I recently ran VH at 77 with dual crafted blue swords - dual wield unholy - and around 215 hit rating. When stacking hit, you will need to sacrifice other stats, but talents can help with crit. Scourge Strike gets about 15% extra crit rating purely from talents now. I was pleasantly surprised when I whipped the other two DKs in my party on the final boss dps, with about 1550 dps for Cyaginosa, and that was with some rotation screwups. This was using Improved Unholy Presence, which reduces cooldowns of runes by 10%. The spec I'm using looks something like this: http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?deathknight#BT2RVgBW4ffxiPZ,,10482 Weapon damage isn't that significant for Scourge Strike, since a large portion of your bonus damage is made up of diseases. Unholy's melee damage benefits a great deal from haste. This spec is probably much more effective with raid buffs such as Earth and Moon, Icy Talons or Windfury Totem, and obviously Attack Power buffs. Hi.

A Blood spec would value Apen at like a 2.7 APE value, whereas DW would value it at like a 1.7-2.0 APE value. The DW Unholy build is totally viable and works btw. It's very close to Frost. Don't forget to use your Rime procs to fire off HB's with Frost!! Thanks for the linkback. -SJ Heya!! :)
