Yeah, can see the boomkins tearing up rated BGs. Guess I should have specified or implied somewhat I was referring to arena. May be inclined to try pve with them, but feral looks better except for being prone to AoE damage more often.
I've only toyed with unholy spec right after the release of WotLK, so I'm way behind the curve there. I'm sure there will be quite a few here that will be experimenting with it before I get the DK team to 85.
