I prefer scourge strike over festering strike.

Festering hits kind of hard and does increase your dots duration (not by a substantial amount though) but uses 2 x runes... Scourge hits twice per use and only uses 1 rune. The only time you should ever use festering (in my opinion) is when you're trying to build up as much runic in as little globals.

Keeping your pet empowered at all times is a must.

Yes it's faster but 2x icy touch and 2x blood boil can be useful against certain comps like war/mw where u train the warrior unless the mw sucks. You need icy touch to dispell enveloping/renewing mist etc. If u keep dispelling those you have a higher chance to win. Basically you need to learn how to switch rotations during certain comps as a dk.
