About This File
Welcome to my Frost Death Knight fight class for World of Warcraft Legion 7.2.
Currently, the only competitive talent build uses Breath of Sindragosa as your tier 7 talent. This build is fairly strict, as summarized below.
Level 56: Murderous Efficiency
Level 57: Horn of Winter / Freezing Fog
Level 58: Hungering Rune Weapon
Level 60: irrelevant
Level 75: irrelevant
Level 90: Gathering Storm
Level 100: Breath of Sindragosa
This fight class is optimized for the Breath Of Sindragosa build, and follows the talents and spell priorities as suggested by Icy Veins.
The spell priority is as follows:
Single and Multiple Target Rotation
This rotation assumes you are using Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa as your Tier 7 talent, as well as Murderous Efficiency Icon Murderous Efficiency, Horn of Winter Icon Horn of Winter, Hungering Rune Weapon Icon Hungering Rune Weapon, and Gathering Storm Icon Gathering Storm.
The rotation is essentially a cycle of preparing to cast Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa, and then what you do while it is active.
When Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa is not active, you should do the following.
Use Remorseless Winter Icon Remorseless Winter.
Use Howling Blast Icon Howling Blast to apply Frost Fever Icon Frost Fever and then begin building Runic Power.
The goal here is to get at least 70 Runic Power with two Runes, with two more Runes coming off cooldown soon, before casting Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa.
Use Frost Strike Icon Frost Strike if you have 80+ Runic Power (or 70+ if you have 3/3 in Icon Over-Powered).
Use Howling Blast Icon Howling Blast if you have a Rime Icon Rime proc.
Use Obliterate Icon Obliterate.
Use Frost Strike Icon Frost Strike if Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa has 15+ seconds left on its cooldown.
Use Horn of Winter Icon Horn of Winter if Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa has 10+ seconds left on its cooldown.
When the above conditions for casting Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa are met (70+ Runic Power an 2 charged Runes), do the following:
Use Remorseless Winter Icon Remorseless Winter.
Cast Pillar of Frost Icon Pillar of Frost + Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa.
Use Howling Blast Icon Howling Blast if you have a Rime Icon Rime proc AND Breath of Sindragosa Icon Breath of Sindragosa will not drop as a result (you must be at around 30 Runic Power) AND Hungering Rune Weapon Icon Hungering Rune Weapon is not active.
Use Obliterate Icon Obliterate if you will not cap Runic Power.
Use Horn of Winter Icon Horn of Winter if you will not cap Runic Power and if Hungering Rune Weapon Icon Hungering Rune Weapon is not active.
Use Hungering Rune Weapon Icon Hungering Rune Weapon if you have less than or 30 Runic Power.
2. Cooldown Usage
As a Frost Death Knight, you have 2 DPS cooldowns. In addition to this, you gain another cooldown from your Artifact weapon. Below, we explain how they are best used.
Pillar of Frost Icon Pillar of Frost should be used on cooldown, stacking it with potions or any on-use trinkets you have. Alternatively, you can save it for moments when you need increased damage.
Empower Rune Weapon Icon Empower Rune Weapon should be used as many times as possible throughout the encounter, making sure not to waste any of the resources it provides you with.
Icon Sindragosa's Fury should be used as many times as possible throughout an encounter. Ideally, it should be used against multiple targets (and it is worth saving for this purpose), but it can also be used against a single target.
