I should probably clarify, my focus is much less on pvp, and more on just seeing everything before its out of date - I missed naxx and AQ the first time around, and regretted it - so I will probably just be playing for a few months at least with a pure pve focus - after that time, if wow has hooked me again, I can level a pvp-fotm for filling in time - thats how I initially got the druid anyway

I imagine 55>70 would be mostly solo on the DK until I was grouping with the druid for wrath content, since all of the quests are aimed at filling in the DK talents etc for that gap? or is that just a level 55>60 thing? I am kind of torn - I had been tempting a friend to come back and tank for me, which was making me lean towards doing druid-lock as we all leveled, but he has decided to stay in eve for now, which is pushing me back towards leveling a dk to 70 and pairing from there - that would be fairly successful at tanking once into wrath content yes? its just the pre-DK content isn't designed for DK tanks?
