Comparing with Shadowmourne isn't really fair. I simmed Havoc's Call X2 with Oathbinder and DW Unholy came out on top by 5 dps. As in, they're both essentially the same now. So yes DW Unholy is...

Yeah it's just the proc. You can check by creating a character that is ArP capped and then check the EP value of Mjolnir or Grim Toll and you'll see that it's 0.

I've tested this and so have a few other DKs actually. The gargoyle can have his cast time reduced to 0.8 seconds but the GCD restrictions means it will wait 0.2 seconds before beginning to cast the...

Pets don't benefit from blood presence, only unholy. That shouldn't matter much though, since you're frost. Even if the 15% haste is multiplicative, I'm not sure how you are getting more than 3X as...

Actually Gargoyles do have a haste cap: they have a GCD of 1 second. As in, gargoyles cannot cast their Gargoyle Strike more than once per second. So if you ever stack enough haste and haste...

Oh, believe me I know how to use the sim. I also used Consider's gear, and the standard 0/17/54 spec for the sim. I don't check here often so my last version was actually 1.2.1.2, if that makes any...

With the new 1.2.1.5 version of the simulator I've noticed a huge increase in the value of haste. I was getting EP values of <2 before, and now I'm sitting at 2.6. On the Unholy DPS thread there's a...

You do more damage while away from your target if you're subspec'd frost. Higher disease damage and ghoul damage. Also, there's no point in debating which spec is better since it is dependent on your...
