Death Knight discussion

you have to use blood tap when all your runes are on cooldown.

Hey, first i would like to say one big GZ on LK kill!
I was wondering if Liha or Manchesee that have UH/frost specc can tell me their rotation for that specc, i would be very grateful.
Oh and one more thing, could one of the dks be in the next video of Paragon? =)

Thx

Hello paragon DKs. I got few questions. I hope You will find time to answer.

1.

RGP = 2 second window after any rune comes off of cooldown and is again ready to be used. The rune will start regenerating up to two seconds in advance if it's not instantly used. Two seconds is the maximum time, after which you will harm your DPS - the runes don't ... PREGENERATE (wowzah!) further than that.

So when rune just refreshed i still got time to press DC and not delay rotation?
DC takes ~1,5sec + (human reaction + lag) 0,5sec = 2sec

2.
I got question conserning LK p3 - how to dps best Vile spirits as uh dk? I try to pesti but only few gets diseases , BB or D&D are usefull at any moment?

3.
As dw frost spec DK is wothy to use glyph of Howling blast and respec 3/3 into Chilblains ? Its look interesting to use HB on Vile Spirit to slow them and make burst dmg.

4.
Has You tested glyph of IT in 0/17/54? Looks interesting.

Hey Synti. I've been playing UH or Blood for a while and now consider frost spec but i wonder how to use UA without messing out my runes/causing my diseases to fall off.

That is exactly my problem, too.

1) Yes.
2) Not at all.
3) Doesn't matter on normal.
4) That glyph is standard for Unholy.

I too would like to know the rotation for 0/17/54. Tried to figure out a usable one myself, but I always find myself with a 2-3 sec gap, which I don't know is avoidable or not. (I very much guess it is).

One other thing to be aware of is the gear dependancy. I have yet to obtain 2 pieces of T10, and switch to the Reaping build. Does that apply to the new 0/17/54 build? Or can players without the gear, benefit by switching?

Thx in advance!

Hey synti,

Are you still dnding the valks even as frost? I'm finding if I do i might get a slight delay in my next hb if i dont hit a rime proc. Do you think it's still worth it?

I appreciate your time,

I've always loved Frost, but I've been stuck in blood / unholy after the 2h frost nerf and the DW introduction. Now that frost is all nice and shiny again, I decided to use it :). So... I'm wondering how to put Unbreakable Armor into my rotation, I've been trying to place it in after the death rune obliterate by using blood tap but I fail to reset diseases afterwards.... Oh and congrats on the LK HC kill, you rock ! :P

Hi wanted to give a shout out to Devah aka the hulk (now ur worlds best again) haha.

anyways i have greatly seen the increase of people speccing frost in raids afther 3.3.3 and i have currently 3 death knight's in my crew. just wondering in how much increase utility does the frost dk give over an unholy thinking overall dps isnt realy what im looking most at. like situasjonal burst dmg on oze on purtricide/sindregosa HC ect.. whats your personal point of view on this topic.

Thanks in advance and good luck in Cataclysm

I see that You still using GoD in builds. Blizz tried to change somehow GoD mechanism so i wonder what +disease dmg buffs can we rolled in 3.3.3?
Or only reason to use GoD is to get 1 SS more and lost BS?

reading the entire thread before posting,should be nice.
Btw,as previously said,the only change they made to glyph of disease,is that it no longers roll attack power.
But you can still roll,+dmg buffs,such as trick of the trade.
