Mind you im a casual, so I only got LFR gear and the occasional ordos/celestials drop.
Main reason I want to go DK is I dont really like the hunter that much, being a pure DPS is a bit boring, I want the occasional tanking / offtanking at least as a possibility (or just running HC dungeons or so as tank).
I have always wanted to have a DK as main due to the heavy solo capabilities, I love going back through old content, mostly because ever since TBC launched I have been playing so little I have not kept up with raids and end-game content, now I really enjoy going back and doing that type of stuff.
What do you think about the solo capabilities, will DK's still be in a very good spot (best? 2nd place?) given current state in Beta?
I managed to keep up a bit in the start but now I really have no real feel of where we will end up to be honest, so many changes the last couple of weeks.
Edit: obviously, the hunter is also strong as a solo-class, one of the reasons I play it, I would put DK's in a better spot in current live-state though, but I am clueless how that is going to change in WoD.
