Hoe much DPS are your DKs doing?

Is there a way to limit spam speed in isboxer to an optimal limit?

I do about 11k dps single target. My spam speed is quite fast.
I'll try different spam speeds and report back.

If you check the box, Do Not Advance For At Least.
And fill in a number.
The mapped key won't advance to the next step for that long.
However it will try to execute the current step on each press.

If you were to add a blank step between each existing step.
And have that step not advance for a duration.
That would effectively throttle your spam to a maximum of "x" clicks per "z".

Endless winter makes it so that you are not losing a frost strike in order to interupt.

yeah but doubling my dps seems really silly (6k ->13k). I am getting one more frost strike per 10 secs. Does that seem right? I'm leaning towards something being not "max skill level" before I reset my talents.

Frost strikes hit pretty hard, and reset runes. If you are losing out on a frost strike every 10sec over a long period of time that's a lot of missed rune resets and damage.

6k dps per sec if you lose one? That seems a bit extreme.

6k dps per sec if you lose one? That seems a bit extreme.

Frost strike can crit up to 20k.... which is substantial damage, and has a 45% chance to refresh a rune... 2/3 of which can be used for more howling blasts.

6k dps per sec if you lose one? That seems a bit extreme.

You're not just losing 1 Frost strike... You can be losing an obliterate or howling blast on top of the frost strike because of the rune resets.

I did a little testing today.

My DK's are iLV 354.
They have Conquest: Chest, Shoulders, Gloves, and 2H Swords.
Their remaining pieces are Honor.
They have no click trinkets for DPS (Chance on damage +912 Str & PvP Trinket).

I was using only (Team) buffs for these tests.
Specifically: Kings (Pally), Horn of Winter, Flask of Enhancement (Alchemy).
No pets were used, this is straight DK DPS.

Did two of each test, so the average should be decent.
Made sure there were no debuffs on the Target Dummies.
