I finally got around to starting a Death Knight on WoW. Played on and off over the last four days and leveled it to 60. The starting area was fun but just at the last quest where you learn how DK's were severed from the service of the Litch King, I somehow stumbled into the middle of someone else doing the quest and only got to see the last third of the explanation.
As this is my first foray in melee, Im not really sure how to properly control the DK and get an optimal rotation. Im also absolutely positive that I screwed the pooch on the talent distribution. The were just coming at me so fast (at one point you complete 2 quests and have SIX talens to spend!) I didnt really have time to study the skill trees and just would up pouring most of them into Frost.
Its a cool class though, very very hard to die and I can easily handle a four mob of equal-to-slightly-higher level opponents. Kinda having a bit of culture shock not playing my mage. You non-mage chumps actually have to pay for food and take mundane transportation!? Ug, it drives me nuts.
