@Zach G. Uuhhh dude you need that talent because the whole point is that you need the death runes so you can cast Obliterate as often as possible!!

Also an excelent macro is this

#showtooltip Death strike
\cast death strike
\cast Raise Goul
\cast Death Pact

Or if u r blood

#showtooltip Death Strike
\cast Vampiric Blood
\cast Death Strike
\cast Blood Tap
\cast Raise Goul
\cast Death Pact

In my oppinion the macro is great. @Frosted flakes. Just so you know this macro uses obliterate and frost strike enough that it uses the proc every time so u don’t loose any dps because of that. I also belive that if you replace icy touch at the beggining with howling blast and have the glyph for howling blast you will maximize the use of this macro

i use this

#showtooltip
/castsequence [button:1] reset=6/combat Chains of Ice, Plague Strike, Frost Strike, Blood Strike, Blood Strike, Howling Blast, Frost Strike, Obliterate, Frost Strike, Howling Blast, Obliterate, Frost Strike
/cast !Rune Strike

replaced the first Icy Touch with Chains of Ice for pvp

A talent not recommended for this setup is blood of the north, as it messes up the rune system that this macro is setup for (the blood runes become death runes, causing problems)

Actually, maybe stick it at the end of the rotation

Another useful spell to put in there is empower rune weapon (assuming it’s not on cd) because it will automatically grant 25 runic power, making sure you get to use that first frost strike, and with a little runic power left over, you should have enough runic power by the time you get to the next frost strike. Also, learning the butchery talent may also be a good idea as well.

Bad idea to use a fixed rotation for DK dps. Procs, RND, and cds reward the DK that picks the best power at the right time.

Sure this cast sequence will give you dps. But you’ll be doing less than your maximum potential by using a fixed rotation.
