Any one find a viable DK option yet?

[BiggyD]

Found a good set up for my hunter and my druid. But I've been playing with my DK specs and they all seem pretty bad.

Any one find anything they like? Spec, gems, etc?

Thanks :-]

Derp is it really that hard to figure out? Frost obv

Blood seems better now with the addition of death siphon and unholy blight (at least in pve...haven't tried pvp yet).

Didn't think frost would do well in pvp, but actually worked pretty well with similar setup to previous commenter (synergy is awkward though). I took plague leech because unholy blight in frost seems like a wasted talent. Also don't recommend wasting a major glyph on anti-magic shell and picking useful minor glyphs instead of those he used. Use glyphed icy touch instead of howling blast.

I haven't experimented with blood too much tbh, thought it was nerfed maybe I'll check it out again. I seem to do a bit better in unholy than frost but still not doing satisfying dmg.

I don't think DK's were doing satisfying damage ever. That's priests, mages, and boomkins right? Hopefully they'll increase melee dmg in a few months...

sorry to say that DK is just bad right now.. My main twink is a DK and he is Full BIS minus OH glaive.. but i have 2 muramasa if i so choose to use them and an Apolyon for 1 hander.
PVP wise.. you hit like a lil girl in all spec.. I re-gemmed from Strength and Resil to PVP power and it did nothing..
PVE wise.. Unholy does the most dps on bosses by about 500 dps(2.5k LOL),, i was doing anywhere from 4-6k on bosses in sunwell as duel weld frost PRE 5.0.4 now im lucky to hit 2k. Tanking is dreadful now too..

Broke as fuck man ..srry. reroll a new twink till they fix it IMO
Im currently playing on my Huntard and healing on a druid till DKs are worth a shit again

We lost runic empowerment, corruption etc. Just that is a massive dps loss. I'm barely playing my dk til this changes (if it does)

Dunno what you guys are doing but that guy i linked (Djßæst @ Defias Brotherhood - Game Guide - World of Warcraft) is doing some proper damage

There's still going to be a reasonably long time between his burst, since you can't regen runes via frost striking any more.
