Im curious to see the screen layout for DK, how do you know what runes are active how much RP you have and other stuff like that. In one statement, i want to see how the DK essentials are diplayed to you. If any Beta players have a Screen shot that would be awesome.

Runic power goes up like rage does for a warrior.

Certain abilities require you to have X amount of a type of rune free. If you don't have the rune active, then the ability is grayed out, exactly as if you didn't have enough energy, mana or rage for it to work. The runes themselves you can see the cool down on during a fight; they wind down like a spell on a cool down.

Runic power is numbered 0-100, like rage/energy.

Scarlet Peasant in the screenshot: "Ungh... I... I think I pooped..." Smiley: lol

On the UI, sitting down the bottom just between the quest log and talents window is a button with a shield-like image. Where does that lead to? Is it a new feature for the game/this class, or is it just a thing for Beta?

rofl! I didn't catch that until I read your post. Too funny :D

Anyway I'm also curious about that shield thingy, as well as the one with the Horde symbol: between "Social" and "LFG" tabs. What are those? o.O

Beta is being a ***** right now, saying "UNABLE TO CONNECT", has been all day, so I'll do my best to TRY to remember what those were.

First, the Horde symbol. See, they added in a feature to allow you to keep track off all your pvp tokens on one screen, so I'm assuming that is what it's there for.

The shield I'm guessing is for achievements.


And BTW, the only reason I have that screenshot is because of the "I think I pooped" part ^_^

There are a couple of differences between Rage and RP though; RP is only generated when you use abilities that expend Runes. You don't regenerate it through normal melee attacks, from incoming damage, or from abilities that use RP to activate like Howling Blast/Dancing Rune Blade etc.

The display of Runes and RP has changed about four times already, Blizzard seem to be having a really hard time deciding on how to do it.

At one time it was a glowing aura on a picture of a sword next to your portrait, and the glow got longer if you had more RP (cant find a shot of that anymore...).
It's also been a little crescent-shaped blue meter that grows upwards next to your portrait: http://wotlkwiki.info/up2/pages/dk/quests/2ufq98z.jpg
And it's currently a very boring horizontal bar like Rage or Energy as you can see in Billie's shot.

Well that sounds pretty kool, just hope blizz can settle on something suiting to DK. The **** line is awesome and me and my bro had a good long laugh about it. Thanks for the info.

Undead Death Knight FTW!
