World of Warcraft

Official Death Knight site updated

Blizzard have updated the official World of Warcraft Death Knight page with a lot of sexy goodness.

Death Knight Class Information

The fearsome death knight, World of Warcraft’s first Hero class, is not your average adventurer seeking to prove his or her worth on Azeroth’s fields of battle. No longer servants of the Lich King, they begin their new calling as experienced, formidable adversaries, heavily armed and armored and possessing an arsenal of deadly and forbidden magic learned in the Lich King’s thrall. Here is an introduction, subject to change, of some of the death knight’s core gameplay mechanics and abilities: Unlocking and Creating the Death Knight

Simply have a character of at least level 55 on the World of Warcraft account you play, and you will be able to create a new level-55 death knight of any race (if on a PvP realm, the death knight must be the same faction as your existing character). Upon entering the world, your neophyte death knight will undertake a series of quests designed to teach you your new abilities. You will be able to create one death knight per realm, per account.

    nice i tell you, especially for people who dont have time to lvl anymore, but these guys start out in lvl 55

    So there is no quest to unlock the class... only have a lvl 55? I guess that makes sense, since it would be sort of stupid to have to do a quest on one character to make a totally separate character available. Like my human Paladin would really love to go do a bunch of crap in order to bring a death knight to life...

    Yes, and techincally, the Death Knight is more a "continuation" from the "normal" lvl 55 character =)
    You level your normal character to 55, log out and make a Death Knight, and then continue on your new "anti-paladin" from there ^^

    If your 55 normal was a Paladin as well, you could say that it has changed side from the Light to the Dark ;P

    I`m pretty sure you don`t "carry on" from 55 on an existing char - you need a lvl 55 OR HIGHER char to unlock ANOTHER CHAR SLOT for the deathknight.
    The only reason you`ll need a lvl 55 or higher char to qualify for a deathknight is to be sure you know enough about the game and how it works to handle being given a NEW lvl 55 char and that you`re not thrown in at the deep end without a clue.

    Awsome, Can't w8 untill release!<3 But They say ''You will be able to create one Death knight per realm,per account'' I don't get it, wich of those is right rofl?

    It means that for every server you can make one death knight for that server. As long as you have a level 55 character on ANY server you can make one death knight on any server, but no more than one per. The "per account" part means that for every account you have you can have one death knight per server.

    u have to have a level 55 on each server u wish to create a deathnight on. One 55 doesnt grant u a deathnight on every server

    I'd be careful and not make too many plans, there's already enough rumors running around.
