@Raulnor - 213 is correct Awareness wins out on all boss fights, and Virulence wins out on short fights or AoE fights with 3 or more.
ToT is a beautiful Main hand weapon.

Mercer we are talking about raiding here. You spec for raids not for heroics or grinding. Butchery is a waste of points unless you are grinding. It only works if YOU DELIVER THE KILLING BLOW. Bladed armor and toughness are tanking talents if that work, they are a complete waste of points. At best you will get 460 ap, that's not even close to the amount of dps gained from Necrosis and UBA.
You are missing alot of things, There is no set rotations, OB is your main big hitter every time it's up use it.
I can't believe I have to keep saying this. I will make it bold so anyone that reads will understand.
YOU DON'T HOLD KILLING MACHINE FOR RIME. YOU HOLD RIME FOR KILLING MACHINE.
If you use rime whenever it procs it's a waste of dps. It costs you a global cooldown which could be used for something stronger. From reading your post it seems you don't raid yet. Once you start raiding you will understand more about Necrosis and BcB, until then just trust me. Snap dps in Heroics is unimportant. You spec and gear for raids.

I was just looking at the PTR notes and noticed the change to Runestrike. At some point along the line it was recommended somewhere that we macro Runestrike with some of our attacks to maximize DPS but now I'm not even sure why in the first place.
After seeing that there will be a 17% increase in threat from this ability do you think it will better used for tank specs moving forward or was it ever really that useful for DPS in the first place since we shouldn't normally be in the position to have to dodge or parry much.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the mechanics of it.
Um, rune strike is strictly a tank strike. Only use it when tanking otherwise it's a loss of dps.

@mercer - it's hard to give up a spec you feel comfortable with, but trust me once you get rolling with 53/18 you will never want to go back to the other specs.

2.9 = EDGE OF THE TUSKARR

How much is the difference? Cause I already got Virulence, it's too late to go back, and I don't feel like wasting my emblems on a really small difference...
I would have both Raulnor. Awareness on boss fights absolutely dominates Virulence. On short trash fights Virulence is better. Basically the longer the fight the greater the benefit of Awareness. simply switch sigils for boss fights and for trash fights.

I am going to need to do an update to this thread. But will wait till the patch flips. There is alot of poor wording and information that has changed over the last few months that I need to work through.
Thank you to everyone who has helped me fix and correct errors, and added to what has to be the longest thread on DK's.
