New Features And Changes
As expansions are expected to, WotLK added some new features to WoW. New zones to explore and levels to gain are a given, but just as with Burning Crusade, this expansion brought some large changes to other aspects of the game as well.
Death Knight
First and foremost is the introduction of the Death Knight class. A melee class with dps and tanking capabilities, specialized in disease and undead minions.
Progression based Areas
In progressions based areas, completing an important quest will change the world around you. These areas are also known as 'Phased' areas. You can first encounter this in the Death Knight zone, where the city you do your quests in slowly transforms into a scourged wasteland. These special areas are similar to instances in that people who aren't located in the same phase cannot see you or interact with you in any way other than chat. This means that what you see outside is linked to where you are in the story, and not related to the actions of other players. The downside of all this is that you cannot co-operate with other players who are on a different stage of the questline. All in all, its100% pretty awesome to see the world changing around you. Beside the DK area, you can find such quest chains in Northrend at the Wrathgate in Dragonblight and in Icecrown.
Raids
All raid zones in Northrend can be played with 10 or 25 man, your choice. The 10 and 25 man versions of a raid zone have separate loot tables and instance id's (meaning you can be saved to a 10-man Naxxramas and hop right into a 25-man Nax raid).
