I am not a Blood DK, nor do I ever have a desire to be one. However I am really tired of the 30 different posts containing proposed builds for Blood/Frost/Unholy. So I am creating one post for everyone to stick their proposed builds into.
Samhein is a much more knowledgeble Blood DK so I will let him answer any blood questions here, and leave this to Blood DPS.
As of right now, in 3.2 patch the Unholy Blight Buff is still less damage than DRW but only marginally. Though BS was buffed it still has no place in a Blood DK's rotation. Honestly, I don't see any changes to a Blood's rotation. Please don't give us builds on Oblit that's just stupid or builds based on DW Blood.
Here are the 2 most common rebuild of Blood DPS DK's
51/0/20
- With the recent changes to BcB benefiting slow weapons this will be a very nice DPS increase to Blood 2H builds and will favor DRW even more as DRW has the ability to proc BcB independently. It will now be imperitive to put 3 points in BcB. Yes, I put 3 points in Bloodworms, but remember this is about pure personal dps output, and those 3 points can be spent anywhere.
50/0/21
- The Unholy Blight build. Though this build works nicely and makes for an easier rotation and allows for a DoT giving consistent damage. However this is definitely coming out shortly behind the DRW build.
Even with the buffs to BS I don't see BS ever working it's way into the rotation
IT/PS/DS/HS/HS/DC
HS/HS/HS/HS/DS/DC
DRW should be used as soon as you can.

Actually, Samhein, the recent nerf to UB is what is bringing DRW back into the discussion. Blood DK's were abusing the UB build and so it was nerfed. With the recent nerf to the overall damage of Unholy blight, DRW has become relevant again. The bonus of the unholy blight build was that even the random DC procs that fire out during blood dps were triggering it which made it the absolute dps build for 3.2. However it was too powerful and so was given a 10 percent total damage reduction, which brings DRW back into the equation and makes it the better dps option.

Yes, I am, but I am not sure if that completely eliminates the UB build, I haven't read up on it recently, but I hope it kills the discussion about it.
