A few addons recently updated or have caught my eye, and some well-written reviews.
But first a quick personal update from me. I’ll be posting on dk.info less often for the remainder of the year, as I’m busy with a move back to Australia. Then to frustrate me, tonight pwnwear is up and down for maintenance whilst my hosting company upgrades my blog’s server, so I thought heck I’ll ramble on here instead.

PTR 3.22 for DPS and Tanks bears some good news.
Tanks can now consider unholy and frost as proper equals to blood tanks. Unbreakable Armour being one minute and buffed to +armour again makes it mathematically similar to the damage reduction of bone shield. I expect UA duration to be put to 15s down from current PTR 20 seconds to balance it out, sine Bone Shield is now 3 charges (+1 from glyph) on PTR and Vampiric Blood is 10s (+5s from glyph).
I did some analysis on Unholy tank builds in …
