Blood Death Knight Tank Simulations — The War Within Pre-Patch
On this page, you will find a number of useful simulation results for your Blood Death Knights in World of Warcraft — The War Within Pre-Patch.
Disclaimer: Simulations for Support Roles
With the development of tools such as Raidbots, it is easier than ever to run simulations for your character, and for DPS roles, we strongly recommend doing so. For tanks and healers, however, SimulationCraft can produce confusing or even misleading information. By default, SimulationCraft provides information about damage output and does not consider healing or damage mitigation requirements. Additionally, some support specializations are only partially maintained or run rotations that would not be practical to maintain in a raid or dungeon environment. Support specializations rely on alternative tools for evaluating healing and damage mitigation decisions.
Blood Death Knight Talent Row Simulations
Whilst an APL is available for Dragonflight and the rotational differences between 60 and 70 are small, they still exist, and the focus was level 70 rather than level 60. As a result, your mileage may vary.
You should still take advantage of this fantastic resource, though - a
more approximate than usual metric is still a metric, especially since
the main differences (not having Abomination Limb or
Soul Reaper at all, instead of having to choose between the two)
is minor. To put it in specifics, not having
Abomination Limb
introduces a need to
Marrowrend early in the first
Dancing Rune Weapon of a fight.
