Unholy - Mastery vs Versatility

Recommended Posts

Something's been bugging me recently - why is mastery more valuable to an Unholy DK than versatility?  It seems to me that versatility should be superior because it increases ALL damage (shadow & physical) while mastery only increases shadow damage.  Does 1% of mastery scale differently than 1% of versatility in some way?  I assume I am misunderstanding something here about how versatility works.

Im going to guess that its easier to get 80% mastery than 80% versa is the reason, the scaling is likely different. 

Mastery also buffs your ghoul and army and DA as well so there is a bit more going on there.

First of, lets get this out of thew way: Versa buffs all your damagedone, including pets.

1% versa will net you more damage than 1% mastery. However, getting 1% mastery requires WAYYYYYYY less rating of that stat (lets say 1400 mastery vs 3000 versa per 1%). Those are not accurate numbers, but you should get the idea. 

Therefore mastery severely outperforms versatility in terms of damage, since the majority of your damage is shadow.

      The way to enhance Frost Death Knight leveling and then update it in the very start and up into the greatest levels in brief phrases? Opt for the very best gift on every level you obtain so as to find out and use best. Look at these Frost Death Knight abilities and highlight the ones that you have to have on your desk whilst trimming the enthusiast.
      Level 56 - Cold Heart. Level 57 - Horn of Winter, Runic Attenuation. Level 58 - pick one of 3 because they have exactly the identical part in leveling: Passing's Reach, Asphyxiate, Blinding Sleet. Level 60 - Frozen Pulse, Froscythe. Level 75 - Wraith Walk. Level 90 - Frostwyrm's Fury, Gathering Storm. Level 100 - Breath of Sindragosa. You are welcome to add some corrections!

      Does anyone have issue where a ton of versatility gear is dropping?
      In the effort to increase my item level, so I can do heroics (i know I'm late to the game), all the higher level gear that drops has versatility, do BM hunters need versatility now or is this just bad luck?
