Blood DK’s were so good, you could do raids as all Blood DK’s.

Smolderon 14:00 when talking about Cata content ? Smooth, hopefully no one noticed! ^^

During cata, the biggest difference between a good blood dk and a bad one, was how well they could stack their blood shields. Being my guild main tank I could time it so my shield ate almost any “death blow” without using cool downs. It did have its down sides, if you had bad blood should rotations, or something happened, you could get spiked, often I would reserve cool downs for that. Cata was my last expansion, I quit 2 weeks into mop due to RL. Always keep an eye on the game. I’m glad it’s still rolling after all these years.

Great video, can’t wait to play my Blood DK in prepatch.

Was a blood DK in OG Cata, ready to do it all again

It was funny seeing Smolderon fight outta nowhere in the video 😂

14:00 Hey that Firelands looks a bit different.

i'm surprised he didn't talk more about dark simulacrum for pvp - I was really interested in seeing his thoughts on it, other than that good video! Thought the first two tiers look solid but sorta let down by the dragon soul tier personally - can't win em all I guess lol

Don't forget to add that when you use lichborne, you can death coil yourself for additional healing. I used that a great deal during the original cata as yet another way to keep myself up if the healers were having any kind of issues.

Orc Unholy DK is hitting like a truck. Was even out damaging people with heirlooms in questing greens and RDF blues. The pet is always top 3 on charts.

Thx for the Video

No mention of necrotic strike in the pvp section, it's really good. can keep doing effective pressure even when people pop defensives. Dispersion? just stack up necrotics

Blood DK used to be so fun in BGs during Cata due to Vengeance + Death Strike.

So...bias i guess as i mained that after maining warlock. Once it was released I rolled my DK and never swapped out. It was a worgen and i raided and the whole nine yards with it. Was an unholy / blood and to me. It had everything i wanted that my squishy warlock didnt. Plus i love dots and it had a few built in, tanky, had ghouls which was my main attraction to my warlock was the pet/dot damage. Even after returning to wow a week ago, i noticed we could make a death knight fresh out the gate instead of needing a max character...so yeah im back to maining DK again in dragon flight 😂

Hello and thank you for this video! I'm playing an Unholy DK and I'm full pre bis but I can't figure out which stat to prioritize... Currently without any buff except my unholy presence I am at 35% haste / 26 expertise / 8 mastery (basic) / 8.20% hit / 25% crit. But I noticed that when I lower my haste a little from 35% to 25% and put it in mastery I do more damage. So if anyone knows the correct caps to reach for an unholy full PVE dk thanks in advance =)

I am REALLY hoping they do something to make 2H Frost on par with its dual wield partner. No reason for it to not be at least equal with its own spec. Just different play styles.

Finally the video I’ve beeeeen dying for

Waiting for the Rogue one. :)
