Its so sad that Maldraxxus is the weakest dk covenant for PVE.
u doin such a guide for frost dk also? i would really appreciate if u compare both, especially for the raid!
love the content and already so hyped for SL 🙂
Night fae dks, assemble
Awesome vid mate, helped a lot. Ty
good video you give very useful informations
Started playing Death Knight a few weeks/months ago when I got back into World of Warcraft. Your guides and videos are great, thanks!
I currently play Frost but I'm also interested in the Unholy specialization. Would like to focus mainly on single-target DPS for raids. I'll most likely pick the Venthyr as my go-to covenant since they seem to have decent synergy with Unholy and Frost which enables switching between those two without the need of switching the covenant as well (also the vampire setting fits pretty good).
Does Death's Certainty not work with epidemic? This seems kinda bad -_-
This video is unholyingly good!
what are your thoughts on frost vs unholy right now. Purely from a PVE perspective.
DK has always been a slow dps, except for frost 1hands i think, UH is slow but hit like a truck.
Amazing video dude, lots of information I was looking for. Thank you and keep with vid like this one.
Love your guides man. Thanks for the Video!
It's a shame I can't like this video twice. Thank you so much for the content, answered all my questions, and there were a lot of them.
Amazing video! made me even more excited for shadowlands
There is like no way they will not target cap swarming mist right? Why necro tragetcapped and venthyr is not
great video as usual. thanks for your work
Very nice video, thanks a lot, I’m subbing.
Great!
Sorry I didn't watch your video. To much anger at Activision owning Blizzard causing it to go down hill.
Developers leaving, low paid disgruntled support staff. Why I left is it suddenly became oh so hard to give us flying. So No More WoW for me after ten years of WoW. Activision is to Money Hungry – PAY YOUR WORKERS MORE, Get better Developers back.
After watching this I can see that you really have put alot of work into this and I (hopefully alot of others too) really appreciate all of it. Thank you very much
Amazing job. So nice to finally see this kind of depth guides for DK
Hope you do something like this for Frost too 😀
Let's go boy!
Awesome video, do you have Weak aura??
Having downtime also means we can use utility spells whitout loosing too much damage.
what is ur #1 Unholy DK Race?
Any plans for a blood dk video? 😀 fingers crossed!
Amazing vid bro, keep up the good work! Hope to see more of these in the future !
Absolutely brilliant, loved the video Bicepspump. I hope that you will continue this series as we head into the Shadowlands. Perhaps full guides on certain builds etc, would be very appreciated by the community. As a long time DK-main and cutting edge raider I have always valued your posts and guides very highly, keep the amazing work up!
I want to pick necrolord because I like to run arenas and love the theme, but I´m afraid mythic+ will only take dk´s with best pve covenant :/
thanks for the good guide ( hello from the Russian-speaking community )
Спасибо за работу Даерэн, Bicepspump my regards <3
Hay Bicepspump i have a question i play mainly M+ but also raid cutting edge and play Arena on 2.2-2.4 raiting and im looking for the best spec and build for me can you help me what would you choose (spec,build covenant…)
You are probably one of the most underrated popular dk player on YouTube, how can you not sub!?
Do you know if there's any interaction between night fae's signature ability soulshape and death's advance?
Death's advance "…you cannot be slowed below 100% of normal speed…"
Soulshape "Turn into a Vulpin, teleporting 15 yds forward and increasing your movement speed by 50%."
What if I use death's advance and then I soulshape. Would an enemy player be able to bring me lower than 150% movement speed?
Hi,on discord i’ve read that kyrian is the best for ST, is it the right choice?
Great vid. As a new DK main going into SL, I learned a lot. Thanks a lot for making this!
Just joined and loving the content…I'm new to unholy but is there a way you can a in that video on unholy DK rotations…it's a bit confusing to me ..👍
You mentioned your are a raid leader would you ever make a raid leading guide?
No words on talents? Would gargoyle be viable if we took the deadliest coil legendary and harbinger of doom talent? Heck maybe even throw the embrace death conduit in there.
Which abilities do I want to macro claw into? Just festering strike and scourge strike? Or also outbreak and unholy blight?
So once again Unholy will be fine while Frost cries in a corner. Rofl.
Iam planing on PHD with Pheromones, (Grip of the Dead Talent), and being Nekrolords ofc 😀
So…about Covenants, Im a bit unsure. On the one side its Venthyr for Unholy (and blood), BUT I really want to play 2hand Frost as well, so I would go Night Fae for Obliterate cleave. But I fear this specc will never be as good as 1h frost, or Breath builds in general (venthyr). I hate those decisions 😛
Thank you for the video, I learned a lot of interesting things for myself)continue in the same spirit)Hello from Russia)
Wouldn't Dauntless Duelist be a better pick for ST? I guess in progression Mythic raiding, a bigger and better AMZ is good
Will i see a significant dps decrease if i go necrolord? To me the fantasy and aesthetics are cool and fit the spec
Great Vid, thank you! (Pretty sure its meant to be pronounces Fear-o-mones)
Was hoping for some great news for Neccrolord. But nope, Ill get shit on then 😀
@Bicepspump what dou think will be stronger frost or uh?
