get as much aoe threat and damage possible Now understand that this spec is mostly done to :
Another point is that Dancing Rune Weapon isn't that great due to the huge Runic Power cost, and you might want not to take it till you've got the uh sub tree filled. Only go into unholy when blood is filled. Yes, the tanking specs (specially the one dipping in uh for Desecration) works, but honestly, they are more tailored for raids, and you can go better in instances with an instance-tailored build, something like that : DK cds are nice, specially vampiric blood glyphed (you don't gain life but all healing is far better, so popping it before rune tap and a coupld death strikes is a great way to get back up from low life).īone shield is nice too, try to have it up before each pull (so the rune used is back or nearly back when you pull). It's only something you'll learn with time and experience, and is mostly something you "feel", and you are prepared to when you know the dungeons/fights and what can go wrong then you'll need to learn to manage your runes, because rune starvation is something that can make your life hell. Hence the extremely good advice of the previous poster to get Blood Shield Tracker which will allow to see when using Death Strike will get you an "above minimum" shield. first, the difficulty in dk tanking is getting the most out of Death Strikes and Blood Shields. Death Knight tanks have a bit more ramp up time vs larger groups than the other tanks, due to disease application, DnD helps alleviate that "downtime" a lot. TL DR - check the Elitist Jerks post above, and remember that Death and Decay is important. Once you have no runes availiable, tab between targets with Rune Stikes. Against very large groups, personally I'd say 6+, swap out Heart Strike for Blood Boil. Then it simply becomes a case of Heart Strike with blood runes, and Death Strikes with frost/unholy/death runes. You then spread the diseases from the initial target with Pestilence, to apply the attack speed slow and Scarlet Fever talent to all the mobs. Your basic opening when pulling a group should generally be - Death and Decay, diseases (applied with Icy Touch and Plague Strike, until you get Outbreak at level 81). I recommend downloading the addon "Blood Shield Tracker" to help with this. This is to maximize the amount of healing you receive from it, and, once you get mastery at level 80, the resulting Blood Shields. With the way DS works nowadays, you will want to try to make sure you use it immediately after taking at least SOME damage. As the above poster said, the EJ post will provide the necessary information you need to grasp the basics so check that link out for sure. There's no "rotation" for tanking, you use what you need to use, when you need to use it.
