As I come into groups for Naxx, I see lots of death knights. When I inspect them, they usually have some pieces of rogue gear. I know that for rings and neck pieces its sometimes unavoidable, but you should never go for some rogue pieces. You'll see dps warriors happily taking the gear for its agility and attack power, but rogue gear doesn't give strength. As a death knight, every 2 points of strength equal 1 point of attack power. Agility is good for crit, but it doesn't help your attack power , which you need as a dps.
Another thing not to get too much of is Haste. Since auto-attacks are a small pertentage of your dps, you dont want to make a huge fuss over the haste gear. Try to remain below 500 haste. Here is a list of recommended gear that dpsing death knights might want from Heroic Instances:
Chitin Shell Greathelm
Pauldrons of the Lightning Reverent
Gold Amulet of Kings
Breastplate of Undeath
Bands of the Stoneforge
Pendulum of Telluric Currents
Spiked Metal Cilice
Gauntlets of Capture
Hemorrhaging Circle
Band of Frosted Thorns
Echoing Stompers
Cloak of Gushing Wounds
Greatsword of the Sin'Dorei
Or
Titansteel Destroyer
Ill be back soon with Gearing Up Normal Raids
1) You say that 2 STR = 1 attack power.
2) most of this information is in the DPS Heroic drops section of the sticky. It just needs an update for the AT weapon.
