    As a Frost DK, you have:
    - 2x Frost Runes
    - 2x Unholy Runes
    - 2x Death Runes (which count as all three)

    Outside of PvP, Plague Strike is going to be superior to Necrotic Strike.
    But Howling Blast will be superior to anything.

    And you'll want to spend your Runic Power, as you acquire it.
    Frost Strike is definitely way higher damage than Death Coil; but the sole advantage of DC is that you don't have to be in melee range to use it.

    Howling Blast > Frost Strike > Plague Strike.




    Not sure how this would work out... but something like:

    Macro 1
    #show
    <Insert Assist>
    /castsequence Howling Blast, Howling Blast
    /cast Frost Strike

    Macro 2
    #show
    <Insert Assist>
    /castsequence Plague Strike, Plague Strike
    /cast Howling Blast

    In PVE there is a very specific frost build including rotation where you prioritize HB over obliterate called 'master frost', and in heroic raid gear that gives the best dps. However it's rather 'hard' to play compared to the normal rotation where you absolutely should prioritize obliterate and only use howling blast when rime procs.
