Death Knights in Forever?

I really hope we see Death Knights in Forever. I am a big fan of this beta and have high hopes for this game

Fix and balance the classes we have first. Adding class after class without a second thought is how we got to Retail. Lets not repeat that.

no thanks. death knights were always a silly power fantasy :expressionless_face: they belong as enemies in raids. not as a class for players

Yes please. They fit the vibe more than Sky Elves.

I would take Death Knights on the condition they fit with the world they build for Forever. Frost and Blood are my favorite to play, but I don’t want them thrown in just because. I really want this game to be built with care for the long term, and if that means Death Knights do not fit then so be it.

I’d prefer new classes that match the world rather then rehashed versions of retail classes

I hope we see it but as the rune master it was based on. I voted against dk and dh.

1:1 lifts from expansions that didnt happen in this timeline are a big ??? To me.

Add something new! Let’s see a warden and a rune master before dk or dh

Why would Frost and Blood not fit?

Ah yes, Death Knights don’t match the world. Completely absent from Azeroth until they were invented in RETAIL.

Yes, anyone who doesn’t play classes from the original lineup needs to deal with getting sidelined because we need novelty for the sake of novelty!!

Only if they are WC3 style DKs and require one to sacrifice a level 60 paladin.

What about WC2 style Death Knights?

Those are literally just Warlocks.

With similar abilities, Death Coil, Death and Decay and Raise dead. Only difference is they were ranged instead of melee.

I’m hoping they do this with every class. Want a monk? Get a priest to 60. Would really prolong the forever journey to have true hero prestige classes.

As said they’re just undead warlocks wearing plate. Not to mention Gul’dan directly created them and they’re all pretty much destroyed aside from Teron Gorefiend while WC3 DKs have runeblades like Baron Rivendare’s which could easily tie with players becoming DKs.

No, I mean canonically Warcraft II Death Knights are Warlocks.

As to substance, what’s the point of making a class called Death Knight and then making it ranged?

I don’t know, ask Blizzard. They created it.

Not for Forever, they didn’t.

I find death knight boring but you seem to consider thst some kind of logical failure on my part :thinking:

In Warcraft 2 they did. Which would be before Forever.

And before WC3

Blood and Frost are WotLK DKs (aka 3rd Gen) not the WC3/Vanilla DKs (aka 2nd Gen).
