*rubs hands*

Innnnnteresting... a new beta patch for WotLK.

I wonder if this will have the Rogue update in it?

I'll check when the damn server isn't crashing every three minutes.

Part of the problem is that the Death Knights got screwed over in this patch - not from skill / talent changes or anything.

It's just that they added 2 new quests that prevent you from re-specing until you complete them.

Simultaniously, they made it so that Horde and Alliance DKs all use the same DK city, and seem to have wiped their respective faction reputation level (Horde/Alliance, that is).

Completing the first quest is an exercise in futility, as the lag is thick enough to choke a horse; however you will eventually luck out on it by somehow tagging a mob that then runs across the entire screen and gets killed by someone else.

Or you'll help kill Patckwerk 10 times and finish it that way.



Then you get to take a letter to your home city, where the people there will either cower in fear, spit on you, or run away. Completing that quest means you get Friendly status with that faction and can now respec.

However, the lag is still thick enough to choke a horse, because all the people who are trying to kill 10 Scourge and Patchy are still in the same area; you just can't see them anymore.
