The Trail of Dead: A Dual-Boxers Guide to the Death Knight

[Hachoo]

Honestly my current tanking macro makes it almost impossible to pull aggro off my DK:

Castsequence:

IT>PS>Pestilence>BS>DS

I throw a DnD out just after the icy touch (basically use the IT to pull, then drop a DnD, then continue on with the cast sequence). Once the DND is down I can open up wide with my shamans and not pull aggro - especially once pestilence kicks in.

Once the patch comes out and they drop the cost of Unholy Blight to 40 RP I will add the following line above the castsequence:

/castrandom Unholy Blight,

This will drop through if I spam the button and don't have enough runic power for UB, but if I do have enough RP it will use it. I am probably going to modify my cast sequence to use Blood Boil instead of Blood Strike - I haven't really touched the sequence since I made it since it holds aggro 100% for me already.

Right now I'm using an Icy Touch> Plague Strike> Pestilence> Blood Boil> Howling Blast (or Obliterate if I'm single target tanking) rotation with a castrandom for Rune Strike and Frost Strike in there as well.

But then my DK is frost because he's the designated tank of the Melee group.

What kinda cast sequence are yeh using for the warlock?

For the Dks out there.. get the DnD glyph (makes the mobs cower). WIth 4Dk/priest team when I cast DnD the mobs pretty much cower the entire time.. awesome! (yep I click the windows to cast the spell.. though after a while you get pretty fast at it )

Yeah my DK's are all Unholy and I run a pretty similar spell structure. but typically mobs don't live long enough to do that many spells. After pestilence, I throw down a DnD and then just keep hitting follow while on auto attack, running through and around the mobs. and that technique has worked against mobs and players. Having 5 ghouls helps a ton as well.

Where do you get this glyph?
