I've started getting into some endgame tanking with my death knight and I just switched from unholy to frost. I have never been so happy with making a switch change in the entire history of playing this game. Frost has by far the most fun mechanics I have played with in a long time. Huge frost strikes, free howling blasts, obliterate crits. Wow, it's unbelievably fun. I thought I'd be a dedicated unholy dk for sure, but I've certainly been proved wrong. I think my long term single target dps is probably a bit lower, but I wouldn't trade my snap aggro and group abilities for it for a second. Also, my DK's name is Frostbite, so it's somewhat more appropriate.
I think maybe getting death's bite helped, too! Mmmmmmmm....
