About the Author
This guide is written by Khazak, a Death Knight player since 5.4. Besides writing guides, I am a moderator in
Acherus, the Death Knight class Discord
and maintainer on SimC, contributing code and APL for Death Knights. I raid in Agency on Zul'jin US and sometimes stream raids on
Twitch
. I am always happy to take questions or comments about the guide through Discord.
Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Covenant Abilities
Night Fae Death Knight Class Ability:
The Night Fae Class Ability for all Death Knight specializations is
. This replaces
/
for us, effectively just adding the
effect to these abilities.
When in your
, your
/
will debuff any enemies hit, causing them to deal 2% less damage to you and increasing your Strength by 2%. The buff lasts for 12 seconds, and it can stack up to 4 times.
This ability has a lot of potential interactions with our kit. I'd say the main use-case comes through the empowerment of our
window. The extra strength will be very useful during our heavy burst! There are also potential uses where we can extend the buff indefinitely, increasing its power tremendously.
Night Fae Death Knight Signature Ability:
is a mobility ability. Activating it will teleport you forward 15 yards and provide a 50% movement speed increase for 12 seconds. You can reactivate it multiple times during its duration to teleport again (cooldown of teleport is 3 seconds). Using any ability will bring you out of
.
This is such a great ability for us slow Death Knights. Both a teleport and a 50% movement speed boost is such nice utility. When covering a lot of ground or dodging mechanics, this ability will just be so useful.
Night Fae Conduit for
- A simple damage increase to
. Synergises really well with
since the overall damage really becomes quite significant at that point. Also synergises well with
! Generally an S-tier conduit in all content.

Night Fae Exclusive Legendary for Unholy Death Knight
NEW Night Fae Legendary
: The strength gained from
is increased by 3% and lasts 2 seconds longer. While standing in your
your Runic Power generation is increased by 20%.
Increasing the strength gain by 150% is really quite impactful. Popping down
in AoE and starting your
/
gives a 20% boost to your burst window. This is especially powerful when running
+
since the build brings the majority of your burst into the
window.
The extra runic power isn't worth that much, it's a secondary effect compared to the strength gain.
The 3 seconds extra duration opens up the build with a permanent 20% strength buff. Pairing
with
and
gives a substantial window to refresh your
buff. You simply need to make sure you use
/
towards the end of your
buff. You will then get multiple seconds worth of wiggle room to pop down
again and refresh the buff with
/
. The build is viable for single target but lacks the versatility needed to be the go-to pick. It can see niche uses for prolonged stacked cleave.
Other Legendary Interactions for Night Fae Unholy Death Knights
also interacts since it adds an additional benefit to
. You get an extra haste bonus, something that works really quite well with the strength from, especially when combined with
!
Unholy Death Knight Legendary Guide
Best Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Max Renown 80 Soulbind
Dreamweaver is generally the best choice, bringing great utility and damage.
Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Soulbinds
Night Faes have access, across all classes and specs, to the same three Soulbinds: Niya, Dreamweaver, and Korayn. They are the NPCs you complete the zone story with, and allow you to "attune" yourself to them to gain access to a tree of upgrades centered around your base toolkit (through Conduits) and Covenant Abilities (through special, game-wide Traits).
This tree progressively unlocks based on completion steps (such as finishing the Campaign) and your Renown level with the Night Fae Covenant.
We've summarized the optimal traits for each Soulbind below, along with potential Conduits to slot in.
There are four interesting Soulbind Traits for the Niya Soulbind:
- The first Soulbind Trait we receive. This has obvious synergy with both
and
since it allows us to gain stacks of Redirected Anima more often. It's important to note that the stacks gained are nerfed by a factor of 4 for Unholy! This means that we only gain 2 stacks whenever we use
. It's still a good spell and a solid DPS increase!
- A solid DPS boost as a last Soulbind spell.
- A potential DPS boost if there are targets that can be interrupted. Has the benefit of allow 2 Potency Conduits on its path.
is fully connected to the first soulbind spell
. It essentially increases mastery gained for a short duration given that at least one out of 5 close allies isn't Night Fae. This will most often be the case, even if Night Fae is a popular covenant overall. It's a nice boost as a final soulbind.
Niya is overall a solid soulbind that works well everywhere. Doesn't quite bring enough utility and damage to be considered best.
Dreamweaver provides three very interesting traits:
- A budget Cheat Death that can be extremely valuable. It does require your pod to not take too much damage after you die, making dying in fire a bad idea. However, for when you do get rejuvenated, this spell has so much value. For progression raiding, it just brings so much to the table. Also good in mythic + but not nearly as much as in raids.
- Similar to
, this spell has great synergy with
and
. It's also nerfed for us though, again with a factor of 4 so the haste buff only lasts 2.5 seconds. Still a really nice ability that is an okay DPS gain.
- A very simple 3% raw damage boost. Solid across the board and generally a really good spel.
Dreamweaver has great utility with the
cheat death as well as good damage. Generally considered the best Night Fae soulbind.
Korayn has three traits that are the most impactful to us:
- A solid DPS boost that really fits our damage profile. We get a big boost at the early stages of a fight in conjunction with our
burst! Generally, the damage increase isn't that useful since we get it when we don't need it. The first 25% of a boss fight is generally the easy bit.
- This is an interesting spell that really works well in mythic +. In a raiding environment, you won't have a lot of uptime on this spell. In mythic +, this will be active in every pack! We do get the drawback of losing a Potency Conduit though.
- An interesting spell that has some applications. First of all, it requires you to have triggered
within the previous minute. After this point, you need to either hit a target below 35% health or heal an ally who is above 75% health. This comes naturally with targets that die quickly, like adds. Outside of such scenarios, it's more difficult to trigger it.
Korayn works okay everywhere, especially in Mythic+ with
and
. Not quite as competitive as the other options though.
Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Covenant Rotation Changes
As usual, this page only highlights the specific use case of the Class and Signature Abilities. To see how they fit within the context of the entire spec, we encourage you to check the other pages in the guide related to the context you are looking for:
Unholy Death Knight Rotation Guide
Due to the strength we can gain from
, we'll want to use this spell on cooldown. Furthermore, it's advantageous to pool some resources before we pop down this ability in order to gain as big a strength buff as possible. We do have quite a lot of space to pool resources without overcapping, making this a viable choice in the rotation. Do make sure to never have more than 3 Runes ready though, that's the point when you start overcapping.
Use this whenever you're in need of a teleport or speed boost. Do make sure to save it for phases of heavy movement, especially when you're running without hitting the boss. It's also great for emergency use to get out of abilities, or teleport across patches of fire.
Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Talent Builds
Unholy Death Knight Talents
is the one potential talent change you'd make when running Night Fae. This is probably only if you can utilize the indefinite strength buff, so don't pick it as a default choice.
Night Fae does synergize well with our wound-build in mythic + by buffing our
window. Playing around
s puts a lot of our burst into this window, making it specifically useful to buff ourselves at this point.
Night Fae Unholy Death Knight Gearing Differences
Night Fae might favor slightly more haste. Haste helps with consistent stacking of the strength buff, increasing the power of the
ability.
Double Legendaries for Night Fae Unholy Death Knight
Patch 9.2 adds the option of using two legendaries at the same time, with the restriction that one of them is your Covenant legendary. This change empowers Night Fae Unholy Death Knight even more. You can learn more about it in our Legendary Guide.
