I've posted this around a few places, but here it is again.


Icy Touch > Plague Strike > Pestilence > Blood Boil > Death Strike > Unholy Blight

Switch target and repeat, using Death Coil for RP dump whenever UB doesn't need refreshed.

Good luck and have fun!

what about death and decay is there a way to squeeze that into a rotation it seems like it does so much damage i was hitting 1k dps in AC on my 66 DK using

DND>IT>PS>Pest>BB(have to wait a few secs to use due to runes being down)>UB repeat

is this any good or is the above rotation better?

You can use DnD. I haven't done enough testing to see if the downtime from having 3 runes on cd at the beginning of the pull hurts the dps of having all of them up to push the rotation further with them.

Will have to do more testing before I could say which does more overall dps then get back to you.

My rotation is as follows.

1) Round up as many mobs is feasible given environmental surroundings
2) Icy touch, Plague strike, Pestilence one mob
3) Cast Death and decay
4) Cast Icebound Fortitude (1 min CD for 20 runic power, why not?)
5) As runes come back Death Strike anything that is alive more so for healing purposes rather than damage. You can get 2 Death Strikes easy which should heal you to full
5) Cast Unholy Blight if you have the talent/have the runic power. Can have it up to finish off mobs or be ready for the next group
6) Repeat

I cant say which presence I like up more, Frost or Blood. If you utilize Icebound Fortitude, I am leaning blood so the mobs drop faster. Dont use unholy presence. 1 sec GCD not needed since you blow your runes really fast as is. And I dont think blood boil is worth while considering the low damage it gives and does not let you Death Strike for health.

Just my 2cp and it works great with no healing downtime.
