The Death Knight

Name: Searinox
Race: Night Elf
Sex: Female
Class: Death Knight
Level: 80
Gearstatus: lvl80 Quest/Heroics Blue/Epic CRIT-Immune!

Reason I started leveling in the first place:
I started my Death Knight pretty much first thing after WotLK released. The starting area is nice now.. but playing a Death Knight invasion with 20-40 other Death Knights was even better! My love for Outland and the overpowered Blood Deathknight (no downtime as I got out of most fights with 100% health) made my way through Outland a breeze. I enjoyed every second of it and I think I even stayed there till lvl70 (instead of jumping to Northrend at 68).
Shortly after Outland I got bored and Searinox stood still for months. Only pretty recently I got her to 80 and enjoy tanking and DPSing, both in BloodSpec, till this day!

Thoughts on tanking:
The tanking on a Death Knight is very enjoyable in my opinion. I am still pretty limited by my runes though. Especially at the start of my Multi-target Rotation (DnD->IC->PS->Pes) leaves me short of runes for about 5-6 seconds. Regardless.. I feel like I have quite a bit of tools to make my runs go smooth.

Thoughts on the Class:
The Death Knight Class itself is pretty nice and in my opinion well thought of. It seems to me it’s just a bit overpowered compared to some other classes. The mix of resources (Runes and Runic Power) makes it interesting. I can’t say I expirienced much more then Blood-Spec, so there is still a lot for me to discover about the class!
