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.
What is Corruption?
Corruption is a new system of power progression which replaces Titanforging; instead of item level bonuses, they will now have a chance to be Corrupted by the Old Gods, represented by the purple-colored stat which adds both a positive effect and stacking negative attribute which incurs penalties at various thresholds. Although the negative effects can reach a point at which they become debilitating, carefully managing the bonuses and penalties allows for a great deal of customization and individual power gain.
Corrupted gear can be freely cleansed by MOTHER in order to remove both effects and revert them back into normal items. Corruption can also be added on non-corrupted items, by purchasing
Preserved Contaminants with MOTHER
. Corruption resistance can also be gained over time, both from new minor essences, and the legendary cloak
, allowing more corrupted effects to be worn. For more information on all potential Corruptions, see our
Corruption Overview Guide
.
What Corruptions should I Buy from MOTHER on a Unholy Death Knight?
Corruptions now can be
purchased from MOTHER
using
. Every few days, a new set of Corruptions will be accessible.
With that in mind, we present a list of the best corruptions to purchase from MOTHER on a Unholy Death Knight.
Best Unholy Death Knight Corruption Bonuses
We have comparative simulations for each of the various Corruption affixes which can roll on gear, courtesy of SimulationCraft and Bloodmallet. While this overview should give you a good general idea of how each compare to one another, your specific character may see slightly different results based on how you are geared and what Corruptions are available to you; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
. When looking at corruption effects it is important not to look at the overall power of a given effect, but at how much power per corruption is gained while staying below your safe threshold. By using Top Gear, you can play with the Max Corruption bar, allowing you to maximize your damage based on your Corruption risk choices.
This is simply an overview and doesn't take into account the negative effects of stacking Corruption. While increasing Corruption will continually increase player power, it comes at the cost of serious side effects, which may be debilitating in some activities or encounters. Reference the Corruption Effect notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of these bonuses and deal with the detriments.
Please also note that when using more than one of the same corruption, even different tiers of the same corruption, the effect/benefit (damage, statistical gains, etc) stack while durations and proc rates remain unchanged. The only exception is
, unique to the Ny'alotha raid weapon
, which will proc independently when dual wielded.
Unholy Death Knights generally run two different builds but stats, gear and corruption don't differ between them. I've simulated the different effects and will display them using dps per point of corruption to show effect gives you the most bang for your buck! The graphs below were updated 2020-02-13.
Unholy generally loves haste on single target, making
one of the best picks you can have!
S-tier
A-tier
is great for pure single target. It increases your dps by a lot. Important to note, it actually scales negatively with added targets. It relies on the debuff it applies to gain full value on single target. With multiple targets, the average value of this debuff will be lower and the hits will therefore be less powerful.
B-tier
These choices are all solid when it comes to dps value for corruption cost.
has been brought down to B-tier with all the nerfs. It scales slightly in AoE, splittings its damage but having the overall dps output increase by 15% per target up to 75% at 6 targets.
All other traits don't bring as much value as the ones above. However, if you got a corrupted item that doesn't take you above 40 corruption, always equip it since it'll be a dps upgrade without a significant downside.
The traits that increase the stat you gain such as
heavily scale with your current stat value. This means that the more Crit you have, the more potent the trait will be. This is important to remember so that you aren't confused when sims tell you another trait is better!
S-tier
Haste is a great trait for Unholy in AoE since it allows for more
s to be applied and burst in AoE. Since our AoE heavily relies on this, increasing our Haste has a lot of value. Mastery is also extremely strong in AoE. The sims below have the mastery increase corruption low in value since the base profile used in these sims don't have a lot of mastery.
still ends up in S-tier since it will have great value in AoE where people run more mastery.
A-tier
Stats procs that scale nicely with our kit as well as crit increase. We gain a large amount of strength with the
Azerite trait, increasing the value of secondaires.
simply does a lot of AoE throughput
B-tier
is down here since it can be useful when you have the allies for it!

Best Unholy Death Knight Ny'alotha Weapons
Besides random corruption effects, weapons from the new Ny'alotha raid also have exclusive effects on them, which can be quite powerful. Similar to random corruption effects, if you obtain a weapon with a subpar effect, you can always cleanse it. As a Unholy Death Knight, you can obtain weapons with the following effects:
always comes with Tier 3
, which can be strong in AoE but doesn't have the best damage to corruption value on single target. Because of the higher than average item level, the weapon may be prioritized, but most often cleansed for raiding purposes.
always comes with
, a unique effect which is pretty bad for DPS, with a very low damage to corruption value for single target, an order of magnitude lower than our good pieces!
Dealing with Negative Effects of Corruption
In addition to the bonuses, corrupted items also increase the Corrupted stat by varying amounts based on the tier of the effect. Corruption stat incurs penalties that the player must deal with, and while these effects start out rather benign, they quickly ramp up in both potency and impact, to the point where it can be very hard to deal with during a Dungeon or Raid encounter, and even become outright debilitating at the highest levels.
There are five effects unlocked at different total corruption levels:
- Unlocked with 1 Corruption
- Unlocked with 20 Corruption
- Unlocked with 40 Corruption
- Unlocked with 60 Corruption
- Unlocked with 80 Corruption
Learn more about Corruption in our in-depth guide!
At Rank 6, the legendary Cloak
gains an on-use effect which will remove and immune all currently active negative corruption effects.
- Death Knights will make good use of
/
to deal with this ability. We will still suffer heavily from it since our mobility is low in general.
- Death Knights can again use
/
to quickly exit the zone. Furthemore,
can be utilised to negate the damage. Most importantly, position matters heavily here. Do not stand in such a way that an eye will restrict your access to the boss. Think smart and stand in such a way that you always can move to a new spot when it triggers!
- Since the Thing from Beyond only lasts for 8 seconds,
can be of great use to control the monster for a large portion of its duration.
- If you do get hit, make sure to have
/
available to quickly get out!
How Much Corruption Should a Unholy Death Knight Take?
I recommend players to stay under 40 corruption at all times. Both
and
don't require you to switch off the boss to deal with the mechanic. Furthermore, especially in an M+ setting, you don't want to use
on anything that isn't part of the dungeon.

I was just wondering if your ghoul pet or Army of the Dead procks infinite stars?
