I think maybe a combination of threat increase from frost presence and rune strike might be good. If they buff fp too much, then DKs become the best at aoe tanking by nature of just dropping D&D and sucking every mob in the vicinity to them!

Shoot it over! Contact details in About page.

You're right, Army is not for when you are facing a boss and he's giving you the smackdown but Anub'arak is one encounter when you can use it as a tank; magic-heavy being the key test.

For DPS, here's a list of its uses.

Yeah, I think the rune strike buff is needed. I never thought of a DK using AoD as a damage reducing cooldown before. I always figured that the zero avoidance while channeling would get you torn apart. But now that I think about it, it would seem viable for situational use against magic heavy encounters.

On an unrelated note, Elle, from Altadin, filled out an interesting healer survey, and then asked if anyone would be willing to put one together for tanks. I decided to put one together, and I’d like you to take a look at it, as a uniquely analytical blogger, I think your answers would give an interesting perspective.
