Template. World of Warcraft (en) Forums -> Death Knight FAQ. Death Knight FAQ. This FAQ has been updated as of 1/5/09. Q: How do you create a Death knight? A: Currently, once you have a level 55 or higher character of any class on your server, you can create a deathknight on your server which will start at level 55. As of the 3.0.8 Patch, once you have a level 55+ character on -any server-, you will be able to create a new deathknight on -any server- as well. Q: Where do Death Knights start? A: Death Knights begin at level 55, in an instanced version of Eastern Plaguelands - more specifically, you find yourself awakened in Acherus: The Ebon Hold, which is a necropolis floating above light's hope chapel, similar to Naxxramas.
After the cutscene, you follow a series of questlines both within Acherus, as well as in the plaguelands below; these quests will eventually lead you up to level 58, at which point -after- having finished all of the start quest chains you will be able to leave the Ebon Hold and venture onward into outland. Q: What races can be Death Knights? Power Leveling | Skeleton Jack. World of Warcraft Pro. Jame's MMORPG Blog: Death Knight. Here we go again. I went to do some parsing in the Blasted Lands, because it's impossible to do it in the Ebon Hold with dozens of people bashing the Training Dummies 24/7 and messing up my results with their extra diseases :P Note: Both tests are done with a level 61 Death Knight, equipped with the starting area set. Anyway, here is the first test. 5 Minutes of single target damage with this Unholy Spec. The Gargoyle was summoned twice and lasted full duration each time. Total combined DPS: 702 DPS Conclusion: We're doing a bit less damage than before, overall.
On the other hand, the ghoul got seriously nerfed to oblivion. All in all, I like this new Unholy DK more than the old one, because even though it was fun to have an imba pet, our personal damage was pathetic, and this needed fixing. Blood DPS Parsing results Here we go. Ghoul was summoned once and fought for 2 minutes. Total DPS: 654 DPS Conclusion: Quite close, as you can see. The Unholy Build still comes ahead.
