DK Talent Build

[techead]

Anyone found any decent talent builds on the net?

I had a look around and there are a few, but nothing substantial...

Also, anyone have any comments on their DK? Are you enjoying it? What are your thoughts?

My DK is my main. I switched over from playing a Shadow Priest/Hunter/Rogue/Warrior/Druid/Shaman during BC (all of them raided to varying degrees)
I really love the class. Just like any class we have our advantages and disadvantages but it's a really great class for people who like a bit of complexity in their gameplay.

I'm a Frost spec Tank but given the forthcoming changes I might switch to Blood depending on how the spec performs in Raids.

I leveled with a Blood/Unholy hybrid spec until 80 without any trouble at all.

I'd recommend the following Elitist Jerks topics around DK DPS and Tanking:

The one fact that seems very clear at this point is that while there are several key Talents in each tree, how you combine them to form your spec of choice is very much up in the air.
I think a large part of this is because of how the class plays.
If you do everything correctly you can do amazing things with a sub-optimal spec because it works for you but you can just as easily scrub out tremendously while using a spec considered to be perfect.
