Hey folks, I just stumbled across this post on the WotLK Beta Death Knight forums. We haven’t really had the chance to see a Death Knight tanking, and I must admit I am very excited. I love to tank, always have, and Death Knights seem like just the right challenge for me. Thanks for the video Glorn.
Just a simple video of me tanking the last half of The Nexus. I edited out most of the downtime and a couple of the trash pulls.

Was my spec, its intent was mostly TPS with a little emphasis on survivability. Given a chance to do it again I’d probably go into blood further to get the parry talent. My deathcoil was bugged throughout the whole instance but I held back from spamming it as much as possible and tried to gauge how many I’d really be able to cast. I’m still pretty clumsy with my DK as you can see, but I do a fairly good job of tanking I think outside of getting hit pretty hard.
Sorry for the choppy editing, this was a fairly quick job and I don’t feel the need to do anything fancy with it. Apologies for the few audio artifacts.
lol took me a while to figure out TPS was “Threat Per Second.” I was thinking office space… now someone needs to make a mod called “TPS Report”. ^_^
Yeaaaaahhhh you’re going to have to come in on Saturdayyyyyy so if you can just do that then that’d be greeeeaaaaat.
hey thanks for the video, i’ve been looking for examples of DK tanking for a while shown in video form. Havn’t been able to get into beta, so any more of these types of videos would be much appreciated.
Hehe dk seems like a nice tank… loved the music selection too :0 gogo jethro
