I'm in the same boat as you. What I've found as Huge help is Beast Within. Prevents you from being CC'd for about 18secs but usually it's long enough.
Also, when the Death Grip you, Scatter Shot, Lay down a Frost trap. Jump and Disengage (I say Jump because there are times where you'll only backup maybe 5' if you're at a slope) Concussion shot, Hyena: Tenden Rip, Serpent Shot, Wyvern Sting. etc...
imo, at this point you need to take one point from GftT and place it into Improved Concussion for the extra sec. With Improved Concus and Tendon Rip you can keep them at 50% movement speed for a GOOD long while.
Also, take Resourcefullness and put the points into Entrapment. Since you're going SV you want to be all about the CC and a 4sec root is awesome.
Just my 2cents

Can you help me? I'm looking for some advise, I'm trying to make a lvl 60 dk twink, but some say lvl 59 twinks are of more use. Did I get this right, lvl 60 chars can join AV lvl 51-60 and the rest of the bgs 60-69? That makes lvl 60 twinks quite useless for anything but AV (in which they are awesome).
Then you might say "Make a lvl 59 twink, then", but I dont really get the point of that, since the gear will be almost exactly the same as the other players, i.e. not a twink...
Some advise, please. I'm a bit confused :S

I learned this lesson the hard way. Stay @ 59 and do the WSG and AB BGs then bump yourself a lvl and for AV. I did it bassackwards and now I'm going to pay for it in the long run by either seriously gimping the WSG/AB Battle Ground or being forced to wait till 69 to get everything for the Black War Wolf.
aftermidnight:
Is shaving 4secs off Disengage that important? I think that those might be better put to use under Lightning Reflexes. More AP and Crit which means more GftT procs as well.
Also drop FD Minor Glyph and use Scare Beast. You can turn Hunter Pets, Hunters (if under Aspect of the Beast), Shamans, and Druids. Very nice to kite them.
Dont forget you have the...wait a second. Why am I giving advice to a NE?
FOR THE HORDE! (kidding, advice should be solid)
I look forward to beating you on the field sir :) If you get killed by Kagnaz then it was the other one...who isn't me...

Another thought Specing to BM might help you too. I'm currently 60 and I've got a Sithilid which can DoT/Root from a distance after dashing to the target. In 1v1 you've got the upper hand on that. Plus with Beast Within you can ignore those CC's. Which is B-E-A-U-tiful.
If you dont want to go full Monty into BM then maybe

with Hynea.
You lose a majority of the CC but gain the ability to kick those punk Dk right in their OP butt

Thanks for the reply. The thing is: at 59 there is almost no enchants, no gems and DKs already have good gear at that lvl, but the idea of making a lvl 69 twink was quite nice advice :)
This will although ruin my plans for a lvl 60 dk twink, since with the gear I had planned of having had a total of
17
sockets...
But as you said, it wont work so well for AB/WSG, and you can't count on AV to be up at all times. :/
Anyway, thanks :)

There are a ton of "Item of level 35+" enchants that will give you a good edge. Plus you're a DK which is very OP at that level compaired to other classes.
If you went mostly UH you'd have a perm pet, AoE, +riding skill, AoE Slow, etc. If you wait for later levels it'll just even out the playing field for everyone a bit more.
Believe me, everyone wants to know how to kill DK's @ 59/60 because you guys are that tough. No one's asking "How do you kill a hunter/priest/mage?" because it's fairly simple to do that compaired to DK's.
IMO
