OMFG DK animations look awesome. Not to mention the abilities they have!!!

DK Blood Game play ('http://files.filefront.com/Blood+DKwmv/;11124225;/fileinfo.html')

DK Unholy Game play ('http://files.filefront.com/UnholyDKwmv/;11130050;/fileinfo.html')


I was totally thinking Blood all the way but damn that Death and Decay + Corpse explosion looks so much fun. I can't imagine they won't nerf the fear in D&D though, those mobs are getting feared ALOT.

Edit: More Videos

DK Blood Game play 2 ('http://files.filefront.com/BloodDKEscortwmv/;11144934;/fileinfo.html')
DK Frost Game play ('http://files.filefront.com/FrostDKwmv/;11141823;/fileinfo.html')
DK Starting zone ('http://files.filefront.com/DK+Start+Zone/;11136516;/fileinfo.html') *SPOILER ALERT* This video contains ALL DK quests in the starting zone from the time you login till the time you actually leave the area and join the Alliance or Horde, or otherwise are released from the Lich King's control.

Wow, Death Knights look like they are a blast to play. Will be interesting to see if they end up making good multi-boxing tanks since it appears they might be good at generating aoe threat.

I can't imagine they won't nerf the fear in D&D though, those mobs are getting feared ALOT.Blood looks to be all about melee, which doesn't appeal to me multibox-wise. The disease tree reminds me of D2 necromancers and looks completely boxable. I'll definitely roll at least 3-4 and maybe 1 frost tree tank and/or holy priest for Circle of Healing all my minions.

Makes me wish I had all my 70's still.. I'm tempted to drop my multi-box group and level as fast as possible to 70 on one char ^^

My main question would be>> how well can they "tank" because it seems wrong to be able to tank and do so much DPS. If they have good avoidance and that ae damage has great TPS>> OMG! Also with all those ranged spells, why play any other boring tank class? They seem a bit OPd to me. SO my hope is that the changes/additions to existing tanks will make up for it. After seeing those two videos alone, Who would NOT want to play at least one DK ? lol

Actgually it looks like Vimeo.com is having problems in general. None of the videos seem to be responding which blows cuz jayde just thru up another Frost DK video ('http://www.vimeo.com/1373916') this morning :cursing: As well as another Blood DK video. ('http://www.vimeo.com/1373946')

There is however a 2 hour long video of the DK starting zone ('http://files.filefront.com/DK+Start+Zone/;11136516;/fileinfo.html') made by another guy, I haven't watched it all yet but it seems to be pretty good thus far.

After watching these at work, I could hardly contain my many layers of impatience. I'm bursting at the seems. When, 'O when will November be here? 8o

Assuming that's the release date, in about 3.5 months. (Sorry, but my smart-ass senses were tingling).

Actually, November gets here in about 3.5 months regardless of whether that's the release date or not. ;) (Mine were tingling too.)

hey lets keep this clean guys ;)

What is everyone going to pick for race... I like how the Blood Elves look and there sort of silence racial might be good for tanking, but the undead racial is still the best.

A friend of mine got into the Beta (nice to have a GM in the guild), anyway. From what I hear and the little I've seen, death knights will be a blast. My friend said that the starting quest for Death Knights was the best thing he has even seen in wow so far (he is in a sunwell guild...). I just got a quick veiw of the gameplay earlier today. They have a taunt ability that pull an enemy to you, it was awesome, and the starting gear looks great too, all blue :)

Not to mention their higher stamina. Always nice. Plus, they make cool looking DK's, IMHO. Also, there are RP reasons (if you're into that) to justify undead DK's.

What I want to know is what gear and enchants were the people in those vids using. Without that, you can't really tell what bonuses are being applied. With max level enchants, it seems obvious that certain things would seem seriously OP. /shrug
