So, in the interest of reporting how it worked out, I respec'd Frost so see how it went. The end result should be obvious given the title of the post. So here's the list of what I miss about Unholy:
1) Master of Ghouls: Ghouls are pretty over-powered, at least at my level. My ghoul's white DPS is higher than mine, and it can occasionally steal aggro from me if I miss a strike early on or something. Being able to have a permanent ghoul takes a load off your mind and is a pretty significant increase in your overall DPS output.
2) Unholy Blight: A permanent 3rd disease is amazing in practice. Death Strike heals for more, and Blood Boil becomes amazing (especially with Outbreak). The damage of Unholy Blight in and of itself isn't amazing by any means, but having that 3rd diseases snowballs into more damage across your entire rotation.
3) Epidemic: that extra 6 seconds makes all the difference. It's an extra round you can go without re-applying Icy Touch and Plague Strike, which means another Scourge Strike / Death Strike every other round.
Frost and Blood can produce more individual DPS, but when you factor in the ghoul and all the great things Unholy has to offer, it's the best leveling spec.
Notice is said "leveling" spec. What's good for leveling isn't always good for raiding, or maybe it won't be as good as my ghoul becomes relatively weaker. Point being, it'll probably be Northrend before I consider another spec.
