The whole point is to play it now so you can get a Death Knight and be on level 70 by the time the expansion comes out,

actually you only need to be level 55 to roll the deatknight. The only reason to play now is to hang out with friends that you've already made... at least that's my reason.

I know you have to be 55 I never said anything about what level you have to be. I said to get to a death knight and get up to level 70.

Does anyone play on the server Runetotem?

[DarkenedWings]

=) I dinged to 70 last month. What sucked was that my computer got f***ed and rebooted, taking all files with it :(.

So I never got to play for a damned week... I have it downloading from the site, so even when I left it on for 7am to 8pm, it would only be up 10%... o.o

I guess it isn't as bad as the last time I lost it... :| It took a week to download THE US version. So after 2 days of pathetic attempts to log on, I realized there was more :(. So it took another week getting Europe one D=

But... yeah, excited for Wrath of teh Lich King. =) By the way, aren't Death Knights supposed to be evil? o.o. I'm not sure lol .

The whole Death Knight thing is just another lollore thing so people have just ignored it now. They've screwed up lore before, so why not some more.

[dakdakgoose]

yeah the lore is totally screwed up now.

[SuperEclipse]

ok heres some of the class changes revealed so far, some of which i want to lol at...

Death Knight

* Developers don't want talent trees to be pigeonholed into specific roles. Each tree will be functional both roles.
* Runes have a 10 second separate cooldown
* Army of the Undead will make players feel like how the Lich King feels when he commands the Scourge to attack
* All races are confirmed to have Death Knights. The Lich King wants them all

Hunter

* Steady Shot will no longer clip Auto Shot, meaning it won't have to be timed, just spammed
* The skill point system of pets will be replaced with Pet Talents, one tree for utility, one tree for tanking and one tree for DPS
* A new ability will make the pet deal extra 20% damage when on 20% health

Mage

* Mage Armor will be reworked to reduce harmful debuff durations
* New ability: Frostfire Bolt. In itself it's not as good as Frostbolt or Fireball, but when the player talents into both Frost and Fire, Frostfire Bolt will be better.
* Devs will make sure Mages are kings of AoE damage, and scaling up their damage to be viable

Shaman

* Totems will affect the entire raid!
* Strength of Earth and Grace of Air will be merged
* Windfury will be changed, so that druids are affected by it too. It's no longer a weaponbuff, but a buff.
* Rockbiter Weapon will be replaced with Earthliving Weapon which increases healing done
* Flametongue Weapon will increase spell damage
* New ability: Hex. Emergency CC spell that leaves movement control for the hexxed player, but is unable to cast spells. 0.5sec casting time, 8-10sec duration

Rogue

* Sap will work on not only humanoid targets, but on pretty much everything that has a brain
* New ability: Fan of Knives. Similar to the Warden spell in Warcraft 3. Short AoE

Warrior

* New talent: Titan Grip is now confirmed. Allows the Warrior to wield Two-Hand weapons in both hands.
* New ability: Shockwave. Helps prot warriors dealing damage
* New talent: Bladestorm. Similar to WC3 spell
* Devs want warriors to feel more like the warriors in Warcraft 3

Warlock

* New talent: transforms the warlock into "Illidan demon form". One of the available spells in demon form is an AoE shadowbolt that can be spammed!
* New ability: Demonic Circle. Small area where the warlock can teleport back into and decreases pet summoning time

Paladin

* Retribution itemization will be moved even closer to Warrior and Death Knight itemization
* New ability: Hand of Purity. Reactive healing spell

Priest

* New ability: Divine Hymn. New holy spell that allows the priest to heal the entire party. When a partymember is struck they go into a trance.
* New 51 point shadow talent: Dispersion. 90% incoming damage reduction, 6% health/mana regen. The priest can move, but cannot cast spells. Allows a new form of defense against melee to make Shadow Priests more viable in highend Arena PVP
* New talent: Guardian Spirit. Prevents friendly target from being killed. A pet that gives "Cheat Death" to the target, if the player would die, the spirit pet dies instead

Druid

* Entangling Roots will work indoors as well, to help druids get into heroic groups
* New ability: Flourish. 1.5sec casting time healing spell, its effectiveness depends a lot on what HoT effects are on the target
* Cyclone won't be changed
* Potions, on-hit effects and items will work in forms.

Uh, care to explain where you saw that? Closest I see is Haunt, but that's not an AoE shadowbolt spam.

[SuperEclipse]

^They was leaked. You can find it on any WoW site now.


Looks like Blizzard took a page CoH, and form the upcoming MMO Warhammer.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King

Kind of cool, I hope more MMOs do this.

Hellyeshellyeshellyeshellyeshellyes.

It'd best be in the f*cking Arms tree. If it isn't, I'll be uberly pissed. I don't want to respec Fury.

Anyways, it'd make sense for an Arms Warrior to be able to do that. Fcuking MAJOR DPS TIME WOOT WOOT :D

So, I rerolled Huntard and I'm at level 48.
loleasymode

Running around at level 48 with 3000gold is supah fun.

[SuperEclipse]

I used too care about my Hunter but now I don't even try buying good Gear or gams for her.. I really only use her too __ around and make farm..

Idk maybe its because Blizzard pretty much said __ you hunters because I used too have tons of fun it. Hell I remember soloing my pet could hold aggro now he can't.

I love my Priest though, she is so much fun.

Also coming for a Horde player.. If you are Allice roll a Priest because no matter what the damn Horde will ignore you and your heals.

Check out DeathKnight.info and WotLK Wiki for the info.

I was already making a DK as my new main and this video just makes it better.

4 minutes of DK gameplay

So far the only people in the beta right now are previous Alpha testers and a few others. The Beta Opt-In emails have not been sent out yet....keep your fingers crossed, I still am.

Check out DeathKnight.info and WotLK Wiki for the info.


Now, I just need too either pick a Undead Male DK or a Female BE DK.(that will be hard)

World of Warcraft is ok, but it gets old after a while. I prefer Guild Wars, but that's just my opinion.

[SuperEclipse]

I never got into Guild Wars. I've played it but it bore me too easily.
