Blood DK - Tank Edition

love this CR, works great.
only thing that would make it more awesome is the hotkey feature expanded to more mod button then ALT.
 
Hi Pasterke, are there any specific talents you recommend a tank has for your routine?
I note you suggest defile ?
 
Testing it out now, only issue I see is that it's constantly trying to cast Oralius' Whispering Crystal, even though I already have a Greater Draenic Stamina Flask on...
 
Best CR! The only problem is, in LFR the CR works great for me, in normal Flex the CR doesn´t make anything, it loads up but nothing happens. Using it with Lazyraider Framelock 30. Any suggestions?

Maybe LazyRaider settings ?

I use Enyo and have no problems with it.

Hi all,

I know I’ll probably get a hate response or two :-P

Just wondering if anyone is noticing that the DPS is rather low on the routine?, Don’t get me wrong the tanking aspect is second to none and I love the survivability it offers. It’s just I was in a HC pug the other day with a DK of similar gear and ilvl and he was pulling a good 7k more dps than me?

Is there something I’m missing?

Thanks in advance

IDK, I just use the spells if I can use it. Beside Death Coil and Death Strike we have not that big choice :)

same ilvl != same gear. You can go for dps gear or survival gear :)

Be sure to use Defile, it's much stronger than Death and Decay.

But use it and give feedback where you think I can change it. Still working on it now.

I made a few changes to the routine to better suit a raid rank environment.

removed melee range check for death pact

changed death strike logic
-The routine now doesn't use death strike at full hp because death strike is our main mitigation tool.
-It uses it at full hp if we have all of our runes available or more than 3 death runes.

changed blood tap logic
-Only uses blood tap when it's going to cap charges. I think it might be best to have the user decide when it needs the blood tap charges. There isn't a reason to use blood tap as soon as you hit 5 charges because blood tap is supposed to be used for the control such as taking an unusual amount of damage and you quickly need to use 2 or 3 death strikes to heal back up. Runic corruption provides more runes overall and should be used instead of blood tap if the logic does not change.

commented out icy touch and plague strike because I outbreak glyph
-I don't think icy touch or plague strike are ever worth using if you use glyph of outbreak unless you are not using blood tap and maybe runic corruption.

I think these would be great additions to the main cr if you are looking to make it more of a raid tanking cr.

I've used all of the paid routines, but they are pretty much garbage atm for tanking because they all use death strike at full hp which makes our class much weaker at tanking than it should be.

Great work on the routine and I love how I'm able to actually change the file to fit my needs.

And what skill do you use instead of Death Strike ?

At what HP% you use Death Strike ?

So only use blood tap below certain HP % or using it if it hit the 12 stacks ?

Edit : I changed the routine with your suggestions. Test it out :)

You still use death strike, but instead of using it all at once, you wait until you get hit. So sort of reactive tanking. You get hit and take damage, and you heal up with death strike.

I would use blood tap if we fall below the death strike hp % value you added (looks nice btw) or we are at or above 11 stacks. Scanning over your edit, it looks mostly right, but I would use blood tap at >= 11 stacks. Also maybe you'll have to add to the first line to check if we have depleted runes? (I'm a noob, ignore me if I'm wrong).

On line 241 of DKRotation.cs maybe add || UnholyRuneCount = 2 && FrostRuneCount = 2 ? I can't test anything right now because hb isn't updated but I'll be sure to test it asap. :)
 
You do realize deathstrike puts a bubble on you. And it's OKAY to have an absorb bubble at 100%. Not to mention that deathstrike is a huge dps source as well.
 
I cant get the edits to run at all, and even tried some of my own coding onto it, and cant get the routine to run at all period. any advice ?
