Will Death Knights Wreck World Of Warcraft?

by Darren

That is the question dogging some regular players of the game. Since “Death Knight” is a “Hero Class” they wonder if at some point won’t all the people in the game start playing that character, creating an imbalance in the gameplay that can’t be recovered from.

Enough about me though. World of Warcraft is slowly drawing to an end, I can smell it with grief. This new “Hero Class” Death Knight is really gonna attract people. Tanks that DPS, summon undead pets, who wouldnt go for it rather than stay as a bland old normal class that would get absolutely run over in the PvP rounds, or probably get negged for raids under a “hero class”? Hopefully, not all will switch to Death Knight, but how many of the ones who didnt switch might be healers? and will we have enough healers to do raid, pvp, pve, etc? Raiding will be hard to set up and a 37 DK vs 36 DK AV match will be…. bland as Hell. If anyone have an idea that would contradict my complaint, plz do tell

Of course a migration to the new character of this magnitude seems unlikely. Surely many players will stick with their current characters because of the insane amount of time and energy they’ve put into them.

Do you think the Death Knight is bad for WOW?
