First of all unholy needs some attention players should be able to go for a single target burst that does not rely on ghoul damage and forced talents. Single target death coil talent buff this would see death coil do similar damage to templar verdicts. Death knight deserves a re work. death knight was once a ret paladin so they should be able to play similar to one festering to build runi and death coil on single target spenders would be fun. Also mabye throw in a healing spell 
death strike sucks

Death Knight as a whole is a pretty clunky spec.
UH works and can do really well. That being said it really doesn’t flow very well. It’s very much a set all the dominoes up on a elaborate way, knock 'em down and enjoy the view, BUT you do one mistake and the whole thing goes to sh!t.
Frost, blood, unholy… All just feel dated. Mind you I played DK since wotlk, but seriously mained from Legion onward so I’ve seen quite a few iterations. Frost is by far the worst of the 3 specs. Blood is weird but kind of cool once you get the gist of it. UH just feels over engineered without any particularly good reasons.
I’d like to see something similar to what you described, a sort of “anti paladin” spec, that hits hard but instead of having loads of useful buffs and friendly utility, it has instead debuffs and enemy utility.

Yeah agreed death knight should be able to hit hard single target and be given a healing spell similar to flash of light but this can only be cast on themselves death knights are for their own ends i dont see this being a problem if anything it will make death knight a more fun class and this is how death knight should have been in the first place. Death knight is under represented for a reason and i dont think blizzard ever knew what they wanted to do with it in the first place. Is this too much to ask with dracthyrs getting a 3rd specc? i think not make it happen blizz dk deserve it it does not have to be op it can be user friendly and fun.

Sure but how to make that attention for the rework since blizzard don’t care about DKS at all ! Forum spams ? I don’t think they even reading things here ! Its sad for all of the DKS that are paying montly to play the game it feels like a scam

BOy cott the class that is how they may aswell delete the specc it is op if you play a boring sweaty way but 90% of the players base dont want to do that or dont want to put up with the bloat they said ret had button bloat how are they turning a blind eye on dk . To give DK another option My idea of bringing the damage in to death coil and festering strike would do that. And to add to that a 3 minute burst window on unholy while other classes are now bursting every minute it is just outdated and clunky

I got hopes that they will do for 10.1.5 becouse dk and specialisation talent need some rework or boost. the feedback is there!!! ( For me army of the dead is to powerful and not used in PvP so make the spec in raids be in descent spot but same time with not strong CD in pvp)
its good but without commander of dead its not worth 8 min in dungeons and there is 2 mandatory talent for ur 4set its bad
Abom Limb should be every minute as it no longer buffs dmg out put it is just a damage spell now. Blizz need to put more damage in to festering and death coil apocalypse and dark transform should also sync with abom and be every minute. death coils should be baseline 30k dmg with potential to crit like templars verdict 50 - 70K . This death coil should only be able to be cast on a single target.
I mostly play pvp so ill try to cry my issues from pvp:
-
Too many offensive cooldowns to click, too many skills to rotate
-
Ghouls are useles vs CCs like roots, snares
-
Ghouls sometimes start moving left-right instead of atracking. (Trying to repositioning?)
-
Ghouls summoning time from apocalypse or raise dead is riddiculous
-
Abomination limb cant be controlled
-
diseases are to easy to dispel/purge. Too small punishment for doing it
-
Abomination limb should be moved to normal talents instead of pvp talent cos Its our must have talent and should be controlled
-
Death cool DMG is too small and sometimes you need to choose what should you do. Death coils or festering wounds to stack necrotic wounds. When you go death coil you overcap runes, when festering wounds you overcap runic power
-
DK can be snared rooted slowed too hard compared to other classes, yes i know we have death grip but Its still too small recompensation. Make death’s advance root/snare destroyer like pally’s Blessing of freedom.
-
Death strike healing is too weak compared to pve power of this skill.
-
Anti-magic Shell is a joke now compared to pally’s shield or lock’s shield. How many chaos bolts can it eat? 1-1.5
-
Redesign magus of the dead talent to switch all ghouls with proportion 2 ghouls for one magus instead of add extra ghoul. Or make this talent a replacemrnt for our ghoul pet, where ours „magus ghoul” leap will be teleport to target back, and our soft gnaw stun a small 1-2s silence
-
I would like to be able to play full death coil build without any ghouls but with some sort of diseases instead of full hybrid disease-coil-festering-pet-Gargoyle hybrid. Or go full disease monster with some Power of undispelable diseases or with dispel punishment like affli locks with their unstable affliction. I miss MOP DK so much.

Unholy DK was always hard to play hard to master, so it is hard to make it balanced. There are too many ways to build it well, every build we go make our other main skills weaker. There is No the golden mean and this is sadge.
Sorry for my english, it is not perfect and my smartphone autocorrection sometimes trolled me. Maybe i am not multiglad DK, Just casual 1800 pvper but DK was my 1st class ever played on original World of Warcraft so i have some sort of nostalgia to MOP DK. Like we sometimes says in my country: it used to be better.
