Unholy + Dual Wield WHEN?

Frost gets the option for 2h or dual wield. but UNHOLY still does not?
I get blood they are tank.
But still should not ALL Deathknights get the choice of DW or 2H? or at least
Blood 2h and Sword Shield?
DPS 2h and DW?
Throw in some day’um diversity.

Would be nice. I bought Frost DW weapons because UH was more on par with us. Now they’re ahead (in PVP), so I’m stuck waiting 2 more weeks to get an UH weapon of similar caliber.

I think the fantasy of the DK is a lumbering 2 handed beast that constantly rots targets down and cant be ignored.

I dont think DW or sword and shield fits at all…i wish they would just allow 2 handed weapons only.

With that however, I would vote for more abilities based on parry for defensives…not necessarily die by the sword copies but defense or offense based on parry. and a way to increase parry chance.

this would keep DK unique and in its fantasy niche while giving that diversity option.

No that’s actually trolling. Unholy DK concept has never been intended to dual wield, hell even those idiots in classic parroting what wowhead suggests are trolling dual wielding just to do less DMG than 2h as well as play a cringe spec with cringe rotation.

Unholy DK should always be 2h
Blood DK should always be 2h
Frost Dk should always be Dual Wield and remove breath of sindragosa ffs is cringe and toxic to play around that stupid coodown.

Just to think how dumb and stupid dual wield unholy looks visually and mechanically gives me cringe.

So no Blizzard don’t listen to these type of players who fall in the casual category and have not played DK for the past 14 years since DKs inception.

The only reason why DW unholy is working in wrath is because its a “buff your pets” spec and ignores most of the mechanics of the spec.

It doesnt pick up scourge strike, it doesnt pick up reaping, BcB does poor damage and it cant even make use of almost any 2/4 pc outside of the a few and its only 1/2 of the entire tier set.

DW unholy isnt intended, DW Frost is and was and is still built around it.

But go ahead and just give people the ability to use DW unholy. Its not going to be good just like when 2h was “brought back” to frost it wasnt even worth looking at until they added in the other passives for it.

wrong. played since day one, and unholy makes more sense than frost. quicker weapons used to mean quicker ticks on diseases and such… it’s one of the reasons unholy never had a giant, hardhitting attack spell outside of army- it was just constant pressure like a plated melee version of an afl warlock.

diseases have never scaled with haste or weapon speed for dks.

Scourge Strike says hello… So you are lying,

Again dual wield is stupid, every DK in the lore who is Unholy themed use 2H there’s no cringe doble weapon, so keep trying casual… Also wrong your hardest hitting move as Unholy DK is not army, in fact is gargoyle followed by scourge Strike and melee depends the encounter of course. But he’ll you don’t see Army what a troll casual you are seriously stop misleading the community cause that’s toxic.

PS also lying about ticks on diseases they don’t benefit from haste. So quicker weapons for quicker ticks lol cringe to say that btw… but completely false.

You just proved you haven’t played DK since day one causal. You’re a lier

i’m not arguing with you again; i remember the last time- it never seemed to end because you wouldn’t just shut up.

Except for Mograine, who is canonically unholy and flips back and forth between two hand and duel wield depending on expansion.

He does that because he is controlled by the elites of blizzard like a puppet.

If he could choose he would never go DW

Sudden Doom was a Blood talent pre 4.0. In Cata when it was then put into Unholy, it had an unintended function. It was changed from procing off of abilities to procing off of auto attacks and the off-hand was procing it which was not intended.

Pre 3.4 Unholy had Blood Caked Blade, which scaled off of weapon damage and diseases present.

DW unholy makes 0 sense from a design standpoint with how the spec functioned no matter how many times people say “this thing makes more sense to me so it should be that”.

The developers designed the specs and they hit their mark whether some people on the forums think it should be something else.

This is why I say people dont actually like the death knight or else you guys wouldnt want to change it all to suit your world view of it.

No clue what you two argued about before, but mentioning a patch that doesn’t really exist (Sudden Doom procs got normalized in 4.0, not pre-patch) and then telling someone to shut up who said nothing more than factually correct information is a bad look.

You shot your credibility pretty good there.

no idea what you are talking about in regards to arguing seeing as i rarely post on these forums anymore. however this statement of yours is easily checked on both wotlk classic and live game disease tick rate is set at 3 second intervals regardless of your haste or weapon speed as a dk. if this changed at some point can you post a link to when that happened?

edit: ive checked my entire available post history and the only interaction i can see we have ever had was you liking a post i made involving dual wield blood.

And depending on spec. Morgraine would be more frost oriented when dual wielding for obvious reasons.

Seriously stop the methamphetamine consumption you clearly can’t give valid rationales. At this point casual stop commenting and stop embarrassing yourself it’s pathetic

Never! If you want to duel wield and be cool, stop being unholy disease spreading dk. Become ice ice baby.
