Death Knight

And it’s in stores on November 13, just under 2 months away. We haven’t seen anything official from Blizzard yet, but there is a reportedly official ad on wowhead.

Rumours are that Blizzard will make an announcement in a few days.

Update:

It’s official. Also the contents of the collector’s edition have been announced:

• World of Warcraft: The Wrath of the Lich King on DVD-ROM.
• The Art of World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, a 208-page book featuring never-before-seen images from the game.
• An exclusive in-game pet: Frosty, the baby frost wyrm.
• A behind-the-scenes DVD containing over an hour of developer interviews, the Wrath of the Lich King intro cinematic with director’s commentary, and more.
• The official soundtrack CD, containing 21 epic tracks from the game, along with exclusive bonus tracks.
• A mouse pad featuring a map of the newly opened continent of Northrend.
• Two World of Warcraft Trading Card Game March of the Legion™ starter decks, along with two exclusive cards available only in the Collector’s Edition.

Yep, that’s right. You can watch it on the official site, here.

Blizzard has announced a new feature in WotLK, called “achievements”. You might be familiar with the concept from other games.

Basically, there will be a set of objectives that players can complete to get cosmetic rewards such as tabards, pets and titles and some of them seem like fun. They are split up in categories such as PvP (e.g. killing 50 enemy players in your faction’s capital city), Raids and Dungeons (every end-boss will be an achievement), Professions (advancing to a tier of a profession), Quests (such as completing certain quest lines), Events, World Exploration, Reputation and General which will include such things as getting a shave and haircut.

When the expansion launches, there will be 500 achievements and Blizzard is planning to ad new ones in the future.

As you have seen here : Death Knights will start with a nice armorset (unlike our other characters: Thug Shirt FTL). It is heavily based on Strength and Stamina and has a nice named sword: Massacre.  In total the stats come to : +166 Strength, +100 Stamina and +38 Agility.
