    Oh yeah, I always level as blood, you can LIVE through shit AND do a ton of damage while doing it. But for end-game dps I prefer unholy, mostly for the reasons I just listed and I'm too lazy to list em again.

    Why split the credit with your pet when you can take it all for yourself?
    It's not splitting the credit when it is your minion.

    Because having a badass ghoul (or abberation when it's transformed) to fight by your side is always fun.

    Well, I don't find myself having too much downtime (I do atm, but that's cuz my gear is SHIT)

    As for some of the personal statements that I found online...

    "during KS3 I attempted to solve GCSE questions for a challenge"

    How is a non-native speaker even supposed to know what these mean, much less use them so freely in their personal statements? I hate how important the PS is. I stand no chance against these people. Native English speakers have a humongous advantage.

    It is. Everyone knows you wouldn't do as well if it wasn't for that minion.

    I always found myself with a ton of downtime while playing frost, about 50% of the time i'm doing nothing but auto attacking. While playing unholy though only about 20% of the time i'm stuck with nothing to do

    Atm I'm doing nothing about 30% of the time. At 85 when I had decent gear it was about 10%.

    ...wait, that's the wrong games.

    But really, channeling runic power? wow, exciting. are you a wand or what?
    vicious weapon strikes? come on, even warriors can do that.

    Spreading infection? Hehehe....

    Controll minions? Sure, why do all the "vicious weapon strikes" yourself when others can do them.
    Because getting all the credit beats getting some of it.

    The thing I hate most about frost is the RNG, it was terrible to wait for runes to get back up so you could use KB procs on Obliterate when you had runic power to spend.

    I did good DPS with frost but a lot of it was downtime, while with unholy i do around the same (if not MORE) with less downtime. Yeah, you can probably see why I like unholy more than frost. Also, i killed lich king while being unholy, so I kind of have some nostalgia with the spec.

    I like the RNG. Also, knowing when to save a KB for Obliterate instead of using it for FS right away is what seperates a good from a mediocre frost DK.

    Nostalgia.. I hate that thing. Ruins good discussions with it's rose-tinted glasses.

    And I have to say that I do like both, unholy and frost quite a lot.
    I would like blood the most, if it wouldn't have been lol-op eversince. it's pretty boring to play, sadly.
    >Not liking being OP

    Yeah..

    It is true, I make a really mediocre frost DK.

    Hmm. I actually quite like Anduin Wrynn.

    Let's kill Chynn and replace him with Anduin.

    Being OP is so horribly boring. I would know, I played a Paladin during tbc.

    I agree with killing Varian. He's almost as bad as Garrosh.

    Yeah..
    I dont let it get in the way of my discussions though. I did good back then as well (around like . . . 14k dps on lich king back then. That was good right? around 14k?), and I've always liked the spec more anyways. I find controlling an undead minion and spreading countless diseases upon unweary scum to be a bit more fun than hitting them with ice.

    Have you read the shattering? I earned a lot of respect for Anduin when I read that book. I don't dislike the character . I honestly think he would be a better king than his father. Especially since he's friends with Bane. He could organize peace treaties and stuff between the two factions!
