The answer to "does anyone have" should, inevitably, be "you."

Original Post:

since searching for Death Coil didn't answer and DC is too broad, for Blood, I'm trying to follow the rotation (Which is anything but neat or tight thanks to dodges) and I'm hitting RP cap nonstop. Should I just ignore it and only DC when I have a free GCD, or, like Unholy, stop the rotation for a second to get uncapped?

Also does someone have the link to the math proving that blood is better than unholy (presences I mean) for the cookie cutter blood dps spec? I've been expirementing with Unholy, and thanks to better recovery from dodges, actually have better dps (testing on dummies, I haven't actually tried it on bosses), so I'd like to see the WWS etc actually proving it if someone knows where I can find it (glanced through blood thread but its all newer discussion). And on a related note, if Blood > Unholy, how certain are we on Expertise weights? I ask because I'm getting righteously fucked up in the rotation when I get a dodge and and in Blood presence the whole thing starts to get slightly off kilter, not the ezmoad that other people talk about.

In addition, what is the armor pen one should have before attempting to dps as Blood? I know Blood values Apn very highly, is 6% (without talent) enough?
Not asking for hand holding (but if someone wanted to armory me and point out any obvious mistakes in a PM I would'nt complain), I would just like to see the actual math proving some of these presences and weights, and an explanation of certain mechanics.
