Just a random 59 I seen in Org. Pretty neat twink!
 
Reminds me of this player I found in sw back in cata, not necessarily a twink, but nice to see

That is a really nice 59 DK. I played 59s during the 3.2 dark ages, and only two DKs dared to get on the field on a regular basis (because they were hard to use after the XP-off patch hit), and that wasn't one of them. That likely means whoever Jwillix is, they geared up between the 3.0 release, and the 3.2 XP-off patch. The Zandalar farm was a royal pain in the butt -- I spent more time getting my 2-piece for a 59 then I did for the entirety of leveling and gearing other twinks.

I recently made that Death Knight TBH. I got into 59 about 16 months ago, so I never experienced the Zanda farms :(

Edit: I have direct links to my 59s (and other twinks) in my bio if you'd wanna see a more in-depth inspection of them. I still need to farm DIR of strength / Fire opal on the Death knight :(

I didn't look closely -- I thought the Zandalarian gear was on the DK, now I realize it was on the rogue. I don't recognize the rogue name, so the same comments on timing probably apply.

...Still, you have a nice DK, and would have enjoyed 59s back in the day. With the high burst, you really had to watch your positioning, but when you got your timing right, a good DK could drive a wedge into the opposing line.
 
I believe the Zanda gear was class specific: therefore, I don't think Death Knights could have obtained it?
And the rogues name is visible if you look close enough too :)

I likely would have. around patch 3.0 is when I first started getting into twinking, So I arrived late to the 59 scene :(

Ah, you're right! I forgot about that.

Yep, I knew of no rogues ending in "steal". But to be fair, only Ruin 59s got games after 3.2, and even that was only for a couple of patches. Drak'Thul was (according to the internet) part of the Vengeance battlegroup.
