Death Knight Blood Macros

Ready-to-paste macros for Blood Death Knight: the burst key derived from the current top parses, plus the macros this spec actually uses. Spell names follow the language you pick on this site, so they match your game client.

This page collects the macros a Blood Death Knight actually binds, starting with a burst key built from the openings of three top-ranked players on WarcraftLogs. For raid bosses those players open with Death's Caress, and both Raise Dead and Dancing Rune Weapon showed up in at least two of the three openers, so both are folded into the key. For Mythic+ the bar drops to one opener out of three: AoE pulls start with Blood Boil, single-target pulls with Death and Decay, and in both cases Raise Dead is the only off-GCD cooldown kept. Every version also adds trinket /use lines, because trinkets were pressed in the sampled openings. Below the burst key sit the spec macros. Mind Freeze uses [@focus,harm,nodead] so you can kick a marked caster without swapping targets, and falls back to your current target when no focus is set. Gorefiend's Grasp gets three anchors on one button: Shift for your focus, then a mouseover unit, otherwise yourself. Death and Decay lands at the cursor, or under your feet while you hold Ctrl. Copy a macro into a new slot and keep the spell names in your client language; the site switches them when you change language.

A macro can fire only one global-cooldown ability per press — that is the game's limit, not ours. So a burst key is exactly: on-use trinkets + the off-GCD cooldowns top players press in their opener + one opener spell. Nothing else fits.

Off-GCD cooldowns pressed within the first 8 casts by at least 2 of the 3 sampled players, defensives and movement removed. Ends with the first on-GCD opener so everything fires in one press.

Slot 13 / 14: the data cannot tell which slot the on-use trinket sits in, so both are listed; the passive one just prints cannot use.
