Basic Description:
Death Knights engage their foes up-close, supplementing swings of their weapons with dark magic that renders enemies vulnerable or damages them with unholy power. They drag foes into one-on-one conflicts, compelling them to focus their attacks away from weaker companions. To prevent their enemies from fleeing their grasp, death knights must remain mindful of the power they call forth from runes, and pace their attacks appropriately.

Class overview:
Death Knights are melee warriors who can specialize in 3 diffrent subclasses:
- Uhnoly - While free from the Lich King's grasp, some death knights still embody the ever-corrupting nature of the Scourge plague that once threatened to consume Azeroth. No matter their allegiance or cause, they remain defilers of life; and nowhere is their callousness more on display than when threatened. Inflictors of the most aggressive of diseases and masters of raising unhallowed minions from the ground these unholy death knights are vicious melee combatants, capable of striking with the force of an undead legion and unleashing pestilence that would bring their foes to ruin.
- Frost - Combining martial prowess with supernatural cold, frost death knights leave their enemies chilled to the bone and broken of the will to fight. Unlike mages who learn to harness frost magic to great effect, these death knights are born of it, rime gripping their decaying hearts. These frozen undead warriors wield dual blades to strike with ferocity and inflict deathly cold upon anyone who would stand against them.
- Blood - In undeath, some death knights find a special affinity for the blood and bone of the living. They carve into their enemies, sustaining themselves with deadly sanguine strikes, while using the bloody, shattered remains of the dead to fortify their own defenses. These crimson-soaked knights bend the very rules of mortality to control the frontlines of the battlefield.
Death Knight's spellcasting modifier is Strength.
Death Knights use for their spells special resource - Runic Power and Runes.

Hero Talents
Hero Talents are self-contained talent trees that are unlocked for characters at level 13. Hero Talents build on the abilities and talents of current class and specializations. Players can choose a single Hero Talent tree to activate on a character. There are three Hero Talent trees for each class. Each specialization has two Hero Talent trees they can choose between, and each of these trees is available as an option for two specializations.
Hero Talents will be displayed in as a seperate class but choose it only after you level your main warlock subclass. I would suggest getting some health boost for the enemy because you will start to do a lot of damage.
Hero specializations overview:
- Rider of the Apocalypse (Unholy and Frost) - Riders of the Apocalypse call foth the power of the legendary Four Horsemen. They can call upon the Horsemen for aid and tap to the powerds of death, famine and disease.
- Deathbringer (Frost and Blood) - Become emissary of death. Aim for the soul of your enemies with attacks empowered by the Shadowlands, and remind them of the inevitability.
- San'layn (Blood and Unholy) - San'layn excel at using blood and shadow magic to weaken their enemies and empower their own capabilities.
