    Post Death Knight in China have ghost gryphon as class mount

    Wrath of the Lichking is still not available in mainland China,but will come soon in late August.Someone downloaded the Simple Chinese client has found something interesting.

    For the censorship of the govnerment,and for "harmony",many things are substantially changed.Death Knight as an "evil" class is also modified.All skull has been removed,DK's class mount,the skull gryphon,has been replaced by ghost gryphon.All the word "death" is removed,the DK abilities,like Death Coil/Death and Decay,is renamed as "Fade Coil"/"Fade and Decay".Death Strike is renamed as "Spirit World Strike",and the blood on the icon is also dissappeared.Strangulate is also renamed to avoid the meaning of "kill".But what I really cannot understand is,since they have removed all "death" in the ability names,why they didn't rename the class name of Death Knight?They had already renamed Rogue.Rogue is renamed as Stealther,because the original Chinese name of "Rogue" has the meaning of thief and robber.

    In the end,I think the ghost gryphon is pretty cool.

    New account is not allowed to post pics.Thanks for Graden's help,he has posted the pictures below.

    Didn't someone just make a thread a few mins ago about Death Knights in China?

    Infact that text is almost the exact same as what was posted.

    EDIT: Turns out your that other poster. Why did you make 2 threads about this when you could have just edited your last one?

    Last I read, Death Knights were removed completely from the Chinese version of WoTLK. Undead don't have bones showing either lol. Seems to be an issue with skeletons and bones in WoTLK which doesn't make it too much of an expansion in China as you could imagine.

    The Ghostly Gryphon skin is the same as the Ghostly Gryphon flight path in Eastern Plaguelands on live atm.

    If your side controls the tower in Plaguewood, near Stratholme you can talk to an NPC outside the tower who can fly you to any other tower in the zone (I believe even uncontrolled ones).

    Id have chosen that Gryphon on my DK over the Skeletal one anyday.
