As one of the older players, and thus in turn a bit slower that you hotshots out there, im having problems mximising my DKs DPS. i have read alot of the info around and also tried changing gems,raising my hit stat etc, but still my dps is max 1.5k. I realise that i have have to replace the blues that i am wearing, and to aid in that endeavour, i have been battling in WG religiously for 2 wks. Could some kind soul out there have a look at my toons link and point me in the right direction? btw i use a typical cookie cutter unholy spam macro(if thats any help). Also, is it normal that my hp is only 19700 in blood presence? Any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanx

If you're talking about pve damage, you don't have Outbreak to increase your scourge strike damage by 20%, and that is quite significant, nor do you have Reaping so that you can do the standard Unholy rotation.
(PS - IT - BS - BS - SS - RP Dump - SS - SS - SS - RP Dump)
Also, PvP gear itemizes heavier into Stamina and Resilience, where on PvE gear, that would be Strength and Crit rating.
If you were referring to PvP dps, then ignore this.

Thank you for your reply,
sry, yes i meant pve :-).the reason i have pvp gear atm, is cause its hard to get accepted on runs, due to my low DPS, so its a case of catch 22 for me, and im confined to WG reward gear .Having taken your advice into account, where then should i cut talent points from, in order to facilitate Outbreak and reaping?

Genx is correct. You are missing reaping and outbreak. Get rid of Imp Unholy Presence it's not worth it at your gear level.
There is a great thread on this in the Helpful Threads sticky. Get your rotation down, and keep in contact with targets your dps will jump. Your stats project you to have a higher dps, just make sure you are not fighting from in front of the target but from behind the target.
1.5 is a bit low for heroics. Personally I don't like people below that amount in my group. I have a general rule if you can't beat the tank in dps by the time we get to the first boss you need to go back to normals unless the tank is an Ulduar geared Paladin lol.
One of the easiest ways to get a group is to dual spec and learn to tank. DK's are great tanks, and it will allow you to gear up quickly.
Read the helpful thread stickies on unholy dps.
