Dots09 Frost Death Knight 11.0.5 The War Within

which paladin GSE are you using? i’m trying to set one up for myself but there are so many on this site and want to choose the best one.

I had a GSE sequence for paladin but it’s a bit hard to upkeep at the moment so it’s out dated, I currently manually play prot paladin

Hi, I’m new to this and a little confused. I’ve been using a different Ret Pally sequence on my Pally, and that one has single target and AoE keybinds. It’s been working great.

For this sequence, there only seems to be one keybind? And it’s tied to the talent spec, so I wanted to try the AoE DW Deathbringer Obliterate one, but it’s all just one keybind.

Like, yeah I can bind the ST sequence as well but that’s a different talent spec though?

Thank for these, i think they’ve been working great. However i see on details the obliterate is like 3rd in damage. Is this by design? I keep seeing extra runes waiting to be spent and its parsing at less than 20%, I am using the ST and AOE with deathbringer

I believe ret can have AOE and ST sequences, mainly because your AOE is divine storm, which is not a talent difference just a spell difference, meaning you can use AOE and ST in one Sequence.

Frost DK, however, has some Key differences/talents, such as frostwyrm’s fury being used in AOE but not ST, and it’s a specific talent choice meaning single target would not use this talent

If the only difference were passive talents or talents at least that are not used/not important then yes I could do 1 sequence with AOE and ST built-in

For now, you would need 2 sequences and 2 different talent setups, with 1 keybind.

and set each sequence to use based on your talent setup

Numbers will vary between users and gear. As far as %, it’s hard to say, but it won’t beat your SIMC value or manual use by someone with the same gear/knowledge of Frost DK. I am testing it now and so far the current sequence is performing the best out of tests.

Hey there I am using your
AOE_DW_Deathbringer_Obli"
and enjoying it but I was wondering if I need to add the st macro as well when i get into st situations like bosses ect? Also how do i remove abom limb from the sequence? Thankyou.

I want to give really BIG props to Dots here. Your macros are awesome, for all classes, you respond as often as you can to questions and support, and your comments always feel thought out and sincere. Thanks for all that you do! You are a pillar (of frost) for the community. Wish you all the best :slight_smile:

Many thanks for the review. I’ve got a lot going on with my main mythic raid and keeping up with work, so I will try to get down to reviewing the sequences I have and adding more when I can.

Im just confuse about all that builds… :smiley:

Im looking for a build to frost. (FOCUS on m+ 7+keys) - and some little raid build too.
What should i take of all that beautyful macros ?

Yea Frost Dk has quite a lot of build variance

For Aoe/mythic+ - AOE_DW_Deathbringer_Obli or AOE_DW_Riders_Obliterate
For Single target - ST_DW_Deathbringer or ST_DW_Riders_Obliterate

since you are planning some keys I would use the Deathbringer sequence as this seems to be the most damage, while riders is fun it seems to fall quite behind Deathbringer

Do keep in mind this is not the best build right now. Most, if not all, FDKs run breath build in mythic+, so you may not be satisfied with this sequence numbers-wise. The mythic+ breath build is not GSE-friendly.

I am running the AOE_DW_Deathbringer_Obli binded to my 1 key and it works very well. I am wondering if I bind the ST_DW_Deathbringer to my 2 key and keep the talents the same as teh AOE_DW_Deathbringer_Obli . Can i just switch buttons between aoe situations, and boss fights without swapping talents?

I have tried a lot of macro gse sequences here for this DK and I am having the best success with yours. I even did the first 3 wings in LFR and I have sub par gear 587 ilvl and was between 7th and 14th most of the raid. Some of my gear is still 544 ilvl too so props on your work here. I was lucky to get half the dps out of almost all the other builds, and macros I tried

Here is my parse, WoWAnalyzer

Does it look right to you? Im loosing half of killing machine procs.

Numbers will vary between characters, but yea I don’t like missing all those Killing machine procs I can check into the sequence after raid.

Keep me updated, when its remakered :stuck_out_tongue:

and thank you, i’ll give your macros a try :slight_smile:

Hi Dots09, I am a returning player that has always been Frost DW. I have become disabled so I have had to come up with alternate ways to play. I found GSE one day and I love it but my dps is surely lacking. I see by the posts that most ppl have macro’d these to keys. I have mine keybound to my mouse wheel so I can roll the wheel to execute the macro. My question, is this an issue for executing these macros. I’m using Oak’s Frost Macro but it seems like I’m only doing about 1/2 the dps I should be. Would binding it to a key be better? I’m currently lvl 80, ilvl 600 with 593 and 587 weapons using masterfrost riders spec. I do t8 Delves and just started doing low level mythic+. I guess I’m mainly asking if binding to my mousewheel is ok or should I go to a key. Sry for such a long post. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Mousewheel does work as well as mashing a key. You can get a mouse with an auto click macro and set it to 100 ms. Its against TOS but I think blizzard doesnt ban unless you make it a problem.

Thank you for the response. I was hoping that was the case. Getting rdy to try the macros today. I’ll share how it goes.

Holy cow, Dots! This macro is straight fire! Even my poorly geared DK is rocking big numbers - thanks for this!

Do you have a reliable deathbringer breath build? or is it too hard to maintain >?
