If you posted once, and no-one answered it, it might have been because it was a useless question that you are perfectly capable of testing yourself.

Original Post:

I posted this question in the DK simple answers thread about a week ago and didn't get a reply so I decided to post it here:
The standard rotation in the blood thread is:
IT-PS-HS-HS-DS -DUMP- DS-HS-HS-HS-HS -Dump-
However sometimes I see myself with 2 blood runes and 2 death runes after I restart with IT and PS and what I end up doing is HSx4 at the beginning of my rotation instead of at the end. So it ends up like this:
IT-PS-HS-HS-HS-HS-DS-DUMPx1-HS-HS-DS-DUMPx2
Is this a lesser dps rotation? I still have room for dump phases and my DS still always have atleast 25 RP.
Infact sometimes with the standard rotation's 2nd DS I see myself with only 20RP and I'm losing 5% extra damage on it because the first dump phase generally has 2 GCD's worth of time for 2 DC's.
I also noticed that if you start with: (suggested "starting" rotation from blood thread)
DS-IT-PS-HS-HS--Raise Ghoul-DC-HS-HS-DS-HS-HS -Dump
You finish off with 2 deathrunes, 2 bloodrunes, and U/Fx1 left for IT and PS so you can go right into HSx4 at the start of your rotation anyways.
So my question is, would doing this rotation be a loss of DPS? Could it possibly be an increase with my DS's always having atleast 25 RP?
