Warrior or Death knight, ?!

[Revell55]

I'm leveling a warrior and a deathknight at the moment from the brutal welfarez, And in this process I've decided to stop at 77-79 and level those levels thru BG's some of you might not like it but it's my decision .

Anyway, I've gathered most my gear from the AH, planning to get some boosts of to get some blues as well,



My question is,



Which is most viable at 79 abouts, for example, do Dk's not have some ability that they really depend on in pvp at 79, whilst warriors might not suffer from this



Thank you for quick answers <3

if youre just talking about xp on bgs until you hit 80+...well then frankly it wont really matter. just buy all the cata gear you can get n go pewpew.

Word @ the above post. But right now warriors are very underpowered and have little to no survivability outside of prot (and when in prot, you do no damage).



However, everybody and their mom plays a DK these days, and they're lame seeing as they didn't exist during 70.







And don't go 74.

Fight the power no 74`s. what about 72 i`ve seen atleast 6 people in my last 6 matchs both horde and alliance with 72`s.

guys he said he's stopping at 77-79, this aint about 70-74

n warriors do get better as they get higher, at 80 they're not so bad...unlike at 70

If you're going to make a 79 twink you might as well just go the extra level and cap at 80

i dont even think 79's get bg que's at the moment. and dk's>warrioirs at 70 in the current state

They still lack colossus smash at 79. Though people arent running with resilience in that bracket so I guess you'll be able to do some damage. But still I'd go with DK.

i dont think there are any 79 xp off games us or eu. so yea, lvl thru BGs 77-79 for honor (and i suggest you do enough to cap honor, convert to JP till capped, then cap honor again to get at least 4pc wrathful as soon as you ding) and give 80s a try. warriors still dont have smash, but they do have some pretty good burst and are a lot more viable than at 70. frost dks are beasts to be reckoned with - they do a ton of burst with howling blast...enough to camp a GY and kill everyone as they res in 1-2 hits, maybe 3 for really geared players and/or if it doesnt crit. but you can do it, what, 4 times before even having to worry about rune regen thanks to death runes. which also makes them good in arena.



so i guess it depends on what you wanna do. i suggest trying 80. then just choose which class you like better, do you like warrior enough to give up the OP edge dks have? oh and us and eu both have xp-off pops for 80 and us has pretty good arena activity, and i assume eu does too
