Next patch would be better, with diseases being able to be applied through PS we can save outbreak and forgo the use of UB so we can still spec RB for peroids where we need to AoE, or PL if we know there's a point down the line where we will definitely be forced off boss and have diseases drop, so we can still continue the optimal "traditional" Unholy rotations.
I don't like Unholy Blight itself, don't think I ever will, but it's an interesting playstyle at the very least, and very hard to mess up once you've got your DoTs on the target as it just revolves around FeS spam while dumping U runes with SS/SR.
+points for being an Eng with Festerblight as well, I'm going to assuming being an eng is the best profession for Unholy if it's a true DPS increase on single target, probably tailoring too.
