Prot pallys doing damage feels weird, too. I still have a shitty 41.2dps spelldam weapon and I'm hitting for 300-400 with my hammer spell. Yarr!
Do you have Holy Shield slam yet? Everything I've read points to that being  Nope, only just to play for the first time Friday night and yesterday morning. (With no sub. even, har!) They let so many folks in that the server's been very very laggy/ crashy for the last several days so I quit after an hour or two. I've gotten a DK through the starter area, but haven't been able to do anything in Northrend at all.

Wow, that's *way* more than mine do on live in tank gear. I can push it to around that or a little higher with full dps gear, battle shout up, and a 5 stack of sunders with a S2 axe - 1820 AP or so. Maybe the difference is just what type of gear I was assuming was being used. I can't get into Northrend to test there, world server has been down all day. EDIT: This just in, I need to lay off the damn crack pipe. My full stack devastates are going for over 600 in the beta with AP gear stacked and everything procced.

Quick Q that has no doubt been answered elsewhere but I couldn't see it in 10 secs of searching:
Does the Death Knight take up one of the 10 character slots on a server?

Yes. And you can only have one per server on live (right now it's "make all you want") They start with 7 16 slot bags and a full flight map, though. So that's not shabby. You wind up with a full set of blues after finishing the zone, too.

The one per server isn't a problem. It's the "Oh Noes! Which character do I get rid of?" that's going to be a problem. Still, I've got 2 months to work it all out. 3 by the time I actually decide to create one.
Probably ditch the Shaman because I hate his guts.

You can always transfer someone to another server, thus freeing up a slot.

Seeing how easy it is to get a character to a main town and mail bags to them I don't think it's that great to use a DK, because a DK is locked to one a server. So you'd have to organise moving all the shit to another character if you ever had the desire to play the DK.

Surely people already have their bank alts outfitted and slots bought? Currently there are 10 slots per server for characters which leaves you space for 1 of each class and a random extra for a bank alt. My understanding is that they aren't increasing the number of server character slots so to run a dk means either deleting your bank alt or one of the other 9 slots. As most of my other characters on my home server are of significant level already I've been gearing up to delete my bank alt. Already passed his guild leadership to one of my other chars so all I will lose is the single bank slots he bought and a a few bop items he's got from holiday crap.

I wasn't going to click the spoilers link but I'm sort of glad I did. But I don't understand the implications - what does that mean for players who, for example, don't get the expansion or are too low level?

Follow-up questline spoilers: That sounds very cool indeed. Also,there's new models for Sylvanas and the King of SW. The sylvanas model is spot-on imho. New Sylvanas!  New King of Stormwind

That's a better pic of Sylvanas. The one pic I've seen of her so far was small and with the lack of detail she looked like a Blood Elf.

+ I think they're doing it with the new "zone phasing" they're introducing with LK. The best example of this you see is the Death Knight area, where you see or don't see things as you ocmplete the zone. At one point the entire newbie area is KoS to you and filled with scarlet crusaders. As you advance that changes and npcs show up/ disappear to advance the story line. It's pretty damn cool, but does lead to some problems. For example, with the new motorcycle mount, you can have 2 people ride around on it. This creates problems in some of the upper level zones if one person has done quests that have made mobs disappear, while the other one hasn't. There was a post about a dad who drove his son's character (who was in the sidecar) into the middle of a bunch of aggro mobs because dad didn't see them.
