Death Knight solos Onyxia
Death Knight solos Onyxia There's also some concerns about Bone Armor and the Unholy tree from some quarters. While Bone Armor, thanks in part to a shorter cooldown, does seem to have superior mitigation against a single target, Unholy also seems to be the AOE damage and tanking tree, with abilities that strengthen Death and Decay and Blood Boil as well as extra abilities such as Unholy Blight and Corpse Explosion.
However, since Bone Armor only has 4 charges, they could concievably be used up very quickly in a multi-mob situation. Hopefully, the new longer internal cooldown may help that bit, as could the possible new late Unholy tanking talent.
With how fascinated players are with using Onyxia as a benchmark, it was only a matter of time before our new legions of Death Knights tried their hand at it. Scarblade, a poster from the MMO-Champion forums, seems to hold the prize for world first solo Onyxia kill by a Death Knight. At least, as far as we know, and as of the latest beta patch.
Will it count when Wrath goes retail? Who knows? We're a fickle bunch. Either way, I sincerely doubt many others attempted this as a Death Knight before Scarblade, because running around doing those attunement quests on the beta realms must be brutal even at level 80. You're just going to have to do it all over again!
Still, Scarblade was a trooper and went through the whole ridiculous attunement process. He says he tried both Frost and Blood specs before ultimately settling on an Unholy build that won the day for him. Personally, I expected this kill to have been done using a deep Blood talent spec with how well they solo.
Yes, Scarblade did earn an Achievement for killing the ol' gal. Two, actually. One for just plain killing her, and one for killing her solo.
