The best bet would be to play to the debuffing side since no classes have that many debuffs (warlocks having the most), but then you run into the problems I mentioned, and having the DPS-enhancing based debuffs that wouldn't be as big of a problem (as opposed to the mobs-ability based debuffs) would conflict with the warlock.
Player housing is a definite positive in most of the ways they could do it. Frankly I'd like them to have cheaper instanced housing and difficult to get and maintain guild housing. In a small but content rich game like WoW, non-instanced landscape is expensive, but I'm sure they could cap the number of houses and then assemble requirements to procure the houses (in a hopefully non-monetary way. Making housing cost more than it's worth to progress a guild effectively kills the primo-housing going to the best raiding guilds on the server). |
Deathknight differentiate from a shaman???? they arent even remotely the same. The problem is most the abilities a DK had in say WC3 are warlock abilities in WoW.
Once again DK would have been better straight from the beginning giving horde a plate class besides warrior.
