Wotlk has been out for a while now and the death knight class has taken a lot of criticism. Has blizzard gotten what they wanted out of making a new class? If not what effect has this addition had on the game even after wotlk is done? Also what did they want out of it? can dks be considered a real class? And what will happen to them in cataclysm, will people still play them, will they add new lore for their continuing existence, or will a major nerf bat hit them in the face, or will they be balanced out to the status of a normal class?
