Next Wednesday, the Death Knights in World of Warcraft will drastically increase. This is due to the new patch with some new features…
World of Warcraft Shadowlands will manage without a new class, but starting next Wednesday, the possibilities for class-race combinations will be drastically expanded, at least for Death Knights. All races that previously had to forgo this class can then join the undead.
These races will now become Death Knights: After the patch, all races will be able to become Death Knights. New to this are:
- Pandaren (Both factions)
- Void Elves (Alliance)
- Lightforged Draenei (Alliance)
- Dwarves of the Dark Iron (Alliance)
- Kul Tiran (Alliance)
- Mechagnomes (Alliance)
- Nightborne (Horde)
- Highmountain Tauren (Horde)
- Mag’har Orcs (Horde)
- Zandalari Trolls (Horde)
- Vulpera (Horde)
New starting sequence in Icecrown: The Death Knights of the Pandaren and allied races do not start their journey in Acherus but have a special intro sequence with a small quest line. They serve the Lich King Bolvar and land after entering Azeroth to join the Horde or Alliance. They also receive the class mount of the Death Knights but do not have to play through the old starting area of the Death Knights.
How can you play the new Death Knights? To be able to play one of the new Death Knights starting January 15 (next Wednesday), you must have pre-ordered the expansion “Shadowlands” – no matter which of the three editions. Once that is done, the account can create the new Death Knights if the allied races have been unlocked. Only Pandaren do not need to be unlocked as they belong to the basic races.
By the way, it is particularly cool that Death Knights (whether old or new) will receive a slight overhaul of their eyes. Instead of just glowing blue, there is now an icy, moving veil that reminds one of Lich King Arthas. This makes Death Knights look even more impressive.
Will you also create a Death Knight starting Wednesday? Or won’t you jump on the bandwagon and stay loyal to your class?
