mcbone 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2013 Hello all! Love this site but first time post so thanks in advance! I've read through the guide but there isn't a strong recommendation for Blood DK professions. Can someone provide some insight? Was thinking of going with blacksmithing and engineering but can be easily swayed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm 426 Report post Posted December 11, 2013 Jewel Crafting and Blacksmithing are both very versatile since you essentially get 2 more gems of your chosing from either one. This can be used for 480 Stam or 640 Mastery/Dodge/Parry. Engineering can situationally be the best because of the 1900ish dodge cooldown you get from it. although this won't contribute to riposte like blacksmithing or jewel crafting would. Leather Working, it's a weird choice, but you can get 750 stam from it. Mining and enchanting both get you 480 Stam. I'm a BS/Enchanter on my DK, mostly because I make a lot of gold from DE'ing my normal raid set whenever I start working on heroic gear. but the best choice is probably either BS/Eng, or BS/Jewel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dofri 4 Report post Posted December 15, 2013 Ill take another angle than most here. Id higly reccommend engineering simply because i feel one of our main weakness is mobility and you get an extra 'oh shit' speed boost from there. Situational, sure, but really really good when you need it. The dodge from gloves is more of a bonus for me hehe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceraius 34 Report post Posted December 16, 2013 I agree, mobility is a tank DKs greatest weakness at the moment. However, considering Engineering and the Nitro Boosts keep in mind those can backfire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
