On aoe pulls start as you mentioned: DnD, IT, PS, Pest. Then if you have 4 or more mobs you can use BB and DS to swap to death runes. But for packs of 3 (or even 4 for me) I swap targets and use HS.

Isn't HP one of two biggest contributors to EHP?
I guess it's about DKs' abilities that relies on our total hitpoints. The more HP we have, the bigger self healing we can do (because Rune Tap and Death Strike heals us for % of our total HP, not...
Looks like bug to me (that you cannot miss with DG). I agree that horrors aren't active right away after spawn, maybe that was the case when I "missed" with DG on them. I cannot recall any other...
@gramps, try looking for people on /2, say that you're fresh 80 tank and don't have great gear yet. People that will join you will be more patient and shouldn't pull mobs off you. You should find...
I've missed few times with DG while tanking Horrors on LK. I always grip them as soon as they spawn. I'm 100% sure I was in range for DG to work and it fired (cause it went on cooldown), but Horror...
Why is that?
What fights we're talking about? His gear is not that bad, he shouldn't be hard to keep up. I would suggest Phindo to get Pillars of the Might and some ring with armor (like Clutch of Fortification...
What WarTotem said, basically 2 EHP sets, one focused on more armor, 2nd focused on balance between armor and stamina. I only swap ring and trinket to change my set, as I don't have much gear...
I think that's the point of this macro, to have Vamp Blood always available. Dunno why it doesn't work, never tried this. In blood spec you usually have some blood or death rune available because of...
Ah, wasn't paying attention then :P But this whole section is for helping others, so what's the point in your post? ;)
I like Rune Tap a lot. After some patch for those 4 talent points you have 20% heal on 30sec CD. Including ICC buff and VB, this heal might be 20k or so and it's off GCD. On bosses like Sind or...
Instead of +10 all stats gem in your waist, put dodge+sta gem in your head (you will get fat +12sta bonus).
After being in 2 big guilds I can't agree on this :) It's not only you playing this game, there's another 9 (or 24) people in raid with you. They all want to have fun, kill bosses and they all pay...
Keep Speel Deflection then, but I strongly suggest to fill Subversion ;) Blood DK relies on crit chance to generate threat. Check out other abilities we have: Dark Conviction (+5% crit on...
Good direction if you want to maximize survivability in raids. I would only put 2 points from SoB to Hysteria and Dancing Rune Weapon. Hysteria for more raid utility, DRW for threat boost. DRW is...
"My healers agree with me" is not an argument. This topic is about gearing for progression, not for farming easy content. There are many factors in progression like learning, having worse gear than...
There are more than one possible gameplay while tanking in Blood, because they buffed IT threat. But HS is intended as main ability in Blood tree (why you even talent for it if you just spam IT?)....
Yes, it is normal. You have posted rotation for trash mobs, so I assume you're talking about tanking 5 mans mostly. DnD costs a lot and that's main reason of your blackout after initial rotation....
Yep, I'm talking only about heroic. Anyway, will check this next time.
OK, another question then (I think it suits this topic), not related to EHP. I was comparing some DKs armories and I have impression that US armory includes Frost Presence buff while EU armory...
Very funny. She didn't reset threat on our first kill some time ago, that's why we decided with my friend to taunt her before phase transition. On our next kills we didn't go deep into this, but just...
Now I'm confused as well :D I thought that PvP shoulder enchant is superior to Hodir's one in case when both are true:
* Your spec is blood where many abilities relies on your total HP: Death...
Are you sure about this? I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way and one tank have to taunt before phase transition. Maybe it has changed recently?
Jol, for ICC I would swap some enchants: +30 stamina pvp enchant on shoulders, +225 armor on cloak, +275hp on chest, +240 armor on gloves. But I'm assuming here that you don't have problems with...
