| This is not just for DKs but everyone. What is your spec and why do you like it?
I know there are places that say this spec is best for this reason but I also know we are people and we do what ever the **** we want to.
Please dont turn this into spec bashing. In fact if you have a question to the person who placed the spec PM them or something. Lets just keep this nice and neat.
And if you roll two specs tell us what spec you use as your main spec and the why you chose your second spec.
Also put in your rotation and glyphs if they are necessary for the spec.
l8r,

| Since I started this might as well particiapate. My Spec is Frost 17/51/3My rotation is HB BS BS OB RS Dump (Then) OB OB OB RS Dump AoE DD HB I chose this class because I get high DPS numbers in trash as well as boss fights. I find the rotation a little less complicated than Unholy. I can tank in this spec with DD and HB and can keep agro on high trash pulls. You will need the HB glyph to make this all work well. l8r, | |

| Sure, I'll go. Since I'm not in a position to raid, I'm basically specced all out cat dps for world quest objectives. Currently its 0/55/16This picture explains cat dps rotations to the best of the theorycrafters ' current ablility. | |

| This is a good way to explain and maybe educate some people about your (my) specs. PvE Mutilate: 51/13/7Mutilate played well in PvE has the potential to top the charts. With the change to how HfB works, I always try and open with Garrote. So my sequence would be: Garrote, HfB, SnD, Mut, Envenom, Mut, MUt, Rupture, etc...PvP Mutilate: 41/5/25Mutilate PvP is definitely the way to go right now if you're looking for a consistent point building talent. And once you've popped your life saving CDs, you've got more on the way with Preparation. The sequence would be something like this: Cheap Shot, MutX2, Kidney Shot, MutX2, Cold Blood, Evisc., etc... | |

| I play a DK and I play 0/10/61 I picked it because spamming heart strike's boring. And it's OP. | |

| I began as a marksman, and refuse to be defiled by the other specs XD. In all actuality, I plan on running a dual in BM for soloing instances.
My Spec is MM 11/5/7.
I spec'd marksman because I like doing high dps. There was just something about having a gun, being trained as a sniper, and learning "Kill Shot" that had great appeal to me. Never had a problem keeping up with the other specs througout the expansions.
Most recently, I've been testing the theorycrafting behind AP vs Agil for MM. So far all the numbers and opinions are wrong. After spending 4 hours on two identical hunters on the ptr, I have actually gained 25 dps by replacing all my AP gems with Agil ones and will be testing the enchants next. Ahhh fun, fun. | |

| Druid tank - Because my old guild needed a tank and my new guild needed a tank.
Tree - Cause I picked a druid to heal basically
MM Hunter - Supposedly the best DPS spec (Right now it's even with Survival)
Surv Hunter - My favorite DPS spec and also a good PvP Spec.
BM Hunter - Used for leveling, but I took it off.
That's my specs and why right now, if I get bored with either class in endgame, I'm gonna level a DK next (Frost and Unholy) | |

| I have warrior at level 28, but I don't play him, I don't really see the need in getting a melee dps or tank up when I have a druid at 80 already in almost full T7 gear. But hunters rock which is why I leveled him. | |

| My spec on Dycekt is is 15/51/5 which is Combat and I do sword spec. Why sword spec well at this time not doing many hard modes I can't get the fist weapon or daggers I want for Combat fist spec so my next option is sword spec which I love anyways just because of the extra swing to the sword spec. Also I'm combat because i PWN the meters. I currently pull off 6k dps and normally over 30m damage done at the end of each raid night. | |

