DK spec

Rusks

Legend
Hi I have a decently geared DK and im rolling 2h blood and unholy for specs and iv tried frost so if anyone wants to help me out That'd be awesome just need spec and rotation to use
 
You can check the Best in Slot sticky and check the talents but i sadly dont feel like helping on the rotation as i'm not a great death knight my self, you are better off asking Taylorswift for dual weild and Wittyscrub for 2 hand.
 
Hey , Taylorswift here Armory :http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/frostwhisper/Tayl%C3%B8rswift/simple



First of All I want you to know that unholy is utter shit ... Me and Wittyscrub (Happybunny :http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/frostwhisper/Happybunny/simple) Tried out unholy yesterday and there isnt really much survivabiley involved the pet damage/Diseases do insane ammount of dmg but it takes time to build up .. me and happy and ast ( 2.4 rogue) did 3s and had Couple wins vs Dbbl Mage / Dpriest but mostly losses to rogue teams . so yeah Dont go unholy its not worth it .



Rotation For frost is quite simple :



as you can see i have Howling Blast Bound to 1 , Frost Strike Bound to 2 , Obliterate bound to 3 , Plague Strike to 4 , Death coil to 5.

Pretty Much Spam Obliterate + Howling Blast and frost strike Comes off use it , ... Pick Obliterate Procs Over Frost Strike procs reason = Oblit proc does around 5-6K and frost strike 3-4k depending on your gear/ AP ,



Against a Mage/x as DK/healer Play as defensive as possible and kill 2x elementals before going for a nuke and instant block on mage , Strt off with a focus strang on the healer ( macro : /cast [target=focus] Strangulate) and 3x Obliterates while your healer Purges off Mage shields + dispelling you "He WILL Block" or dies while in block either Go defensive or make a hardswap to priest with AMS up and priest bursting with shadowfiend + dots , then switch off to mage and kill . this is pretty much all i can give you for now seeing i just got home from work and a bit tired , if people are interrested i will make a more detailed and better discribed guide . peace out // taylor

<

Frost

1. http://www.wowhead.c...RrfzRdcz:aMs0VM

Choose between Frost Strike and DC glyph. This is more of a arena spec. Oblit can't kill a holy pally sadly. Weapon damage has nothinig on 55-60% armor. Plus The resil. Oblit turns out to hit just as hard as FS for the most part.

2. Choose Between the 3 major's which u perfer.



Frost #2

1. http://www.wowhead.c...obfuMdcz:amZ0VM

This is a Oblit spec. All purpose.



.



To any confusion about Obliterate. Unless you are packing dual niffs. FS will usually be superior unless you are attacking cloth wearers. http://www.wowhead.c...I0rsuMdfz:maZ0V is the frost presence spec.



If anyone has experience with killing 40% Resil'd prot pallies and holy pallies with 70 frost dk's please post. I would be quite interested.

Thats pretty much BIS for you. Cinder on MH. FC on OH. Don't Use UH. UH is bad u will only kill people in greens, people that play warriors, and people that play rogue and don't know what they are doing.

Why would you ignore Swordbreaking (nvm I saw the gloves) and Razorice? I'm pretty sure 10% more frost damage on your current target > random boost to shadow damage. Also, why 110 spell pen? You need ~70, which is basically cloak + 1 1/2 gems, so 1 gem + haste/spellpen gem. Not sure why you gemmed 3x spellpen gems in there. Similar question for Madness of the betrayer, crit is quite useless for frost.



@OP, Unholy was powerful pre-cata, but not anymore. the survival or kiting just isn't there.
 
Just got enough soulcloth for cloak
<
, i like my helm tho since i prefer the extra stam im ny gearchoice.



Tailoring provides 400+ap procc which helps quite alot, tailor is debatable but for now on im goin with it else id say im pretty much BiS. Ive tryed other gear sets aswell but this works best imo, steady health, steady resil and 2k AP:)

Static/Passive professions are usually preferred for pvp, or at least on-use, Where you either get an overall benefit to what you are doing, Or stack the on-use (Lifeblood, Pyro-rocket, synapse, etc. ) with ability's, for a greater benefit. As a proc could pop just as somebody gets out of your range, After they use a cool down, ice block, bubble, etc, etc.



Just my two cents on Procs for pvp.

I can see your point there! Tho my Swordguards embrodery only proccs when my target is ice-chained and silenced so its quite viable for me i'd say...

Only? I'm pretty sure it procs on anything. Tailoring isn't really that good for death knights because it doesn't provide str, which scales ghoul/Pillar/runeforge + plate spec. You also have to get 35 more spell pen from somewhere to ensure you don't have Strang/Grip resisted. As such, I wouldn't take it over say...JWC.
