About the Author
This guide is written by Khazak, a Death Knight player since 5.4. Besides writing guides, I am active in
Acherus, the Death Knight class Discord
, and a maintainer on SimulationCraft, contributing code implementations and APLs for Frost Death Knights. I raid in Agency on Zul'jin-US and sometimes stream raids on
Twitch
. I am always happy to take questions or comments about the guide through Discord.
Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Covenant Abilities
Kyrian Death Knight Class Ability:
The Kyrian Class Ability for all Death Knights is
: a hasted single target DoT with a possibility of cleave attached to it. Hasted here means that the tick rate is increased by haste, thus making the ability scale with haste. When
is active on an enemy, your direct damaging abilities that spend runes have a 100% chance to spread the DoT. The DoT will apply at its remaining duration and only spreads to targets that do not already have the DoT.
Kyrian Death Knight Signature Ability:
provides a potion called
. This provides a solid heal as well as a cleanse of disease, poison, curses, and bleeds. It's a great defensive ability that useful for survivability in both raid and Mythic+. When you can use it to cleanse a debuff it gains a significant amount of value. It unfortunately doesn't do anything for the Unholy Death Knight's weakness (mobility), but is still nice.
Kyrian Conduit for
Ability
- Increases the duration of
by 3 seconds and significantly buffs the damage. Generally an okay potency to run in AoE but not competitive compared to other options.
Unholy Death Knight Conduit Guide
Kyrian Exclusive Legendary for Unholy Death Knight
NEW Kyrian Legendary
: When
is applied to an enemy, instantly gain a Rune and your damage is increased by 2%, stacking up to 20% for 15 sec.
This legendary does fine in AoE scenarios where we can quickly stack up the strength buff. For Single Target, a 4% buff for 15 seconds every minute simply isn't very good, overall 1% damage throughput essentially.
Other Legendary Interactions for Kyrian Unholy Death Knights
There are no Legendary interactions for the Kyrian covenant.
Unholy Death Knight Legendary Guide
Best Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Max Renown 80 Soulbind
Mikanikos is generally the best soulbind to pick at renown 80. You get solid single target with great AoE. Especially
is a really big boost in AoE!
is a viable alternative for
in Mythic+.
Unholy Death Knight Conduit Guide
Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Soulbinds
Three abilities in the tree that can provide dps increase.
- A great gain in DPS that carries the soulbind.
- Permanent 40 mastery buff as long as you run around close with your other raid/ party buddies.
- A passive proc that requires you to face a spawned Doubt manifest. Gives a really nice strength proc.
Pelagos comes fully packed with three good throughput spells as well as triple potency. However, this is still not enough to make Pelagos the default pick, even if he is viable in any content.
is a viable alternative for
in Mythic+.
Kleia presents 3 traits that provide DPS throughput increases:
- A solid DPS increase in pretty much all scenarios for mythic + or raiding. You will either have lots of allies around you (raids), or fight lots of targets (mythic +), making this ability really useful in both scenarios. It unfortunately doesn't lie on a double Potency Conduit path, making it a bit less powerful.
- A nice 3% increased crit damage in the first 10 seconds of a boss fight. Also works extremely well for any adds that spawn, giving you value whenever you engage them.
- Works with
which triggers off your critical strikes. Essentially provides a large chunk of crit throughout the fight.
Kleia revolves around critical strikes, having each of her abilities either depend or buff them. Overall a solid soulbind that unfortunately falls short in terms of damage throughput.
Mikanikos provides two Traits that are relevant for our DPS.
- This Trait does provide a DPS boost, but not by a lot. It doesn't proc very often (once every 2 minutes-ish) and doesn't do that much damage. It's still better than nothing which is nice.
- A great Trait if you are fighting lots of adds or packs in mythic +. However, on single target boss encounters it's really not very powerful. I think it does better than our Potency Conduits in mythic + AoE, but much worse on boss fights and raids.
- 2.5% single target damage increase. This "extra" trait brings a substantial amount of throughput.
- Provides a decent nuke whenever you use your
as well as lowering the cooldown of
depending on number of targets hit. The damage doesn't scale in AoE but the CDR effectively does make it more powerful as you add targets.
Mikanikos is generally great for AoE through the
ability. For Mythic+, you can pick up
and get a lot more extra burst at the start of any trash pack. Mikanikos does really well for single target as well, making it the best soulbind overall for Unholy.
is a viable alternative for
in Mythic+.
Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Covenant Rotation Changes
As usual, this page only highlights the specific use case of the Class and Signature Abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to check the other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:
Unholy Death Knight Rotation Guide
You want to use our
on cooldown essentially. For AoE, we do want to be mindful of how we use it. It's ideal to pop it down before entering our
window since we'll soon be spamming
. This brings the most amount of spreads since we'll be using low-cost rune spenders a ton.
Use the
in a similar manner to how you'd use a health pot. Use it when your raid calls for its usage, or when you can smartly cleanse a debuff.
Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Talent Builds
There are no significant interactions with Kyrian and our talents.
does synergize when you've picked up
but the synergy is quite weak. It also won't be enough to make this talent viable.
Unholy Death Knight Talents
Kyrian Unholy Death Knight Gearing Differences
Kyrian does increase the value of haste ever so slightly since
scales with haste. This is a tiny increase though and it won't significantly impact our gearing choices.
Double Legendaries for Kyrian Unholy Death Knight
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Kyrian Unholy Death Knight even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.
