Update Your Spec At Patch Time

Each patch brings it's own challenges in regards to every class and race. Typically even if you are a class that gets nerfed you can soften some of the blow by changing up your talent tree to compensate. Furthermore, what may have been the cookie cutter answer to Death Knight tanking 2 patches ago might not hold true now. Lastly, lets not forget those theory crafting freaks at elitist jerks, that are constantly updating what is the perfect option for Death Knight talent builds.

I've been tanking primarily in Blood Spec and after some reading and acquiring gear I realize it's time for me to respec. Since I have a lot more mitigation than previously, I can afford to drop some of my talented mitigation and move on to more damage producing talents, which will also increase my threat generation.

This is the recommended Blood Tank Spec from Elitist Jerks following the latest patch 3.3

So, don't set on your laurels and get used to the same spec your entire WoW career. Stay up to date on what nerfs and buffs are coming through on patch day and learn to adapt your talents as need be.
