General Rotation Notes
Sometimes, if you are unable to follow the rotation closely, certain abilities will just not be suggested in the queue. This is probably because preconditions to establish optimal use of the ability were not met.

(It is possible to exclude abilities from a rotation, and yet still display their CD/availability.)

Notes Specific to the Frost Deathknight Module
Optimising your actions for 'best practice' rune management based upon your Tier 5 talents is very difficult to master. This module takes care of this for you and is quite a step up from basic rune availability management. Consult an end game DK Raiders website for details.

Deathknights can have considerable rotation downtime. If you get the 'Auto Attack' icon then look down the queue. Perhaps an early disease refresh or a Horn of Winter or a less optimised D&D/FS/Oblit? Or even use the GCD to quickly move. You should always be doing something. In a multi-target fight you will of course be spreading diseases during any rotation lulls.

The module ships with '2H' and 'DW' rotations and allows for the Tier 15 4 piece set bonus. While you may display a queue of up to 10 actions, for Deathknights four at most should suffice.

I encourage others to suggest their own ideas, perhaps even upload your own module if you have some LUA skills. I am happy to assist. 🙂
