Frost seems pretty weak without obliterate, have you tried unholy or even blood? I rememe on my old 60 twink doing much more dps as unholy or blood (yeah tank spec)
I've tried Blood and Unholy on my NE DK when I had one and I felt like it was too slow. Frost is surprisingly good, albeit I don't hit for too much when I don't crit, but when I do crit it's for a good amount and I attack pretty fast for someone with a 2H.
My rotation is : Icy Touch > Plague Strike > Death Strike > Death Strike > Frost Strike > Frost Strike > Repeat
Pretty simple, my Icy Touch turns into a slow on them as well as increasing damage because of Brittle Bones. PS is just another disease to toss on. DS hits for a good amount and heals me for a bit. Frost Strike is where my true power is; Crits often because of Killing Machine, is up almost all the time, and, because of all the bonus from my spec and Rune of Razorice, it hits EVEN harder.
I'm sure it isn't the bets spec to go with, but it feels better to me than Blood and Unholy did. Blood and Unholy take too much work to setup, spreading diseases and what not; I have only a few spells to worry about and that's all I need. Also, having a free Mind Freeze is INSANE vs. casters, but mostly healers. I love it ><
