This combo utilizes the 51 point Blood talent, Dancing Rune Weapon and Death rune mastery. Next patch, Death rune mastery will have a 100% chance to proc death runes from Death Strike.

Keep in mind that Dancing Rune Weapon procs its own diseases and mirrors your own attacks, so if you Plague Strike with it up, have a ghoul out, and Icy touch, you will have FOUR diseases up.

edit: since Icy Touch is technically a spell Dancing Rune Weapon probably won't copy it but added ghoul's disease since Raise dead will be free.

Shortened rotation w/ easier setup

Keep in mind that Dancing Rune Weapon procs its own diseases and mirrors your own attacks, so if you Icy touch and Plague Strike with it up, you will have FOUR diseases up.

Combine this with having 4 effective blood runes from Death rune mastery, you can get 12 Heart Strikes with 4 diseases up!

Here is the rotation:

00.0 Death grip 10 bbffuu
01.5 Icy Touch 20 bbfuu
03.0 Plague Strike 30 bbfu
04.5 Death Strike 40 bb
06.0 Heart Strike 50 b
07.5 Heart Strike 60

--.- big pause here, but big burst inc.

13.0 Death Strike 70
14.5 Heart Strike 80 d
16.0 Heart Strike 90 db
17.5 Heart Strike 100 db
20.0 Dancing Rune Weapon 0 db
21.5 Icy touch 10 db
23.0 Plague Strike 20 db
24.5 Heart Strike 30 dbdd
26.0 Heart Strike 40 ddd
27.5 Heart Strike 50 ddd
29.0 Heart Strike 60 dd
30.5 Heart Strike 70 d
32.0 Heart strike 80
33.5 Death coil 40
35.0 Death coil 0

I need to find a beta key so this doesn't look like a foreign language to me :(

I do not know if you can call it burst, since its over such an extended period.

The set up is easy enough, as long you do not get kited or ccd when you are about to start dropping heart strikes. It really looks more like a very high sustained dps rotation, since getting cc'd or kited when you start the heart strike spam really screws you over.

It certainly would be a lot of damage.

Yeah I guess burst is not really the word I should have used. Though I shortened the rotation and added in silence right before the main part of the damage :)

Found out yesterday my Strangulate hits for 1100-1250 dmg :o
