Ahhah, I�m sorry, I was thinking of another build when I said no heart strike�
I have a good size spread sheet with me, or somewhere the has all my Talent builds and why. And then Castsequences to go with them.
I just was typing it off the top of my head thinking of the wrong build.
With the second build, yes, you would use Heart Strike subbed over Blood Strike.
Also, yes, I don�t use Death Strike because the loss in DPS. While I do think every little bit of healing helps, I just didn�t like to use it that much. However, with the second setup, you are going to use Obliterate more often than not because of both Death Rune Mastery and Annihilation. Then throw in the 20% Bonus to Obliterate Glyph, you are going to be hitting hard and making things drop quickly. Taking Death Strike over Obliterate would be more of a Preference rather then a Standard. While I in no way define a Standard, I do like to think I added my little notch to this class combo.
People like to Spout off that Unholy is the DPS tree and that the pets add so much more. But have you ever played a Shadow Knight in EQ? That�s what I think of Unholy. It�s a small part that helps, but also another thing you have to worry about. I already have enough things to worry about, so why add another.
Plus, my DPS has always been top notch and I�ve not had a problem of KILLING ANYTHING. The added damage you get from going into Frost is nothing to joke about.
My PVP DPS is so nasty that it does and WILL take the whole BG to kill me. PVE is crazy damage because of Pestilence and then dropping a 3.5K*5 Howling Blast across the board to all mobs is a �Jizz in my pants� moment.
*Also, not a bash to anyone that uses Ghouls, or is deep Unholy, I love the tree, but IMO the best bang for the buck is Blood/Frost.*
