Re: Death Knights, Oh the Death Knights?
You want to try to do as much casting as possible when he is CC'ed, as he has at least 2 Mind Freezes and a Strangulate that will make it extremely difficult to do much of anything at all otherwise. If he has Lichborne this will be a little bit more difficult. In my opinion, DK's are harder to take down than a rogue, (at least if you are Destro specced), as they can keep you from casting, and have long range slows, silences, stuns, and damage dealing abilities, (however, if your are Affliction it might be the other way around.) If you see a DK headed your way it is best to get a Demonic Circle down ASAP. If they Deathgrip you use Deathcoil and wind up a Fear (remember what I said about casting while the DK is CC'ed), if they use Lichborne it might be best to use your Teleport at this time as you are likely to eat a Strangulate if he has it available.
Depending on your race, spec, and pet choice, you will have significantly different options. For me, since I am a Destro specced Gnome with a Succubus, I like to at this point try to get a double Seduce nuke followed by a Shadowfury nuke, kiting with the Aftermath procs and throwing DoT's while kiting as well, and if he CoI me I have the racial, Escape Artist. Hopefully his pet will have caused a Backlash or two to proc.
If you use another pet or spec, obviously you will have to play differently, but note that the Fulhunter can eat his silences and slows, and I believe it can eat his AMS and Lichborne too, but I would need to confirm that.
