Definitely for AoE tanking. This + https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/spell=49941 provides great AoE tank synergy.

This realy sounds like a Unholy ability, but it's Blood.

Kommentar von 109245

actually this spreads ALL diseases, not just one

Kommentar von 145178

question:

When you spread the diseases, do the additional targets get a disease with a FULL duration, or lets say if my frost fever had 4 seconds left they get a 4 seconds lasting frost fever?
Also: IF it applies a full 12 sec frost fever, does it also refresh it on the main target you cast it on?

If yes, then this would be a nice tool to refresh Frost fever + Blood Plague with 1 blood rune, so you can use more Obliterate / Scourge stike / Howling Blast / Whatever.

Has anyone tested Blood Strike, Heart Strike, and/or Pestilence with diseases from other players?

For example:

So let me get this straight, it makes a new dicease land on target if u use this on a mob with that dicease on?

So if your fighting more than one, you can change target and refresh diceases by using one blood rune instead of a frost and unholy rune?

Awesome

Would just like to add if you want to add to disease factoring skills like Blood/Death/Heart/Plague/Scourge Strike, Blood-Caked Blade, and Obliterate you can use "Gift of Arthas".

Even though the effect is weak: Shadow Resistance 10 and 30% chance that if a mob hits you it contracts a disease that increases dmg taken by 8. Lasts 3min.

It shines in that it adds to a DKs dmg just by it being a disease :) So thats Disease x4 for us Unholy 8D

This spell does not avoid CC. Consequently, neither does howling blast.

I really wish they would change this.

Kommentar von Corbomite

Asuming I spread the Devouring Plague using this ability. Will it simply be copied or will the damage be recalculated using the priests spellpower at the point of time I use Pestilence? Or will it even use my spell power / attack power / ... ?

Kommentar von hypehuman

It seems like this can only spread a maximum of six diseases per cast.

I was testing this out on target dummies, alternating pestilence on different targets to keep up all the diseases from players who happened to cast them. I was going with six (including my two), but when another player came and added two more, then instead of my Pestilence spreading them all, it only spread the first six.

@ PelzigesWaldtier
First of all, DK does not use spell power, all of DKs skills are based on AP
And yes, Pestilence will copy you diseases as they are (with coeff from your AP), nothing will be recalculated.

Pestilence is great way for keeping up diseases on targets in aoe (tanking or dpsing). You just put all diseases you have on 1st target, use Pestilence, and before they'll fade you can just change target, cast Pesti again, before fading you can again change target, and cast Pesti. This way you can keep up diseases using only 1 blood rune on your targets .

In the next minor patch - 3.0.8 - the cooldown of Pestilence will be completely removed.

Kommentar von Nazeka

~~Anyone know how well this scales with AP?~~
Worthless as of 3.1, pestilence deals 0 damage and will always deal 0 damage unless they change it

Kommentar von 226705

If the DP of my priest is spread across multiple mobs, does my priest get the threat for it, or does the casting DK get all the threat?

It would be a rare occasion, but I can imagine the risk of a DK casting pestilence to early by mistake (or mindlessly rotating while his diseases didn't hit) spreading only my disease, possibly resulting in me running for my life. In which case it would mean I have to keep an eye out before casting DP.

With the removal of the Cooldown with the recent patch it is now possible to use Pestilence to refresh the CD of all diseases on all targets you are "tanking" or "dpsing" but for this to work you must have atleast 2 mobs.

When all the diseases are spread among their targets and about to fade, use your first pestilence on your main target, this will spead and refresh the diseases on all targets but the main.

Then tab target and use pestilence to spread the disease again, this will allow your main target's diseases to be refreshed at the cost of only 2 runes instead of a full disease rotation of 3 allowing your 2 frost and 2 unholy to be used as needed.

As of patch 3.1 (Ulduar), Pestilence will have it damage remove and only spread disease.

Pestilence – this spell no longer causes damage but just spreads diseases. Blood Boil is intended to be the general area attack, and has been changed to be castable on targets with no diseases on them, but does extra damage if diseases are present.

Kommentar von Xhougnaamn

There is a glitch with the tooltip on this spell.
As you may have noticed, it says the radius of effect is 0 yards, when actually it's 5 yards.

Edited for 3.1

Kommentar von 328901

Any Dk, unholy or not will want to pick up the glyph for this, now or when it goes live, since it will refresh diseases on the primary target freeing up some much needed glyphs during dps rotations.

If it refreshes and passes the diseases on in the same hit it might actually be one of the best glyphs out there. But wishful thinking.

Kommentar von Fathomable

~~Heard somewhere that they'll remove the CD on Howling Blast making it a great source of AoE damage together with pestilence.~~

Proven wrong in 3.10 in which they revamped Howling Blast to no be directly affected by Frost Fever, but through Glacier Rot you still get a 20% damage bonus on diseased targets. Current best AoE with Howling Blast through Pestilence disease application is 4300 Damage on 8 Targets.
