Unholy Death Knight in WoD Beta
This may come as a shock, but I have a few Death Knights on my roster. Actually, I play a few on my server. I have two Frost (2H and DW) and a Blood DK for farming and all-around indestructibility. I think having to deal with a pet has kept me from playing an Unholy Death Knight. That may be the reason my Hunter hasn’t moved past level 85. Spreading my focus between a man and his pet doesn’t feel like fun, especially since my “focus” is an abstract construct at best. I’m the same guy who went from playing an army of plate-wearing killers in PVE to a PVP abuse-sponge wrapped in leather.
Unholy DK’s seem to be a favorite in PVP, and plenty of PVE end-gamers rave about them. Then Preach comes along and gives some feedback on his Unholy DK experience in the Warlords of Draenor beta. I may be thawing a Frost DK and letting him get crazy.
WoD Beta – Blood DK is a Beast
Preach over at Preach Gaming is one of those guys why knows what he’s talking about. I’m sure I’ve shined him on before. He’s played every class, and plays them well. He’s smart, unbiased, and is a gent who has opinions that I respect.
In the Warlords of Draenor Beta, he claims the Blood Death Knights are broken. Blizzard says they’re working as intended. I say we’ll see once Blood goes live. But if it does, I could see Blood becoming one very popular tanking spec.
