Well first off you're not making any use of having reaping using that rotation, also, Unholy blight should be kept up at all times, its damage is greater than a DC crit for its cost, the common single target UH dps rotation looks more like this:
IT/PS - SS - BSx2 - UB
SSx3 - Rune dump
Your rotation for "group confrontations" (I like that ^_^) looks ok.
Your build is questionable for a 12/0/59 build, you really really really want to get Gargoyle :P it's worth more than Dirge (and perhaps GF > 1 point in Dirge, if you can make use of it).
Your gear:
First off, you're awfully flooded with hit, the cap is at 8% for melee specials and 2-h auto attacks so you should really try to scale some off
Secondly, always socket for Strength rather than +ap, this is because strength scales with BoK and various str increasing talents (such as Rav. dead).
Thirdly, Haste is the least valuable stat for a dps DK, and you shouldn't try to match socket bonuses undless it's an offensive bonus (and it's worth it)
And finally: Do not enchant +agi on your gloves, enchant +AP or +expertise (since you're flooded with hit and low on expertise) and enchant your bracers whilse you're at it.
Thanks all for now I guess ;p feel free to hurl more questions this way :)

UB outweighs DC only if you have ten to fifteen seconds to be near that target for it to tick. This is not to say that it should be ignored. Use UB. Love UB.
Your first rotation should be PS IT SS BS BS BT+GF UB DC assuming you do not GF+UB while running in to the boss (I don't know why you would not, but hey).
Assuming you do GF+UB on the way in (which you should because it saves two GCDs later), first rotation should be PS IT SS BS BS DC DC.
EDIT: WHY don't you have Gargoyle? Holy hell, go respec. Drop a point from Necrosis and get it since Necrosis was nerfed. In fact, drop 3 more from Nec and get IUP and GF.

If you use GF timed with Blood tap right after you've used BSx2 then it doesn't mess up your rotation at all.
Gargoyle is (I reckon) the best dps CD a Dk could have, it's ideal for burst moments, really.
Also one SS should hit harder than BSx2, and then you've got another 25% chance to refresh your diseases :> Dont worry too much about standing there having nothing to press for 1-3 seconds, UH dps is fairly GCD friendly.
Edit: Take a look at my comments about your gear, hint hintelihint hint :P

Tbh the Pyrite infuser is not nearly as good as Mirror of Truth, if you're already hit capped (and ofc DMC: greatness is BiS still :>)
So if you have some spare Emblems lying around, go nuts.

It was nerfed. It used to double-dip from EP and something else, meaning it would get the 13% benefit both before and after it was calculated.
Now, it does not benefit at all from other talents: it is a flat talent that is only affected by your weapon damage. Black Ice, EP, etc. do NOT affect it. Necrosis stands all by itself. It's still a good talent: it's just not as amazingly mandatory as it used to be.
