Ok, so i've got to thinking, group of 5 Death Knights, Blood Spec. Sequence a Rune Tap to go off every 6 seconds. Stacking Blood Aura, and Spamming Death Strikes. Would this work, potentially up to and including running heroics?

Refer to the movie section. It is feasible and is being done currently. =)Quote:

Oh, right. I generally view these boards from work, so I can't really watch movies. How's it working out? Anything to know before going in? I'll go read those threads now and see what you've posted already.
It's going great. Just make sure you are 2/2 Blood Aura, 3/3 Blood Worms, 3/3 Vendetta and the rest is up to you depending on your level. I have concluded that Unholy deep enough to get a fulltime ghoul and it glyphed is mandatory as well. Incredible for PVP!Quote:

Ok, think I'm going to shoot for 35/0/14 out of the starting zone, dump the next 12 points in to a perma-ghoul once I get 70, then snag anti-magic zone and drop the rest in to Toughness for a final 35/4/32. Have you experimented with Glyph of Death Strike any?
Glad I cam accross this thread, as I've just started my 5 DK group! :D
Can I ask what Glyphs you are using?
Cheers,
S.
I use the rune tap glyph (heals everyone in group) and the ghoul glyph (ghoul gains 40% sta and str of you) the rest is just gravy. Pick what you like using I guess.
Glyph of Death Strike seems lame, 2% more damage... I dunno how that can be considered a major glyph.
One minor glyph that I consider mandatory is the -reagent cost for ghoul. God I love not worrying about if I have enough dust on me.
I run a 4 DK and one resto druid team btw, they are 77 and clearing every dungeon with minimal deaths. I'm not sure how good they will be in heroics, we will see =)
I like pestilance glyph, rune tap, ghoul reagent, death strike (2% per every 5 runic power is what it says if you glyph it, just says 2% before you do), and horn of winter.
I have 4 blood down to vampiric, frost down to annihilation and rest unholy. One is frost down to frost aura for resists and rest in blood.
I love them and cross my fingers they put in another hero class sooner rather than later. Imagine a shadow priest that can actually heal through damage. It would be like a warlock and priest mixed. Healing or damage pets. Still cloth/leather so no getting beat on, but crazy fun with damage and pets. I mean if a DPS class can heal through damage, then a healing class should be able to damage and heal at the same time also.
Its 2% per 5 RP, so you could potentially be looking at up to a 40% bonus if you wanted to really micro-manage your RP.Quote:

Just to add incase anyone wasn't aware, when lichborne is popped you can be healed with death coils
There is also a minor glyph which refunds 20rp after healing with a death coil
lol didnt know that, but it seems very situational and clunky to me.
My DKs are now 78, (F U Zuldrak collection quests from HELL.) and I just went straight to Storm Peaks after finishing the oracle quest line in STV2.0
One word of warning, dont train Cold Weather Flying if you want the free loaner mount from the chick at K3. I didnt know that and was planning on saving 200g to get a loaner to fly me to ebon hold to buy my flying chickens. Now I gotta figure out how to hoof it there :cursing:
edit: hell I am not even sure I can get to ebon hold without a flyer, my first group already had epic flyers when I hit that zone... grrrr
You can get flyers from the place your deathgate takes you to. The flyers you get there scale with your flying skill.
I have some hesitation about vendetta. I think you only get the heal if "you" kill the mob and that means only one toon out of five will get the heal per kill, at least that is how butchery worked for me when i had it (but with rune power gain in place of heal).
Yep, this is pretty much how any ability that says you need tokill a target that yields experience or honor works. You must land the killing blow for it to proc. Not good for boxers...Quote:

I'd like to nominate Glyph of Icebound Fortitude. Being able to use IBF when you need to without a worry about RP can be a life saver. Granted, I'm looking at it more from a solo perspective since my 5 box group of DKs is only 61.
Glyph of Horn of Winter is actually very bad now. Not sure if it was fixed in 3.0.9, but in 3.0.8 if someone with the glyph had cast HoW, unglyphed players would not be able to cast it as there was a "more powerful spell active". This might not matter if all 5 have the glyph, but it gives no benefit except saving a GCD every 2 minutes.

Last I checked, it still does that. However, if you add /cancelaura Horn of Winter to your macro just before casting it, you will remove the buff and not get the error that says you already have a more powerful spell active. Hope that helps.Quote:

Ok i been looking at everything trying everything testing everything for the last two days boy am i tired. Well lets see first ive tried almost every build i can make to maximize dps. The most i got at lvl 80 with castsequence mash was 1200. This is with blues and greens ranging from lvl 74 to 78. Anyone else have ne better luck and have a good sequence that would maximise all the cd's.
Ok update this is my spec and my gear on a lvl 80 dummy i hit 1900 dps wewt not bad for the gear i think.

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-s...n=Deathbytotem
My castsequence is as follows.....it,ps,hs,hs,ob,dc..two reg whacks round two..hs,hs,hs,hs,dc.
After that i hit 1500-1900 dps i am going to tweak it a little bit more to see if there is cd's on my runes up to use for more dps i wanna break 2k so i can get into roics and have np with them.
Your talent page is empty, you need copy the URL at the bottom of the page once you set it up. Interesting you hit 1900 dps, my guys are struggling with 1200. But it may be due to my talent choices being more about surviving than dpsing.
I'll try your cast sequence to see if it can get me more dps. Thanks.
edit: you are using Heart Strike, make sure you are near no other dummies or it will inflate your dps as it hits more than one target. No need to link the talents I got them from your armory.
Can some others running 5 DKs post your talent specs please?
