Unholy dk pvp rotation and priorities

Classes Death Knight
1

Hey all, new to dk and want to give it a spin in arena! I’ve seen a few pvp guides out there for unholy dk, but I think they were made before the dk rework so figured i’d reach out here as well. I’m finding it a bit confusing in how to best manage your runic power/runes, the priority in which abilities should be used, and really just how to maximize your damage. Also, seems like a somewhat cooldown-heavy class, at least in comparison to my warrior.

Any and all information would be very appreciated! Best!

party waffles has a pretty simple guide with a couple different builds on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHO_KZQfvtE

Depending on the build you choose will sort of determine your priorities.

If no wounds add them. If you have wounds, burst them. Death Coil off CD.
Keep virulent plague up.
Use your CD’s when they come available.

That is an extremely basic run down, but watch the video.
