Unholy DK AoE Rotation in 4.0.1

A little video I made to help some friends see the unholy DK rotation from an outside perspective, with nice little commentary (in the annotations) and all that.

Basically its the same, you want to keep your diseases up and spread around. You just have to rely on a combination of festering strike and pestilence to do this now instead of just pestilence. You should also probably blood boil instead of blood strike like I'm doing here, but nobody's perfect. :3

dps^2 is the aceleration of the dps also do i see you using frost presence as an unholy dk?

[tmw1488]

@liamrode1 Haha yeah at the beginning of 4.0.1 that was the suggested presence for AoE. That changed pretty quickly of course. This video is very outdated.

Correct me if i'm wrong but it seems that unholy DK's no longer use blood strike? Cause here it wasn't used and in a single target rotation it looks like its been replaced by Festering strike.

[tmw1488]

@artem101 That's correct. Your blood runes are used by Festering Strike for single target and Blood Boil and Pestilence for multiple targets.

how mutch dps per second ?

[tmw1488]

@davidmonell123 About 8k. Admittedly I made some mistakes here so you could definitely do more once you get the rotation down.

@davidmonell123 DPS = Damage Per Second so you dont have to say "DPS per Second :P"

@erickmarshall1 The commentary is via annotations. Suppose I should have mentioned that.
