blood is just bad for dps, really.
Wrong.
Blood = best single target DPS for DKs.
As for the OP, get very familiar with your rotation. Use IT first because of the PS glyph, but remember that there are Frost talents that bump up IT damage with diseases too.
Without Annihilation:
IT - PS - HS - HS - OB/DS - DC
IT - PS - HS - HS - HS - HS - OB/DS - DC
With Annihilation:
IT - PS - HS - HS - OB/DS - DC
HS - HS - HS - HS - OB/DS - DC
Hope this helps.

I've only played dk a bit as i've was lving it's herb/alk skill but so far i've been able to tell abit about each spec. First off unholy - aoe dps big numbers, blood - single target dps not as big numbers and self heals out the @$$, Frost - tanks with good dps. Now with that said just because unholy is aoe does not mean that 1 v 1 there dps is that much more then blood, they do more on avg thou. But IMO I think the best way to do the most dps is knowing your class, I think some people like specs that let you have great dps without putting the work into it.

A DK's spec is a very small percentage of how hard they dps. No matter what spec you are, you have to learn, and eventually, master that spec in order to dps hard. Whether your blood, unholy, or frost. If you as a player understand your spec to the point that you know every little nook and crany of your build, you'll be able to be as hard as anyone else. As I've stated before its,
Play Style^2+Gear+Experiance=Amount of DPS you put out. Spec shouldn't be considered when factoring your dps.

Actually, Blood is the best single target DPS tree for Death Knights. I'm going to assume that you have read everything from EJ's (Elitist Jerks) "Death Knight DPS Compendium". If you haven't, I would suggest reading it, as they are obviously more knowledgeable on the subject of Blood Spec than you are.
owned IMO

I have a quick question:
with my current Blood build I have 2 points left @ lvl 80 (not there yet, but y'know). I have Annihilation and was wondering if I should put them in Epidemic or Ravenous Dead. Difficult decision.
Not Difficult. Epidemic.
Annihilation is NOTHING without Epidemic.
