Blood Death Knight Tank Simulations — The War Within (11.0.7)
On this page, you will find a number of useful simulation results for your Blood Death Knights in World of Warcraft — The War Within (11.0.7).
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 The War Within, it is still being actively iterated on. As a result, your mileage may vary, and you should check the pins in Acherus to see if there is a temporary APL in the works.
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.
