[3.2] Death Knight Leveling spec and Raiding spec.

Post by TehTerokkar

Many people are clueless about the right leveling specs and raiding specs, so I made this little thread.

Spell Names:

IT - Icy Touch
PS - Plague Strike
HS - Heart Strike
OB - Obilerate

Blood

okay, Blood is the best for leveling and the best for Raiding(DPS). The Specs which I found best are here:

Raiding:http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#jfVMVh0IcfofostZfMhhx0b:IaLMmV
Rotation: IT > PS > HS > HS > OB
Pretty standard Raiding spec with most of the Damage increasing abilities

Leveling:http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#jfVMVhcIsfMbostG0xxh:IVoVmM
Rotation: IT > PS > HS > HS > DS
Best Leveling spec out there, as far as I'm concerned

Frost

Okay! Frost! Here are the specs I found best(not that sure about tanking but correct me ;)

Raiding:http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#j0EMZhxxtA0Izc0fokAo0x:TRwVMm
I dont know the rotation ;) Havent experienced end game tanking.

Leveling:http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#j0EMZGxxxV0hkfzbuzAo0xb:TkoVMm
This spec is made for AoE Grinding so that u might take on 3-10 mobs at a time.
Dont know rotation.

Unholy

Wont discuss about this, only good for PvP,
So Here's the PVP Spec:http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#j0xZMxxZcxMIxfd0fzzzuIqo:MRrMVm

This 'guide' is lacking a lot of things and your knowledge about the class in general seems to be pretty low as well.

How will you help anyone by giving them a spec but writing stuff like: This spec is made for AoE Grinding so that u might take on 3-10 mobs at a time.
Dont know rotation.

And how is Unholy only good for PvP? That's ridiculous.
You do know that there are Frost 2H specs along with dual-wield DPS specs right? Same for Unholy. It's like you've posted things which you haven't even tried. Playing around with the Talent Calculator and posting it and saying it's a 'guide' if it seems right to you is not going to help anyone.

Also, you could have gone a bit more in-depth about all the things you wrote like adding in what Glyphs to use and secondary rotations etc. etc.

Overall, I don't think this will help a lot of people.

First: when making a guide, avoid "ur" at all costs. It detracts from your credibility and makes people less likely to listen to what you have to say. This isn't your AIM chat with your buddy: you're trying to teach someone here. (in before "lol it's the internet")

Second: Blood is _not_ the best for raiding (12% ArP nerf and ToGC saw to that) and it certainly isn't the hard and fast winner for leveling either.

Third: your Glyph choices are deplorable. You Glyphed Obliterate in Blood even though Death Strike is the FU strike you use. You even specced into every DS improvement possible and STILL went to Oblit. Something tells me you don't know what you're doing on Blood. Worse yet, you didn't even grab Annihilation for your Oblit in one spec. So, what, you're going to re-apply your diseases every rune set even though you grabbed Epidemic? You're wasting talent points.

Fourth: when leveling you only have TWO Major Glyph slots. Your third is not available until 80. Never include three Glyphs in a leveling build.

It's a brand new breed of troll. Including a couple of non-horrible builds in with wacky troll statements like "I don't know the rotation" and "just for pvp"

They could rebuild them. Stronger, Faster. The Six Million Dollar Troll!
