Welcome to our Unholy Death Knight DPS guide for World of Warcraft 4.3. Here, you will learn everything you need to know about playing an Unholy Death Knight in a raid environment, though most of the content also applies to normal and heroic dungeons.

The Unholy specialisation currently performs similarly to Frost, in both single target and AoE fights.

Compared to other classes' specialisations, Unholy Death Knights perform relatively well, although there are several specialisations that over-take them in DPS.

Currently, using two-handed weapons is the only viable Unholy playstyle.

To make it easy to bookmark the specific sections you are interested in, we have split the guide into 7 pages:

• Talents, Builds, and Glyphs: learn what the best talent trees are and how to customise them;

• Gearing Up and Best in Slot: find the best gear you can wear.
