    Wink Your Love for the Death Knight

    What is your absolute favorite thing of being a Death Knight.
    -It can be the roles of the dk
    -An ability
    -The Looks
    -Facerolling other classes because you know how to play a Death Knight properly
    -To just... show the haters of Dk's
    -You can use Dk abilites irl, so this makes a connection with you in-game
    -You name it

    I get the satisfaction of being a competent DK that knows how to play their class, and proving the instant assumption that I'm a baddie.

    I got my dk to 70 to try him out, then to 75 before Cata cause I was bored, then deleted him. I didn't bother getting to 85 because I knew I'd hate it. They are the most boring class but hey, that's just me.

    WRONG! Those are the BEST discussions!

    I liked playing my DK because of the survivability. Other than that, it was kind of meh.

    I fell in love with the casino style play of frost. RNG w/ huge numbers all the way. I also enjoy tanking with a massive weapon instead of a shield.

    I enjoy the death knight simply because I enjoy the classes utilities and the ability for it to be very versatile in terms of what i want to do with him.

    I was drawn to the Rune system, really. I've always felt shared cooldowns could be used SO much better, to represent putting a little of each element into an attack, or chaining smaller ones.

    Then the Death Knight happened. Once I got over my "but everyone else likes them" aversion, Death Knight became my most beloved class ever. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

    And ghoul names are just plain awesome, and I love all the minor defensive-reaction abilities, so I can actually DO something about being attacked....
    Yeah. I love Death Knights for most of the possible reasons!

    I like the dark melee/caster hybrid theme, and the fun abilities like Death Gate, Path of Frost, Death Grip, Army of the Dead, etc.
    Blood especially has a bad-ass Alex Mercer of Prototype kinda feel to it for me. I just wish the worms appeared more often XD

    i was drawn to the original unholy spec, when UNholy blight was an AoE, you could become a ghoul after death...
    but i sticked with it for the play style of blood tanking

    I used to have a DK but then I stopped playing it.

    Recently however to get some escapism from all the douchebags in randoms, I started leveling one again.

    What do I love the most? The fact that I never die. Quests are batshit easy and being a tank means I don't have to wait the usual 45 minutes for dungeons to pop. Alot of people get touchy when dungeon ques start getting mentioned - but I've been playing dps classes since the beginning. This is the first time I've tried to level anything like a tank and I love it.

    The control you have. stuns, chains, silences, grip, and lots of defensive cooldowns + selfhealing.

    Facerolling/know how to play properly, bit of a contradiction of terms there ;P
    As for me, i just find death-knight tanking more enjoyable than my paladin.

    Tanking with a 2 hander, dont know why but I just love it.
    And the resource system, runes & RP just feel so well done now.

    I love the survivability and tanking is a blast. Love death gripping some mob just when they are about to mess with my healer
