Unholy Death Knight Playstyle for Torghast, Tower of the Damned
- Use
Anti-Magic Shell before a magic debuff is casted on you, to prevent the application of the debuff.
- If a mob is able to be
Death Gripped, then you can use that to also interrupt that mob, acting as another interrupt utility.
- Certain powers pair up very well with each other. For example:
Ancient Drake Breath and
Boundless Fortitude.
