As Taylin said above, its best to have razorice on MH and fallen crusader on OH.

This way you get the 2% damage as frost on your stronger hand. Fallen crusader then procs normally off your weaker hits. It’s not going to be a HUGE increase in damage, but it will be an increase.

@ Mentor & Frank: You should use 2 one hand weapons, beacause of the talent “Threat of Tharassian” both weapons hit the boss when you use plague strike, obliterates, blood strikes and frost strikes.
@ Masterkiller: I´ve tried the glyhp Icy Touch (normally I´ve played with disease)with IT it comes to 400 more dps, but with Diesease you make 500k more dmg (in the same time).

so far

Although a DK is not my main toon I did read and hear from other players the one handed frost spec is a lower dps than the two handed as the damage modifiers from things like Obliterate calculate on main hand only.

Some said it was broken some said thats how its meant to work. Going to do some more digging on this one, although when I changed my DK from one handers back to a two hander I did notice a positive DPS difference and I dumped howling blast in favour of putting a point some where else as I was fed up of the double CD (runes and time).

Hope my first post here doesn’t cause to much controversy as it’s a superb looking and reading site.

What weapon combination should we try to attain from 5 man dungeons, 10/25 raids? Right now I got a 2 hander from icc, should wait until I get 2 one handers before specing into frost?

Hey there dude i want just to say that razorice in mainhand and fallen crusader in offhand (after many hours off theroycraftig)are much better, and it makes more dmg

I did the same thing a while ago. Though my holy priest is the main toon I play I didn’t realize I had half of my dps gear unchanted but I did a bastard spec frost. I left out howling blast and mainly use obliterate/frost strike and I do about 1-2k more dps than my 2h unholy spec. Also I could be a noob when it comes to unholy.

Thanks for the comments. I think you are referring to the Glyph of Disease? I don’t use it either, I prefer the Glyph of Icy Touch rotation as a personal choice.
