DK tanking and key-bindings in general.
I think i read a post about DK tanking on this forum once, but now i cant find it. Sorry if this topic has been brought up before. :)
I'm currently 5-boxing using a feral tank, and it works great. Cleared most heroics without problems, but i'm ready for a change. Leveling my DK now, and it's at 76. I've tried tanking a few instances using my team, but i'm kinda stumped at the complexity of handling my DK, healer and DPS'ers at the same time. Using my feral tank, i have one (1) macro button, aswell as Swipe on a separate key. It works wonders ;) It also means i can use keys 2-9 for my slaves, making keys easy to reach. With DK, i got 7000 situational skills at my hands, making it a bit harder.
So my question is, how do you people using DK tanks set up your keys, macros and skills? How many buttons do you use for your DK? Are there any magic one-button mayhem DK tank macros? I'm Frost now btw, but will aim for Unholy for the 12% damage buff when i hit 80. Actually, i dont care what classes you play, i'm still interested to hear how you guys set up your keybindings.
My current key setup using old team (Feral tank, 2x Elemental Shaman, Frost Mage, Discipline Priest)
1 - Tank! (Maul, FF, Swipe, Mangle on castrandom).
2 - DPS current target.
3 - Flash Heal tank.
4 - Prayer of Healing (modifier: Glyphed Holy Nova).
6-7 - refresh buffs (Water Shield, Mage Armor etc).
W - PW: Shield and Prayer of Mending on tank, as a castsequence.
A - All drink/eat.
F1 - F5 - Totem rotation + situational totems, Thunderstorm and Earth Shock (interrupt).
G - Follow tank.
T - Spread out (modifier: reverse movement).
Q - Swipe
D - All out button. Heroism, Earth Elemental etc.
I usually just click Barkskin, Survival Instict and Berserk when they are needed. For all trash, and 90% of all bosses, all i use are keys 1, 2 and 3.
