Hello,
DK is my main since WOTLK release. I used to be top 5 dps on ICC with full gear (9k-11k back then).
After WOTLK i struggled A LOT to understand frost dk and how his dps works. But let’s talk about Dragonflight. I’m currently 421 ilvl, when we’re clearing raids or mythics, I’m top dps, his AoE is amazing but when I do bosses (even on stupid lfr) I can’t pass 44k dps whilst I can see other classes passing 80k, even 100k through entire fight and geared MUCH worse than me. I feel so useless on high mythics. I tried all possible dragonflight rotations but still nothing. There was only once a situation when I meet frost dk on LFR who had huuuuuge dps even on bosses.
So… any advice? How to play DK frost on dragonflight? Or is it time to switch to unholy?
Your character sims way higher than that, so it’s AT LEAST a rotation issue.
I simmed you character vs 1 target and 5 targets, no buffs:
- 1 target → 55k
- 5 target → 164k
In raid you should be doing 15-20k more just from all the class buffs + Heroism, no consumables included.
Besides that, in this expansion you HAVE to change talents depending on the content, the “good for all” builds end up being “bad for all” instead, if you fight single target boss use single target talents.
Also just a small tip, go for Speed on the enchants not for Leech, you’ll get much more benefit from being able to dodge mechanics and keep more uptime on melee than just some passive healing that you don’t need because you have Death Strike.
