hello everyone, first of all, sorry for my english =P
I decided to open this topic because I'd like to know what could I do to improve my DPS as a frost dw DK... browsing through top dps charts on http://wowmeteronline.com I've came across DKs doing like 10k dps on particular fights, I know they probably have like all the BiS available currently and I don't expect to be doing that much DPS, but after doing OS 25 tonight I noticed that my DPS when I had the BiS back from T7.5 didn't change much from what I'm currently wearing, follows my armory:

and this is the combatlog from my last toc 10 man / onyxia run (didn't save the log for the OS run but it was around 4k dps):
http://www.wowmeteronline.com/combat/log/1069236
me and my guildies aren't top notch but we try to improve ourselves as much as we can... so please bear with me =P
theoretically my rotation is:
it > ps > ob > bs > bs > dump
ob > ob > ob > dump
trying to cast howling blasts whenever rime and km procs
I say theoretically because I try to adapt my rotation by using the priority system, trying to keep diseases up all the time, dumping my rp when it's full, doing ob's as much as I can and casting HoW in downtimes
here's a video of me fighting vs anub on toc 10:

this fight is probably the fight that I can get my highest dps...
as you can see on my armory I'm 1 point below the exp cap and waaaaayyy above the hit cap, but I have no idea on how to lower my hit rating to get that extra expertise and more str, besides, I'm still wondering which weapon should I use as my main hand weapon... I've tried switching them a few times on different fights but I didn't notice much different at all...
now that I have the Victor's Call trinket from ToC 10, I decided to make a macro for the following strikes: Obliterate, Blood Strike, Death Strike, Plague Strike and Frost Strike so they use the trinket prior the strike itself, and I use the Rune Strike macro, looking something like:
#showtooltip "Rune Ability"
/cast !Rune Strike
/use Victor's Call
/cast "Rune Ability"
and I would like to know if you guys think it's a good idea to use that trinket whenever it's up or save it for bursts with heroism, and as for the rune stirke, if is there a problem doing that
I'm using the stat weights for frost dw from EJ to look for upgrades on LootRank.com but I noticed some weird results, like Valorous Darkruned Battleplate being better than Thassarian's Battleplate of Conquest, or Mark of Supremacy and Shard of the Crystal Heart being the best trinkets that I can get doing 10 mans, and on Rawr, my theoretical DPS dropped from 3.7k on my old T7.5 BiS to 2.9k on my current gear
so... to finish it up, I would like to know what should I look for to improve my gameplay and therefore raise my DPS
sorry for the huge post, any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
