Well it was bound to happen. I love PvP, but I was getting tired of entering BGs on my DK with either his Tank or DPS spec and either wearing my tank or PvP gear.
With my tank gear, I was having fun. It would take more than 3 hordies to kill me but I could not burn them down fast enough to make a difference or if I could burn them down (ie: have no heals) it would take a bit of time.
With my PvP gear, I had no survivability to even hit things since my DPS spec was built around killing not surviving.
Now since I turned 80 I have been collecting PvP gear since I do well...PvP and right about now I'm in full Furious with maybe 1 or 2 Relentless pieces. I went ahead and
So I researched, since it's one of the good things I can do. Guess what I found?
Unholy tree tops the PvP meter for DKs.
Now, now. I did already know this, but Unholy just doesn't sound all that appealing to me. I mean of course you get a ghoul pet and a gargoyle to some but Blood has the Dancing Rune Weapon, which is awesome! (Needs buffed though, I think) and Frost has the nice frosty AE plus the crazy, insane Hungering Cold that freezes your enemies in place. (I loved popping that in a large group of Hordies.)
But it all comes down to burst and survival. So I researched the top arena DKs. Found a nice Unholy spec to replace my DPS spec and BOOM!! Instant top of the chart Killing Blows in all my BGs. Topping the Damage Done chart, and rarely dying!! I found that I have this habit of treating my BG or Arena fights as a tank fight and just tanking the opposing team and for some reason it works for me. The fights are all real fast paced and I love it. Also turns out that if I PvP right before raid, everything in raid seems slower and more easily adapted to than before. Before it was ''OMG!!! Many Whelps!! Handle it!!'' Now it's ''50 dkp minus to al the DPS!! You're moving to slow! I have the adds already!! Kill Them!!''
Anyways back to the issue at hand, I have to say I was impressed. I had put it off so long but now I really love the Unholy tree and the spec I use for PvP and Arenas. Every hordie class seems to fall, groveling and begging for mercy, for which I give none!! Well maybe not every class but Mages and Trees are definitely not on my ''Cannot Kill, Ever'' List. I have their number now. But a few still have mine.
So now I beg of the DKs out there to bless me with their Unholy Forgiveness for I knew not what I did not understand. And if you were like me, give Unholy a chance, and you will never regret it.
Now to find some more Hordies!! For Wrynn! For the Alliance!! For Blood and Honor!!
Go out and 'Find your Friend'!!

Incoming!!
It seems that's what I keep thinking to myself lately. Ever since my last post things have been zooming at my head and I was ducking and weaving, trying to dodge, it would seem those little wooden dummies used in martial arts. Boy, are my shins bruised.
Between work and life issues, everything was just plain busy for a bit. Summer has come and with new possibilities and free time. Though I am still strapped for cash. Being an Adult, sucks!! This is the part of life my mom never told me about and I am pretty sure it was her way of getting back at me for everything I did when I was growing up. Well, she got me good, yes, she did.
In the coming months I hope to finish off my tanking articles and start some fresh stuff. Bear with as I update the site and get my blogs rolling again. I also have some great ideas coming up.
You see....**pst! I have been playing with Fraps on WoW**. Some interesting videos might pop up. Be on the look out.
And as I always like to do, Make Friends of those NPCs!!! Peace out!!
