Hey guys, this was pretty much my second raid as a UH DK, played a bit of blood before. Using the NAG addon/wa, trying to tweak stuff here and there but even so, my parses seem a bit "green-ish" 🙂 Also, for this run, I still had tanking shoulders instead of dps ones, got 372 dps ones for the next one.
Here are the logs: https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/reports/ywxRdQ4qCZhMaz9N#boss=-2&difficulty=0&wipes=2&type=damage-done
I am Diô. Any advice, tips, info for me, please?

Gonna look at it today

Gear - dunno if you are aliance with hit buff from draenei, but just a reminder that logs shows lower hit (878). Not sure about the helm, if it is really better than t11 normal helm or goggles from engineering. You are missing socket on belt and also only socket onto bonuses if it means you dont lose any STR + missing nitro boosts on belt. Replace haste enchant on gloves with str ones (+35 or +50)
Atramedes - double IT in opener is bad, also first blood rune spent was almost at 00:08 (so you lost like half of the blood rune refresh here). If the rune predictor is correct, then you also used festering strike with double death runes (so you lost 2 usages of SS, which with your avg dmg done by those spells are - 42k by double SS vs 19.6k by FS)
Unholy frenzy was used really early, and also it seems that you wanted to use it with gary - since gary is capped at 33% haste (which is achieved easily even with prebis items), then it does nothing for gary.
ERW used at this point is really waste, since you prolly have 1 unholy rune left + full bar of RP. Also it refreshed all your runes, and as you can see from the rune predictor, you used first unholy spender 5 seconds later (so unholy with UF and BL up, you lost like 1 entire UH rune), first blood spender was used after like 8 seconds, and first blood rune was used after like 15 seconds (so aprox 2.5 frost rune was lost)
You casted outbreak + gary really early (when FC was also not popped up) -> the idea for the optimal opener is - use gary (and outbreak) when you have most possible str/ap buffs and they have like 2-3 secs before they end, and in the meantime you want to get as many SI stacks as possible without dropping those buffs for gary/outbreak
Another thing is losing snapshotted diseases at 00:55 - that indicates, that you somehow mismanaged your runes or you didnt used enough runes => less FS
really low CPM for when atramedes was up - you can easily refresh BP before Atramedes goes up, and spam IT+DC to dmg him (+ prepare SI stacks to use DT when he lands) + HoW and DnD for free RP. Also the PS after outbreak is really waste
DT uptime - really low - first DT was at 00:21 - 00:51, and you almost had RPs for 3DCs, but for strange reasons you didnt used spells at all. Keep in mind, that DT is a big boost for your ghoul (+60% dmg up for your ghoul + claw cleaves), so the more you prolong it, the more dmg you lose. Also if there are mechanics like atramedes airborne phase, and you cast DT 15seconds before it, you effectively lose half of the duration of it -> so you also need to plan when to use it and when it is better to spend that unholy/death rune on instant dmg spell
So 2nd DT had only half of effective usage, and 3rd one (because you didnt prepared any stack at all during airborne phase), was used at 2:36 (and also pretty delayed by using SS instead of DT)
It seems that your ghoul is using gnaw -> untoggle it, since it does less dmg per resource spent
DnD uptime was okay-ish, 0 AMS used - which is also pretty huge dps loss, since you can use it for speeding up DT recast or speeding up your opener + is also a huge defensive cd. SS/FS ratio could be a little bit better, but thats due to my notes above
Chimaeron - opener looks almost same as on Atramedes. Outbreak was used when you didnt had any of your trinkets. ERW usage was not that bad as on Atra, but you still lost a pretty decent time on rune refresh
This IT+PS was unnecessary, since you had outbreak almost up. The one situation where it can be okay-ish to do this situation, was if you want to have your trinkets snapshotted into diseases by using outbreak (which at this point is impossible, since trinkets have like 1:40 cd)
DnD uptime is okay, DT uptime is pretty low - it seems that you are just forgetting to reapply DT, since you pool RP for when DT ends
Only 1 usage of AMS, SS/FS ratio is okay
Again, gnaw
No AMZ for feud, that can also helps (from defensive perspective)
@river silo Your biggest problem (as I can see from those 2 bosses) are DT uptime + its timing, using gary & outbreak when you still have time to build SI stacks before buffs drops and really low usage of AMS. AMS is a big offensive CD if used at the right time - it means you will have more DT uptime + more DCs -> higher chance for RC to proc => faster rune regen
Also try to focus on having your runes always in refresh state (and not capped), so that each of rune is always regenerating. If you do that, you will have more runes to use, especially if you manage to sometimes weave DC for the RC proc
