"Unholy actually has great AoE. stemming from the fact that Death and Decay benefits from our mastery and that Pestilence allows us to work around the AoE damage cap"

Unfortunately, compared to howling blast spam, this isn't as true as it used to be. I remember those days back in wrath on those huge trash packs in ICC where dps would spike way above everyone else. Or the DK in my main's (mage) raid who I could just never come close to on those AoE packs. I did a review of WoL logs for a previous dps post, and the only Unholy DK's parses that were doing top damage were on single-target, not AoE fights. Top DK parses were coming from howling blast spamming frost dk's on aoe fights.

It appears as though unholy has not completely recovered from the Great Nerf of 4.06.
