Death Knight
 

Hello everyone

I was just wondering how many people are planning on rolling Death Knight for the expansion. I was thinking about it... but is everyone going to do the same thing?...

Lets discuss the pros and cons of rolling DK...

examples:
roll in raiding..
being OVERPOWERED..
etc

i'm rolling one because i think i'm gonna be staying prot. for some reason i like commin back to it... but i'm rollin a deathknight for my farmer =) and raiding as well, i can be more versatile

I'm not rolling one because that will take effort and Xingu has been 45 forever... :p

i have a couple friends in beta and they've been playing death knights amongst their other classes that they've been levelling

in short, death knights are not so over powered as everyone things.

a prime example being that a mage can easily kill a death knight as of right now

i liked death knights in FFXI....they kicked ass...i wonder if i should roll that

death knights start at level 55


WTF everyone will have a death knight

I'll have one

I <3 my future gnome Death Knight

I'd like to know if you start off with any first aid,fishing/cooking or gathering profession, or anything like that

death knights start out with the "kill" skill at 375

brix i hate to break it to you, but i have YET to be killed by a caster on beta on my dk. strangulate + chains + death grasp == dead caster.... no matter what class, mages are esp subject to this cause of their continued low hp >.< but oh well but really, they are not as overpowered as everyone seems to think.

yea they USED TO BE (with 86k crits and what not...[just what i've done on a boss that's all, but still nothing to write home about...wait yea that is, lol]) now it's more like a 8k crit if you're lucky. Balancing issues are all over the place for dk's atm, frost got nerfed to hell and now it's not even worth specing into it right now just b/c of the low dmg output it has. However it does have ONE thing about it, Imp. Icy Tallons. that's about it


brix... you will be MINE! /cackle
