Unholy based with some Frost:

Same here; I really don't have any DK experience but I'll throw a build that looks good to me Razz

Came up with this

I won't even try to make a proper frost build as I tried it before and..... I ended up taking about every talent there is lol! So much goodie yum yum PEW PEW talents there.

EDIT: Actually, probably more often than not you crit at least once in 30 seconds right? That would make this build pretty nice because bloody vengeance would pretty much be on all the time and +9% physical damage is not a small amount.

Thanks lads Smile Some nice build in there Smile

I'm wondering why you both have picked up Dancing Rune Weapon in Blood tree in your builds - it has 3min cd and takes 50 runic energy (half of my bar) to cast it. It lasts for 10s only (I doubt there'll be any more runic power left to increase duration Razz). Now - I generate runic power where fighting and need it for most of my abilities so I usually run low on it (there's no runic power at the start - same as with warrior's rage). So to stack up and use 50 runic power I need few good hits on my target. On the top of this it will copy my attacks so I can not be kited to use it effectively as I have to land my weapon on enemy to allow runic weapon to copy it. I was a bit sceptic about it. It costs a lot of runic energy and lasts for 10s only copying my attacks if I'm not kited. I understand that on the other hand I might put chains of ice on someone (to decrease movement speed) and keep at him/her and if I manage to crit once or twice when my rune weapon is up it might end fight very quickly.

Another question is - when it copies my attack does it copy damage too? What I mean by this is if I crit with my weapon will my dancing rune weapon crit too? Or just copy same attack with random damage output?

Just wanted to know what are your thoughts on this talent Smile I haven't picked it up yet but I might try it out and see how it goes Smile 3min cd means that it can be used once in a fight and when we duell it might be once every second or third fight depending on the duration Smile

On the mixed frost trees - I think Lichborne might be very usefull in pvp. Going too deep in this tree after Lichborne might not be that good as blood specced DK won't use too much frost spells so damage increase on them might not help too much Smile

I'm still not 100% sure which is the right way to go Razz I might just try few builds and see how it goes Smile

Let me know lads what you think about this dancing rune weapon as I'm still not sure if it's worth it Smile
