at Blizzcon 2007. (Said by the staff of course.)

6. Will it Have Mana or Something else?
7. What makes my Death Knight Different?
1. What is a Hero Class? - A Hero class is a
class that can to be obtained, A Hero class is a completely new
idea that Blizzard has just implemented. 2. How
do I Unlock my Death Knight? - The Death Knight will be
unlocked through a Long quest chain. This chain will be done by a
level 80 and is expected to take a while.
- The quest line's roll is to teach you about your death knight.
3. What will
Happen to my Main? - Your
Main will not be transformed into a death knight. Blizzard juggles
with this idea but thought that you would be losing something to
gain something.
- The death knight will be unlocked and will start at a high level.
This is also a part of the hero class. imagine a level one death
knight gnome killing boars, lol. Blizzard is not sure on the
expected level but they expect it to be within level 50-70.
4. What Gear Will
i be able to use? - Death Knights
will be a plate wearing class. But they will not have the ability to
use Shields.
- You will get a Special Weapon either Two-Handed or one handed
(Intended to dual wield)
- This will be referred to as your "Runeblade(s)"
5. What Gear will my Death
Knight start with? - Your Death Knight
will have gear stated as reasonably Decent for your level, ( Blues
im assuming.)
- You will start with a mount!
6. What Kind of
System will i use? - Your
Death Knight will use a whole new type of system called the Rune
System.
- This will be totally personal and you will be able to make it how
you want it!
- You will be able to choose the runes placed there. The runes will
recharge just like energy does (but slower I imagine)
7. What Makes
the Death Knight Different? - This
class is meant to feel completely different from any other class. It
is a dps class, like a rouge but Blizzard is being very careful not
to make it over power the rogue but it will be a hearty competitor.
- The Death Knight will not only be a melee class but a summoning
class.
- The Death Knight is a VERY, VERY Different class.
