Frost DPS | Winter of Discontent [4.3] - Elitist Jerks
my rotation for master frost WITH 4pc T13 is:
POF+Raise Dead
Blood Tap
Diseases(outbreak/PS if Blood disease falls off)
HB(Rime/Endless winter)
Oblit(KM)===>>>> reasoning for this over the FS with KM proc is the 2pc t13 oblit's can grant on chance 2 procs of Rime
Obilt(both Fr and Uh runes are up)
Frost Strike(KM)
Oblit(2 death runes)
Frost Strike(RP capped)
Oblit(2 Uh runes)
HB(< 90 RP)
Frost Strike(> 90 RP)
HB(< 60 RP)
HB(> 60 RP)
Frost Strike(> RP)
than your HoW check can be place here if you want.
Reasoning for how I break up the rotation like i do is to have as little dead time as possible while trying to game RP for Frost Strikes for the 4pc T13 which effects Runic Empowerment. At the same time I am trying to make sure oblit's are used enough so i can take advantage of additional Rime procs which is free dps imo for the 2pc t13 bonus.
If the player does not have any t13 than oblits should honestly never be used As it would be a waste of undeath/Frost runes that can be used for more Howling blasts as it benefits from the Frost DK's mastery along with using Frost Strikes for the Killing Machine procs as Frost Strike also takes advantage of the mastery for Frost DK's....
ALSO VERY IMPORTANT FOR IF YOU ARE WANTING TO USE MASTER/POWERFORST IN RAIDS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SOME SORT OF CURSE OF ELEMENTS DEBUFF PROVIDED IN THE RAID. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS THAN THIS PLAYSTYLE IS GIMPED.
Disclaimer: this is what works for me and my 10man group i usualy rank every fight in normal and in hm raids.
Ultraxion I am listed in the 40's in both 10 man and in 25 man at 37-39k dps
