Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
any chance you could add some "Starter" specs, and where and what to spec doing lvling from 60 > 70> 80, what rotations to use etc?

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
my lvl 58 blood spec for when you get out of the starting area: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=jfVMqhcIcbotzI
my lvl 70 blood spec for levelling: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=jfVMqhcIcbotzAZG0bZc
my lvl 79 blood spec for levelling: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=jfVMqhcIcbotzAZG0x0hZfz
one of many lvl 80 pve specs and also one of the best ones that include annihilation: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=jfVMqI0IcboxzAoG0x0hZfM
the rotation is pretty horrendous though, and requires either unholy pressence or alot of skill+no lag to do perfectly.

Seems like howling blast is getting nerfed on the PTR again, to a 5 sec CD according to ghostcrawler.

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
gah, I really dont like to play with howling blast, nor the DW specs when its on a cooldown. They should find another way of balancing it. :S

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=jfVMqu0I … fzbhxckx0o 44/0/27 spec with heart strike and perma ghoul as well as gargoyle, personally I feel it's an ok spec, with just enough going on to keep it interresting without it getting overly cluttered.

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
Did some testing tonight. Been trying blood in the 10 man naxx and on the dummies(aoe and boss) I got a good feel for how blood will perform and how it scales and how the damage distribution of skills are. I'm not 100% content with blood, it still feels abit lacky, and the insane rotation(IT,PS,HS,HS,OB,IT,PS,HS,HS,HS,HS,(rune-dump)) makes it had to top dps imo. This is even before we take into the consideration on how to AOE as blood(which is terribly complex imo, hehe).
So I got some new weapons, 1handers that is. I decided to try the 0/32/39, and off the bat I was way higher than my honed skills with blood, even with completely wrong glyphs and me as an inexperienced frost player. And, its way more conveinent to play with, less clutter. It simply feels more powerfull, and the numbers quickly showed it. All tho, I'm not a fan of neither frost pve or DW as a DK I'm going to give the 0/32/39 cookie-cutter-top-dps-build a good chance, I have always been to hasty in dismissing its fun-factor(all tho it is not as fun as blood, hehe).
As for unholy 2hand builds, I dont know, rumors has it that it sucks nowdays, good in pvp perhaps.

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
It would be interesting to get some feedback on some deep frost 2hander builds post 3.0.8

Re: Compilation: Death Knight Builds
Tried the frost build. We lost rating, but I guess its not that good for 2x DPS teams or in 2v2. Could be much better in 5v5 or 3v3.

One always lose rating when you change build, takes some games to get used to a new build.
