How Your Death Knight Can Dominate World PvP
by Henda2 on Jul.30, 2009, under General
Player versus Player (PvP) combat is in your Death Knight’s future, even if you’ve avoided it so far. WotLK has brought a new emphasis to World of Warcraft’s World PvP. The big change is clear in the new real time PvP battle zone called Lake Wintergrasp. There, the emphasis is on real-time World PvP.
In this new zone, you face off on the live server to win points you can convert into a wide variety of rare and valuable items such as the new Heirloom items. These are items that any character in their account from level 1 to 80 and beyond can use.
With Lake Wintergrasp’s high popularity, and the increasing amount of PvP combat in other popular games, there will surely be even more World PvP in the future. Here’s what you need to know to handle your Death Knight in this new world:
With the release of Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK), a new class of character, the Death Knight, is stalking WoW PvP. With an intriguing mix of melee and casting skills, including magics learned form the Lich King that were formerly forbidden, the Death Knight brings new opportunities and problems to PvP combat. With its versatility, Death Knight PvP play can range from massive physical attacks like a Warrior, to being a support caster for a party. You can even do some limited healing. The options are many.
Perhaps your most important consideration when you are planning to play a Death Knight in PvP is your talent tree. With talents on the Frost, Unholy, and Blood lines, your play style and the talents you choose will be intimately related. The talents in the Blood line will make your character more like a Warrior, with high DPS physical attacks, while Unholy talents will give you diseases and summoning to throw at your enemies. Talents in the Frost line nicely complement those in the other two lines, and make Frost/Blood or Frost/Unholy hybrids powerful. Depending on your specific play styles, the right mix of Frost and Unholy talents may well be the ultimate Death Knight PvP build. Regardless, the way you fight in PvP will figure mightily into deciding the best way to build out your Death Knight.
Beyond knowing how to spec out your Death Knight, you need to have some idea of how to battle the other player classes, and how they are likely to do battle with you. While there’s some useful information available, everything to do with Death Knights is new and confusing. Getting advice from the top PvP players could give you a huge edge in how well you do in PvP combat.
Considerations like these are why a Death Knight PvP guide is crucial for your success. Even though Death Knights are relatively new player characters, many of the most experienced WoW PvP already have Death Knight experience that they share in newly-updated PvP Guides. Choosing the top guide to playing a Death Knight in PvP combat can save you many hours of trial and error (and many headaches) as you get your character ready to dominate the arena or anywhere there is Player versus Player combat.
