I've been testing out my new spec with "Scent of Blood". Overall, I like it and I feel it gives me a lot more runic power.

In fact, it seems that I have a bit too much. My frost strikes are going so often that my Necrotic Strike doesn't go and my Unholy Runes are left up for far too long.

After considering the talents again and reviewing many PvP articles and top-end Frost DKs, I decided to try this spec out.

In this spec, I opted NOT to take the "Improve Frost Presence" talent. The only benefit is provides is 4% RP generation is retained and I believe we get a lot more from "Scent of Blood" procs.

I haven't done the math, so correct me if I'm wrong.


Instead, I put the points into "Annihilation" and picked up the Glyph of Obliterate.


I'll test this out tonight and see if it helps making the first kill.


My main strategy is to start dps on a plate-wearing target, then mass-death grip, mass strangulate, switch targets and do Empower Rune Weapon + Obliterate + Hungering Cold + Arcane Torrent on round-robin for the initial kill.

I'm thinking with the above spec the burst from 3 obliterate in a row should kill anything.
