M+ BDK rotation link?

Hey, just need a rotation/priority for BDK meta, no raiding, just m+.
Looking for something on old Elitist Jerks level. No Icy Veins misinfo.
So far only trolly responses in DK discord.
If someone could just link a source; respectfully, not your understanding, or your coles notes. Just a link to a source. If it has to be a youtube vid, then please not just the youtuber’s understanding, or youtuber’s coles notes. Thank you.

Not sure if this is a bug, but nobody seems to have a link to m+ BDK rotation for 9.2.

Does anyone find it weird that nobody has a link to meta m+ BDK rotation in the 10hrs this thread’s been up? Almost like one does not exist publicly?
I know there are plenty of players who would help if they could.

Have you tried google?

both Icy Veins and WoWhead have rotation guides. Wowhead even basis it on covenant, talents, tier status, etc.

they are inaccurate. confirmed in BDK forums mandl hasn’t updated the calc. One of them says it’s the same as raiding rotation, which it’s not. Blooddrinker for example.
Thank you thank you though.

May want to check your information first hand:

https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/blood-death-knight-pve-tank-mythic-plus-tips

Does not have Blooddrinker as an option

Man Grizzle, I came here to get away from you! :wink:

But probably because once you get tier set, no one uses blooddrinker.

No reason to assume I haven’t looked at that. I’ve referenced it twice before your comment. I said “one of them says blooddrinker”, both iv and wowhead are inaccurate though. And I even said “No Icy Veins misinfo”.

That page is not close to meta.
Thank you though, have a good day.

It also mentions that “if talented” - Blooddrinker is set for Single Target. If you look specifically at the M+ page, it tells you not to take Blooddrinker :slight_smile:

The rotation doesn’t really change. No Blooddrinker, no Blooddrinker in rotation :slight_smile: minimum changing

When you claim it says blooddrinker and my link directly references that it does not, gives me plenty of reason to assume otherwise.

Twice now I’ve mentioned that between iv and wowhead one of them said blooddrinker. So I guess it was wowhead. Thank you again.

I am actually looking for, as I stated in OP, an accurate meta rotation for m+ BDK. Icy Veins is not that. Thank you yet again, but if you don’t have what I am looking for, please move on.

Maybe you should write up then if you know what’s meta? I’d love to learn what is meta opening.

I know what I do, it seems to work, and I can maintain a pretty good DRW uptime with it. But its probably not Meta either.

There is no set rotation.

You keep your shield stacks high enough for ossuary. You pool RP for survival. You keep 3 runes on CD. If you aren’t taking much damage, you swap to a higher damage profile on your abilities.

Death strike is heavily dependent on your damage intake, it’s not rotational it’s reactionary. There are weak auras for tracking it so you get better use out of your RP.

Kyrian 4pc in high keys can keep insane uptime on DRW and the spec becomes heavily global locked and requires spamming heart strike and using some different talents. If you aren’t pushing above 20s then it doesn’t matter. Don’t look up the highest dk profiles because they are stated, covenant, and talented for a much different playstyle than the class requires until the highest levels.

Dnd spd heart strike cleave for threat and RP, use CDs on pulls, and maintain stacks and RP when you go into the next pull so you are tankier in the first few minutes. 4 pc heavily incentivizes heart strike during DRw windows.

mandl has said to ignore ossuary during drw.

Not really looking for a discussion on your understanding of the basics, just a link to meta m+ BDK rotation.

Your request is quite difficult to answer. Go google and determine what satisfies the information you’re looking for. Asking others for a recommendations while simultaneously being over specific in your request is going to lead to people just shaking their head and moving on. Probably what’s happening here.

Tanks have a priority system, and it’s quite fundamental. Execution of that system is unique and will change based on a bunch of different factors happening in real time during a key.

The best place to get pointers is to go watch streamers and ask them questions.

Just lookin’ for a link brother.
With just that ask, we’ve shown conflicting information in the few comments here alone, and still no link. Sheds light.

Could be that the specific person from Elitist Jerks you’re looking to garner information from has not set out their very own guide and thus no link exists?

That is more or less what I imagine. I know the top players keep their strats, tactics, WAs, etc all very close to their chest. This isn’t 2008, and everyone wants to keep their clubs exclusive.

Look at Warcraft logs for some of the higher keys run and see if you can make notes on ability usage weights for the more successful dks. You can also look at uptime statistics for CDs and buffs during the dungeon.

You’re asking for rotation but I think the best anyone can offer is a priority?

Simming will at least provide you with an damage rotation. Assess to figure out where downtime exists and that’s where you weave in survival tools as available.

I know man, ty ty.
Just looking for a link to BDK meta m+ rotation/priority guide.

Sorry just trying to help.

Guess you may be the one to write it up if you can’t find anything XD.

Your key levels aren’t that far off from pushing higher end keys, I can tell you know the class. Take a crack at it if no one comes up with anything. I can’t find what you’ve described either, and I don’t know how to pull optimally in some of the dungeons to properly maintain my DRW like the MDI guys are. routing is a huge component to this as well.
