Out of curiosity, you may take great interest in our Wrath of the Lich King Death Knight abilities. But at that moment, the Unholy abilities are second to none for us. They are dark, sinister, and full of hatred that seems to be built up in each one. As a Death Knight, you job is to do huge damage to your enemies with unforgiving methods. While the Blood and Frost Presence Talents are fearsome in their own right, the Unholy ones are far superior.
  With a hard shell, Death Knights are able to place themselves or can keep the enemies from damaging you for a while. When the enemies are trying to cast spells on you, they will just hit the shell and fall to the ground. However, your attack methods will go right through.
  For us, the Army of the Dead is a great ability and one you should always have handy. The benefit is having an Army as well as there are other advantages. What happens is you will be able to rise up Ghouls from the dead to fight in your stead. Unfortunately, you can't take them everywhere, but that would make the game too easy.
  Due to the fact that Death Knights are able to heal themselves in various ways, but you must understand that many of your opponents will be able to do the same. So when you see someone trying to heal themselves, bring out the Blood Plague in full force. This ability counteracts their healing methods and basically evaporates it from play for a short time. In the meantime you are able to bring the house down and teach them a long, hard lesson.
  The Death and Decay ability lets the Death Knight produce a disease on the ground. If any of your enemies are within the radius they will lose health during the period it is released. We recommend this for anyone who enjoys tanking because it gives you the opportunity to have everyone lose points while you are hitting a specific target. Then again, you will receive an extensive amount of aggro for using this ability.
The Death Gate ability allows your Death Knight to travel back to Ebon Hold. Since there are several quests the Death Knight must endure, this ability will come in handy many times over. While we are still testing it out ourselves, we are hoping it can pretty much take you anywhere in the Northrend region once you've visited each location.
The Death Grip ability is an easy way to keep everyone focused on you. Even if a part of your guild has too much aggro and enemies head towards them, you can reel them back in like fish. This is long distance ability and the first time you see it you will love the results. You should keep in mind that there are several other benefits as well, but you will figure it out along the way. In fact, we imagine you will come up with ideas that we haven't even thought about yet.
Getting a Ghoul is very similar to the Army of the Dead summons. However, when you use the Raise Dead ability you will only be able to raise one Ghoul. It is a little depressing after watching several rises on the other ability. The Ghoul has an unbelievable amount of damage he/she throws on your enemies. During this time you are still able to attack a target yourself so it is almost like doubling your damage.
Whatever you do, make sure you keep track of everything that is involved with the Unholy Presence. While many of these are mind boggling abilities, if you don't have the right amount of Runic Powers then things will tend to be discouraging. If anything, we recommend taking the time to study each one of your Death Knight's abilities. Having the proper mixture of spells will give you a leg up on the competition. Don't take our word for it though, go out and try it for yourself. If you need additional help just come back when need be.