| Fun thread, i have many toons from playing for several years and have tried every spec/class combo (but not every race/class/spec combo, that's just rediculous). I'll keep it short and fun :D
80 Priest - Main: Disc - Love to heal, Holy is boring (although they are improving it in that aspect) Off: Shadow - For soloing/if grp needs dps, wish shadow was as good as it looks
80 Lock - Destro Fire - Love the dps/face melt ... Hate the agro...
80 Rogue - Mute - Most fun spec imo, combat/sub are too spammy for me.
78 Druid - Main: Feral - Tank for groups, can dps if needed, cat for soloing Off: Resto - Enjoy Priest healing more but love that i can fill any spot as a Druid
77 Shaman - Main: Elemental - I enjoy it more than Enh. and eiser to gear my offset for resto Off: Rsto - I like to be usefull
74 Mage - Arcane - I generally respec every time i start playing him again;I like all 3 specs. Waiting to get FFB to try it...damn i'm a respecaholic...
74 Warrior -Main: Arms - I just like the feel of Arms more than fury Off: Prot - just because i think every class that can tank/heal should do it
74 DK - Blood dps/tank - The best spec to do it all imo. Although i will probably be frost or unholy at 80 (they're more fun)
73 Pally - Main: Ret - Ret is just OP... nuf said Off: Prot - Holy is just boring 1,1,1,1, ...big heal 2...1,1,1,1, same reason i dont like holy priest.
73 Hunter - BM - I like Mark/Surv more but not enough +int gear while leveling (and i like the "I WIN" macros for BM | |

| just got enough defense to be capped and have duel wield on my death knight tanking...man what fun. pulled around 1900-2k tankin h toc last night.
i dont raid anymore so my gear is strictly badges and heroics, so nothing great of course lol. but i use the red sword of courage and the peacekeeper blade as weapons. was using the titansteel destoyer fooooorever, for dps and tank, and got so sick of having to change the runes.
i was inspected yesterday in dalaran after i got everything in order, capped, enchanted and ready to rock. only 30461 hp as well, again just emblem and heroic gears, plus im not a sorry tank that only gems for stam, i always go avoidance...and sure enough, another DK..."dude, u cant tank duel wield yet, not til pathc, ten bucks says u are not even capped"
....on a side note, why say anything at all? why not just move on and let people do what they want...anyways lol.
then he tells me to go change my spec and grab a 2 hander, cause i will have more hp..funny, when i had the stoneskin gargoyle rune on and my 2 hander i had 31004 hp...WOW..what a big difference..and ill gladly take the parry and dodge + expertise over the hit rating on the destroyer anyday..this is all a matter a preference of course, to me i want my dk to duel wield, simple as that.
moving on, the dk and i agreed to disagree...then of cours ei almost started to believe the guy, gettin worried over threat and such from the burst damage only a 2 hander can have...so i ran H hos, H toc..2 formidible challenges in terms of heroics anyway...and sure enough i had 0 issues on threat and it almost seems as if the dps jumped here and there.
and the best part is...did not go with sword breaking for the runes, eventhough that should be the case 4% parry overall should really be what u want...but i wanted to have fun, fallen crusader on both swords!! man what fun, 15% strength proc times 2..just gorgeous.
on a side note, im an engineer/JC...such a fun combo, that alone makes that toon so damn much fun to play....and no i did not go with the 880 armor to gloves, booooring lol, no no +340 haste use to gloves every min for 12 secs...that shit is OP. | |

| My hunter is Surv spec 6/14/51 I spec it that way for one it does high dps since my arp isn't the greatest and two it lets my pet do more dps instead of me doing it all. I do it so i feel more like a hunter and less like a rifleman.
My Shaman is Resto 0/16/55 Mainly cause thats what the highest rated resto spec on talentchic.com and i wanted to healer.
My Warrior is Fury 18/53/0 Because i have still have not givin up on fury. | |

| I really love being enhancement on my shaman so I can use ghost wolves and shamanistic rage and be some what invincible! Invincible, that is, if I get the surprise on someone and that person isn't a DK, Subtlety Rogue, any Caster DPS, or someone better than me, which is quite a large group of people. | |

| I'm currently spec'd Disc on my priest. It's a little different from your standard reactive healing, and it keeps me on my toes | |
