Plate-wearing tank/DPS hybrid
Upon reaching level 80 and embarking on a quest "similar in difficulty to the Warlock epic mount quest," the ability to create a new Death Knight character will be unlocked
Starts around level 60 or 70, "intended as an alternative, advanced class for end-game use only"

I really dislike what Blizzard did to the Warcraft series with WoW. Yes, it would be fun as it first started... to an extent... but I'd much rather they have spent all their time doing another Warcraft rts than an MMO. Especially with the whole fight Arthas thing (not to mention Illidan), I was hoping to have those cool fights in the form of epic RTS battle, not in an RPG setting.
