The new hero class from Blizzard's Wrath of the Lich King expansion for World of Warcraft has been shrouded in mystery over the past few months. Speculations and several clarifications have been thrown back and forth between the developers and the players on how the Death Knight will play out its role once it goes live.

A special feature on Ten Ton Hammer focused on the different abilities and perks the upcoming class will be getting. It basically compiles all the information released by Tom Chilton during a series of press releases on the upcoming content for Wrath of the Lich King.

We've already covered many of the topics that were discussed by Chilton, such as the one Death Knight per account limit and the unique character class fusion with the Death Knight class. However, he opened up new ideas like the mechanics behind the Death Knight's rune magic and more.

Blizzard Poster Nethaera eventually went online and pulled in the reins of everyone riding this very hyped up bandwagon. She mentioned that while the Death Knight will be given a special focus in the upcoming expansion, every class will still be getting their fair share of new abilities and power ups.

The most important thing the developers wanted was to make sure that the new class was balanced out enough compared the other playable classes. She ensured that each class will have their own appeal once Wrath of the Lich King finally goes live.
