In the last post, we covered Death Knight crafting professions for Death Knights with a penchant for shaping, crafting and (most importantly) smashing metal into all sorts of neat and interesting shapes.
What if that isn’t for you though? What else could you do?
So you’ve looked at our manual labour professions and have either picked one, two, or none of them as jobs. For those who still want a second job or are still looking for your first, you might be in luck!
We’re going to be looking at the jobs that force you to work with metals and stones in an effort to create and construct powerful weapons, durable armor, useful gadgets, or stunning jewelry.
My Death Knight, Embry, is officially Level 80. When I decided to ease up on my gold rush it seemed like the perfect time to re-visit this neglected character and see what it was like to seriously play the class.
If I learned anything on my journey to my third Level 80 character it was this: I’m awful with melee classes. I’m pretty sure that even through 20+ levels of quests that I still have no idea what I’m doing with my Death Knight. I rolled with my own Blood build and rotation the entire way but last night I did some research and figured out what the general consensus on the “right” way to play a Death Knight really is. You can check him out on the Armory to see if I’m doing it right or not. Any help in the comments of this post would be greatly appreciated.
So you’ve made a Death Knight. You’ve conquered the starting area, defeated hundreds of Scarlet Crusaders, slaughtered countless innocents, and fought your way to the top.
But you don’t have a job, do you?
When it comes to macros, we know a lot of people just like yourself have no idea what they do. Without getting all technical on you, these are a way for you to make various commands with icons by using coding. It’s actually quite simple once you understand everything, but in the early go you may run into a few bumps in the road. Our goal today is to help you understand why they are important, and what macros you should use for your Death Knight.
Just like any other class, Death Knights have three different trinkets at their disposal in the beginning. Unfortunately you can only use two, which makes narrowing down your choices a little more difficult. Granted, they will come with completed quests, but once you have more than two the usage will be based on how you equip your Death Knight. Here is the three you start out with during your Lich King quests. Reading over their abilities outside of the World of Warcraft game may help.
Soul Harvester’s Charm
Listen, we’ve created six different Death Knights and each one is equipped with the Soul Harvester’s Charm trinket. First off, it improves your critical strike rating by 20. Since your Death Knight will be geared towards gaining DPS stats, this is essential during your gaming. While the critical strike is nice, you will also gain a huge parry increase (90) for ten seconds. Keep in mind this only happens once an enemies melee attack knocks your health down to under thirty-five percent.
Due to the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, the Death Knight Glyphs have become a hot commodity on WoW. The hardest thing for a player to decide is which one will suit their toon the best. Unfortunately we don’t have all the answers for you, but the good news is we can definitely give you a short guide on what each glyph can do during game play. All you will need to do is match a few of these glyphs up with the way your Death Knight has been built.
First of all, let’s negate all the addons that are essentials for most players. You know, the Carbonite Quest Helper, Auctioneer, and any other type of addon that helps you get through World of Warcraft a little easier. Those having nothing to do with the information you will find below. The only type of Death Knight addons we want to talk about right now are the ones that will enhance your toon’s abilities. These are the five we believe can change the landscape of your game play.
The Rotate Addon
Even though many of you prefer to use your own spells during game play, there are times when everyone could use a little help. The Rotate addon is a nice little tool for Death Knights who aren’t sure what they should use next to take out an opponent. While it won’t be something you use all the time, it helps to know a suggestion can be made to you in case you aren’t sure how to beat an enemy.
