Death Knights

[Zakk]

So, with WotLK looming on the horizon, the chance to play as a Deathknight has no doubt given some of you a nerdgasm.  So i was wondering, which of you guys is going to (or thinking about) re-rolling to a DK?  Personally, im seriously considering it, im going to start one for sure, and will possibly use it as my main, the chance of being able to play such a pivotal hero in the warcraft lore is just too tempting for a lore geek like me.

Can't wait to start playing with this new resource system.

Hopefully one day we'll find out that the runes mean 'Shit', 'Hell', and 'Retard' in some obscure runic language.

I think most of us will follow the chain for the hero class out of boredom eventually, I just don'tknow how herioc they will be while be balanced? Or will blizzard throw that out the window and hero classes just become the uber class?

nope, I've said it, not rerolling till I can play a) troll shadowhunter, b) troll witch doctor

[Gaeios(Graxlos)]

All that shit doesnt matter.

PANDAREN BREWMASTER !!! !!! !!!

Obviously my Deathknight will be a troll, once a troll, always a troll.

I'm with Grax on this one. Best WC3 character ever.

They're going to be on the same level of capability as all the other classes. Blizzard has said this roughly nine-thousand and one times. What makes them a hero class is that they are stylistically and mechanically set apart and individual from all other classes, in the case of the death knight this is mainly due to their resource system.

Deathknights won't have bubble, stealth, or heal (aside from maybe death coil, but if they make it like WC3's version (to set it apart from warlock's version) it will cost the deathknight health and probably rune(s) to cast as a nuke on an enemy or a heal on a friendly, with a cooldown.

The whole rune system, along with whatever abilities/talents they get in conjunction with ability cooldowns will make for a fairly complex class in its variability. Rune management will be interesting :)

& based on the BE Paladin succes(ha ha).....

Problem i see with this new class AND new combat system...

=
it will all be rerollers, 98% will be unstable disgruntel angry mofo's toddlers who resort to this class as a last resort ingame/inlife/inwhatever.
Then when they all rerolled and have all these amazing abilities(no doubt it will be very cool) , they are gonna get nerfed and nerfed into the ground simply because its hard to balance anything allready, let alone a new combat system, leading to more whines and QQ.

Cant wait..
