You
-do not convert a character into a death knight!-
You will not change your hunter into a death knight in any way, shape, or form. Death knights are their own class and have no relation whatsoever to your other characters in functionality. Death knights cannot use any ranged weapons.

wow that sucks
plz don't tell me all hero classes don't use mana
We dont know, chances are each hero class will have a unique resource system setting them apart, just like death knights use a rune system that nobody else has. Personally I hate mana =P
So yeah DKs are the new, old hunters where everything is based of AP... this will get nerfed soon.
Why? Both rogues and warriors, and enhancement shamans, and feral druids, and every other melee class is based on attack power. It's no different than casters being based on spell power.

Agility gives attack power as well, it's no different than just stacking RAP and actually is better, because it gives you crit in addition to higher damage.
And for some reason I seem to remember arms warriors being the overpowered ones back then =P
Every melee class focuses on both attack power, crit, expertise, and hit... you dont maximize your DPS by only getting attack power, or only getting crit chance - you have to mix them no matter what class you're playing. Death knights are no different.

When you first create a deathknight, you're considered part of the scourge (you do quests for the lich king). You're unable to communicate or interact with alliance or horde faction members.
The starting zone is instanced as well, so until you do the final quest there's no way to even see other faction members - they cant get to the same place you're at, think of it like the starting quests being a "past events" thing, while everyone else is in the future.
another thing is. once lich king comes out and death knights are released. will u be able to make a death night start at lvl 1? or will it always start at 55?
All death knights start at 55, no way around it.
another thing is. if someone buys lich king and doesnt have a lvl 55 character. will they still be able to make a death knight?
no, the class is considered "locked" until one character on your account reaches level 55 or higher. Before then you cannot create a death knight.
are u able to enter the new continent at all with the beta key or with dk or w/e? thx for reading if u did.
yes, we can go to northrend in the beta, but it's all level 68-80 - so those of us playing death knights in the beta have a lot of leveling to do before we can go there.

Can I Runeforge my main and offhand?
Yes, applying runeforge enchants works just like rogue poisons, with the exception that you need to be near a runeforge in ebon hold, naxxramas, or icecrown.
Is it permanent until overwriting?
Yes, runeforge enchants are permanent.
