Hi, I need some help with Frost DK macros :)
/assist focus
/castsequence reset=10 Mind Freeze, Frost Strike, Frost Strike, Frost Strike, Frost Strike, Frost Strike, Frost Strike, Frost Strike
/cast Dark Simulacrum
/cast Outbreak
/assist focus
/cast Howling Blast
/cast Pillar of Frost
/cast Anti-Magic Shell
and this for self healing
/assist focus
/castsequence Death Strike, Death Siphon
Atm i got Obliterate on a seperate key.
I tryed this setup on the Training dummy and they go out of forst runes and stop dpsing, can anyone help me out with a better macro setup?

I'm using a priority sequence with IS Boxer.
Essentially mashing a bunch of keys.
I haven't really looked if this is entirely optimal, but am boosting 1-80th, with an 85th so it will work.
#1
/cast Howling Blast
/startattack
/use 6
/use 10
#2
Frost Strike
#3
Plague Strike
#4 (Can toggle this one off)
Death Coil

I'm using a priority sequence with ISBoxer.
#1:
/startattack
/castsequence reset=combat Soul Reaper, Death Siphon
/cast [combat] Pillar of Frost
/cast [combat] Anti-Magic Shell
/cast [combat] 14
#2:
/castsequence reset=15/combat Plague Strike, Horn of Winter
#3:
/castsequence reset=combat/10 obliterate, obliterate, howling blast
#4:
Frost Strike
#5:
Frost Strike (just so there is slightly higher chance to use frost strike over the others when its usable)
Also have this on a 6th key:
/cast [@party1, dead, exists] [@party2, dead, exists] [@party3, dead, exists] [@party4, dead, exists] [@party5, dead, exists] Raise Ally
And Howling Blast on a separate key when i just wanna AOE stuff down.
Probably not optimal, but i do 25-30k dps at 87 and steamrolling dungeons.

My ffrost DK uses two sets of macros, my keyboard spams them, I push one button and away we go
Single 1
#showtooltip
/castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat Horn of Winter, Plague Strike
Single 2
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, null
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Obliterate, Obliterate, Howling Blast
Single 3
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, null
/cast Frost Strike
Single 4
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, null
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Empower Rune Weapon, Soul Reaper
Single 5
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, null
/cast Pillar of Frost
Single 6
/cast Raise Dead
AOE 1
#showtooltip
/castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat Horn of Winter, Plague Strike, Blood Boil
AOE 2
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, Blood Boil, null
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Obliterate, Obliterate, Howling Blast, Plague Strike, Death Strike
AOE 3
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, Blood Boil, null
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Frost Strike, Howling blast, Howling blast
AOE 4
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, Blood Boil, null
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Empower Rune Weapon, Soul Reaper
AOE 5
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=combat/alt Howling Blast, Pestilence, null
/cast Pillar of Frost
AOE 6
/cast Raise Dead
I average about 40-50K in heroics, in big AOE piles my current record is 119K DPS.
It's a little clunky and open for improvement, take death strike for example, in a Frost Macro there is no place for it. However I got tired of dying or straining the healer so I added it.
Anyway, I hope this helps.

Just trying to get a few questions answered that I dont have enough experience on:
I have a basic setup for my pvp Frost DKs atm........priority setup of Pillar/trinket/startattack-Howling Blast-Frost Strike-Plague Strike. I recently tried to see if Soul Siphon would mix in and put up decent dps while giving a little heal(my pally heals are lacking), but realize that SS is hitting for about 18k on the test dummy. While Howling Blast hits for around 18k on the main target plus the dot.... Im just not sure if SS is worth it.
Also, im just not having luck with an Obliterate setup(like the one in the post above) and I just might be missing something. But for pvp and running into a single target, is the low chance to catch the proc on Obliterate worth it? Seems like if you dont get a proc, then you are out of runes for a good bit. But I do know that Im loosing ALOT of dps with my basic priority setup since im not casting optimal spells at the correct time.(compared to playing my Dk solo)
The more I think about it, I might try to reforge to Crit instead of Haste so I might not have to rely sooo much on the proc......?
My Dks are really fun in BGs now that I have 100% pvp gear. But they dont have that OPness like they did since Mosg came out with the idea for Cata.
