weapon off of madness) the gear priority changes so that mastery bumps ahead of crit... Your opinion?

[@Retpwnzyalol]

Unholy topped charts back there.

[@iamuser123456789]

Preach do you not do DS on your Dk? Or is the heroic fl gear better or something

[@Frstypwngaming]

Looking back at this it was so wrong. With gurthalak, being the ideal setup and the only way Unholy was actually viable and even then being worse on madness, you still prioritized expertise for the weapon swing changes to proc tentacles and then mastery was second to haste below 24% then crit.

[@Frstypwngaming]

Completely disregarding expertise was *Insert Puking Emoji Here* because of how much of a damage loss it truly was, and honestly if skipping expertise was the understood meta at the time then people are more dumb that I had previously believed

[@Frstypwngaming]

@@novinceinhosic3531 you never used rune strike as unholy because it was a blood ability. Death Coil was the RP spender, and even without gurthalak expertise simmed massively ahead of every stat except for hit when under the 26 expertise cap (23 as Orc, best race). Without gurthalak the only difference was you prioritized crit over mastery and still capped at 2400 haste

[@Frstypwngaming]

@@novinceinhosic3531 death coil had hit cap at 8% which was really easy to get and by 4.3 you would always reforge out of hit to haste mastery or crit, and you would cap rune regeneration at 2420~ haste. Mastery didn't scale pet damage except for the tentacles from gurth so without it mastery wasn't efficient because of the 4.0.3 unholy dk nerfs. Expertise had a higher % miss chance if you weren't capped, and you wanted to maintain your diseases through festering strike extending them for 6 seconds at the cost of two runes, but you only ever wanted to keep it active for a minute through as to not waste outbreak 1m CD

[@OljeiKhan]

"And even then being worse on madness" Do you mean Unholy was worse than Frost or am i misunderstanding?

[@Frstypwngaming]

@@OljeiKhan on madness, as in on madness or deathwing. As in on the end tier boss

[@Lucaszorakk]

I was thinking about asking you for this guide like 8h ago! How long have you been reading my mind?! lol

[@jigsaw7107]

lol transcribe audio at 9:37 "uh... mister blitzer bleaching six kids and offering a wombat three senate words"

[@UnseenNinja52]

Great video as always.

[@legendBrett]

preach my man, what rune addon, do you use?

[@h8ste25]

@iwontpostvideos so you would like to think but it still happens and am specced for it.

[@Aaron118247]

Unholy Frenzy and Hero do work together because your gargoyle will get 125% haste

[@wearetwitternow]

You can also go frost , then go back unholy so you dont have to blood tap anymore.

[@shadow8767]

FIRE MAGE! FIRE MAGE! FIRE MAGE!

[@itsMilkow]

advanced resto shamaaaaaan!!!!

[@eeboya]

Sub rogue adv. guide due to the fact that the legendary stacks faster in that spec/ will it make it the best rogue spec with the new dagger?

[@Emutus33]

Timmy crits like a fucking truck!

[@TheSpunkBucket]

Yes. Only with Gurthy.

[@mrdanijel]

awesome video

[@tankthis85]

Preach, what mod are you using for your runes?

[@Plwmar]

Yeah mate.Crit before gurthalak is better.mastery AFTER you get gurthalak gets more stat weight.

[@anderss_nilsson]

I've heard that you're supposed to reforge mastery > crit if you have Gur'Thalak Voice of the deeps, why's that if it's true?

[@TheGImp1214]

So i should dual wield unholy and dps in frost pres and make sure i have no procs at all to pop my gargoyle Oh and timmy is worthless may as well not even have him out.... GOT IT! Thanks for the guide!

[@Mr4everTHEMAN]

I had 80k burst yesterday on Dw as unholy :D

[@scousepitty]

why you arnt one of the top subbed wow vid makers is beyond me ..

[@Chronicle2150]

lol... Tentacle disco party

[@h8ste25]

dude after watching the blood dk vid i was tanking like a baller until i got to hagara....is it me or does hagara have this uncanny knack for citting on blood dks? im not talking bout standing in her assault, im litterally getting melee crit hit with no ice debuff for 100k.

[@lordofchaosrb]

timmy crits like a baus

[@sarsxz]

@mikepreachwow what rune addon is that?

[@Chiridolfo86]

gracias!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@iamuser123456789]

I disagree, and to me it just would make sense that he would already be in like Heroic Ds gear by now

[@dek10157]

armory :D, nice guide by the way

[@D3ck3rCain]

Micro Machines

[@ondrej911]

how can find the action u mentioned alt scrool down passive

[@Vellaniwow]

Isnt mastery better if u have normal gurth? increases ure overall shadow dmg and thats what gurth is my gurth currently hits like a fking truck even in pvp it literly brings a guy down to 30% by itself

[@toppzy]

Hmm, awsome vids m8. Did just stumble ower them, and what can i say. If every man/girl did play the game, with the same prefferances as u'r selfe, i would have alot more hair on my head. I would just like to addres something wich u didnt, and thats rolling diesies as uh. They work the same way as the garg with the "snap shot" if u can get rly big ones of in the begining, and just roll them with festering, u should see quit margin dps gain aswell. Feel free to message if u'd like to know more.

[@HottHead39]

the addon is magic runes

[@mridontcare9619]

On holy death knight....lol

[@Tehleetking]

Yes.

[@SevenDaysify]

[@JaredCMO]

@mikepreachwow DUDE PLEASE do me a favor make an arcane mage guide your commentary is hilarious , I am aware the class is pretty simple just basically about managing your CD's and maximizing your burn phase. I Just want to hear you say stuff like " BEEFY ARCANE BLAST CRIT " lol

[@simus0505]

how do you go about doing this?

[@TruthIsTheAnswer]

/petattack and /petfollow

[@gildewinter1295]

can you put the macro into the discription next time plz

[@calvingaudette]

why is he saying that you don't need expertise cap and to reforge out of all of your expertise that sounds like a bad idea.

[@notSmashed]

Can anybody let me know, I've just set my second talent to unholy and upon trying this method of playing Unholy, my dps went up to roughly 15k on a test dummy, in about 60% pvp gear and some Vicious Pyrium, is that good/bad?

[@Rubi-Ka]

Great vid mate! Glad to see more Unholy DPS guide, we need more Unholy DKs! lol Check out my vid, I just won "Gurthalak, Voice of the Deeps" in LFR, 44k dps burst on a dummy! Love it!!
