Posted 1/29/2013 1:07:09 AM (Patch 5.1.0)Soul Reaper is our execute ability, this ability becomes top priority when the mob you are on is sub 35% even if it will die before it goes off. This ability is especially important for unholy as it benefits from our mastery. This ability is even useful if the mob dies due to the 50% increase in haste for ~5 seconds. It is worth noting that saving a rune even from ghoul transform to use a soul reaper 1 second later is a dps increase. Keeping this ability on cooldown while the mob is below 35% hp is top priority. ~Tykku
