New Allied Race DKs and Runeforging

Community General Discussion

Hallo, good day/evening! I made this post to point out a possible oversight that could have occurred regarding the separate scenario Allied Race Death Knights receive as an initiation before starting the game proper.

At the moment, you are given a quest or two which grants you an opportunity to change Talents, and receive a weapon from Bolvar - before Darion Mograine opens a Death Gate to Stormwind. However, nowhere in the entire short initiation are you told about the special feature Death Knights get, which is Runeforging.

For sure, there is of course the Runeforging tooltip in the spellbook telling you all about it - and where to get it done - but unlike the core race introduction that explicitly gives you a quest near the start for Runeforging, this can somewhat easily be oversighted in the Allied Race scenario.

Should there possibly be some sort of arrangement within the Allied Race DK initiation for informing/reminding the player that Runeforging is essential?

I never picked up on that, I was too worried about not getting my death gate :joy:. (it just randomly appeared in my spell book).

I think Allied Race Death Knight introduction quest is incomplete to say at best.
Blizzard, definitely, should have thought about adding a tiny explanation about Death Knight unique powers and, well, toolkit.

Yes, Runeforging should be explained or, at least, mentioned.

There’s an easy fix to this

Make it into a 3 part quest. Change talents > get weapon > runeforge it

Seems odd they never mention it

I agree! They could at least lazily add a Runeforge in a corner just for that scenario, or make Darion send you to Acherus - and then to Stormwind after you’re done.
