Death Knight Leveling Specs

[Falaras]

Just wondering what specs everyone is going to level their DK as? I haven't done any research or even looked at the trees yet. <.<

[Noobta]

I was blood on beta, but I heard all 3 of them are pretty good for leveling.

[EternityEnd]

Unholy. From what I've heard, it'll be the best for levelling, what with the Ghoul, AoE capability and healing it has.

[Rivero]

I'd definately go Unholy as well. That ghoul just rapes everything in the beginning.

Try this spec out:

Yeah I think unholy looks good.

[fantasticdan]

Blood was the best by far in early beta, highest dps output and insane self-healing. Now thou I'd definitely go with unholy.

[Correction]

Blood got hit with some of the biggest nerfs too.

hybrid seems like it would work well imo.

Even nerfed, Blood strikes me more as a direct-DPS tree, while Unholy is more an aoe grind, so I guess it depends on how you prefer your leveling spree.

[Arcana]

Currently leveling as an Unholy DK, AoE capability & ghoul = win. the ghoul absolutly provides the best fun for leveling, seeing it fly around the screen pulling enemies left and right.

i tried blood, it really seemed like it should have done more damage, but I didn't really think I had a good enough runic dump, might be better later but for now i find that unholy is just better off with both single/multi target grinding (imo anyway)

So i guess we cant tank anything until 60 where we get that aoe thing?

Went unholy, love my ghoul. Send him to leap a mob, pulls it back to me. Has a really fucking long range on it too. Basically if you can see a mob you can tell the pet to go after it. Hes got 4053 hp too. (3/3 stat spec, lvl 59 dk myself).

I'm a nab and don't even own the expansion, but frost DK was a good tank in a lowbie 5 man I did..

[izembo]

can someone explain what exactly death rune mastery does?

[Samu]

can someone explain what exactly death rune mastery does?

Death runes count as any rune you have, blood, unholy, or frost. If a ability requires a rune and your rune for that ability is not up, it will use the death rune instead.

You got the sword? Im kind of wishing I got the sword instead. Itll pretty much get replaced soon though.

[Guitarman]

Yeah wanted to be my own thing. Usually see alot of pallies using the greataxes so went GS. Plus, liked the look better

[Royal]

This is crazy. 5 Deathknights are rolling around hellfire pennisula and killing people. I managed to kill one before i died and when i ressed as a ghoul I killed all 4 of them. This seems kinda rediculous.

[Royal]

Double post eh. If any of you are spec blood, what do your scourge strikes crit for at 58-60? On unholy ive gotten 1840 and im wondering how much higher it is on blood.
