Question. Is it better to use SR on cool down even if you don't have enough wounds for the haste buff or just wait till you have enough extra wounds stacked?
I realize that, i read your guide
However im gonna give it a test anyhow, as I wasn't expecting 900k and would like some 1m+ ones.
Now is as good a time as any to play around with this stuff...

Im around 20% crit 84% mastery 17% haste which seems ok if a bit resource starved. Seems ill need to use dc a bit more intelligently, post patch.
Looks like Unholy returns to his spotlight
Better than it was, sure.
Spotlight?? Eh...
Yes back in the spotlight, looking at logs Unholy is above or equal to Frost on almost every fight out right now. Just imagine once we get tier and Draught, which the combo of those is an additional ~25% dps.
In general that shouldn't ever really happen as you always know when SR is coming off CD, so ideally no have 3+ wounds up and plan accordingly
I know you're a huge proponent of Unholy and I'm glad to see the spec doing well again after being hindered in early EN. I started Legion as Unholy too! As far as logs go, are we looking at EN farm logs? I will wait until NH to see what both specs are capable of with the appropriate tier/trinkets/relics/etc...and go from there, they both look promising, as well as both having their strengths and weaknesses. I'm quite looking forward to it
I feel that my aoe got nerfed so bad with the bracers nerf. I was pulling 1mil in packs of 3-4 mobs now i barely hit 600k t_t

has anyone looked into the BLOOD legendary
Lana'thel's Lament
but for Unholy with a Defile/CS build (possibly partnered with Unholy legendary helm) for AoE
Sims have unholy using DC every 3.15s, so 9.5 DCs per 30s period. That's 18s removed from the 30s DnD cooldown with the legendary helm, resulting in a 12s DnD cooldown and thus 83.33% uptime. Multiply by 5% and Lanathel's Lament is worth 4.17% total damage, which is decent for a legendary taken in a vacuum, but you also have the helm taking up a legendary spot. You'd deal great AE with every ScS/CS cleaving. Question is whether Defile uptime makes it a winner on single-targets.
If you have those two legendaries, try it out and see how you do.

How is Draught for Frost? I know Maxweii swears by it on unholy and eye seems to have dropped in value with the stat changes.
