    - ABBREVIATIONS KEY:

    AoE = Area of ​​Effect
    AMS = Anti-Magic Shell
    APE = Attack Power Equivalence
    BB = Blood Boil
    BCB = Blood Caked Blade
    BP = Blood Presence
    IT = Icy Touch
    DK = Death Knight
    DC = Death Coil
    DnD = Death and Decay
    DPS = Damage per Second
    DRW = Dancing Rune Weapon
    FC = Rune of the Fallen Crusader
    GCD = Global Cooldown
    GoD = Glyph of Disease
    HB = Howling Blast
    HoW = Horn of Winter
    PS = Plague Strike
    RP = Runic Power
    UP = Unholy Presence
    FS = Frost Strike
    OBL = Obliterate
    KM = Killing Machine
    BS = Blood Strike

    1) Talents, glyphs, rotation:
    http://talent.mmo-champion.com/?deathknight # flcRUwZ8bGQJoG, IaS3e-, 11623

    1.1) Glyphs:
    - Glyph of Obliterate
    - Glyph of Frost Strike
    - Glyph of Disease

    1.2) ROTATION:

    Frost Death Knight-but has similar mechanics as Demonology warlocka.There is no specific rotation, it depends on the procs [Rime] and [Killing Machine].

    This is still an "opening" rotation:
    IT-PS-BS-OBL-BS-HoW (get here when Killing Machine will proknal)

    The goal is every KM you have enough RP, in order to be used as FS.Also it's important to remember that FS does more single target DMG instead of Howling Blast, so if you have proclaimed the 'Terror of KM + Rime, first and then run FS HB. HB is only used proclaimed the 'Terror of the Rime. During the time that you prokove RP or use them - unholy / frost and death runes you should be used to OBL.BS IS used only when blood runes to make a death, do not forget that every 18 second, you must renew DoTs with Pestilence.Unbreakable armor used on CD.

    Very useful addon for frost, and demonology warlock is PowerAuras.Addon-is seen quite easy monitoring your procs and will get optimal DPS by the spec.

    1.3) Use of AMS:

    The best way to uses the AMS is to collect fast burst of RP for FS until all runes are on CD.
    Example: DnD of Lady Deathwhisper (ICC) allows the use of 6-7 FS.

    2) Sockets Enchant & CONSUMABLES:

    2.1) PRIORITY OF stat:

    Hit> Expertise> Strength> Crit> Haste> Armp
    * Hit cap: 11% (~ 350 hit rating)
    * Expertise Cap: 23 (110 exp rating)

    2.2) Socket:
    Yellow slots where the bonus is +6 str or more to put 10 str 10 crit. The remaining slots and one 20 str 10 to all stats. Meta socket 21 agility +3% increased critical damage and 21 critical strike rating + 3% increased critical damage (the choice of this meta will have a blue socket).

    2.3) Enchant:
    * Head: 50 AP 20 Crit
    * Shoulders: 40 AP 15 Crit 120 AP and 15 Crit for Inscription
    * Back: 23 haste

    * Weapon: Rune of the Fallen Crusader

    2.4) CONSUMABLES:

    * Flask: Potion of Speed ​​(used 5 seconds before the pull so that can be re-used in the fight)

    Are you sure on the Crit>Haste for itemization on frost DKs? IMO I think haste is better cause you get more KM procs which ends up being 100% crit for FS the main dmg ability. And the only abilities your crit rating benefits would be blood strike, obliterate and HB ( if ever it procs. ) which upon recount would not outweigh frost strike. However the difference would be small this would be worth testing and comparing.
