That is interesting about the SW Cathedral towers.

@Zupa: Well, you have a ready made group of friends, you are always welcome to drop by…

Check out the WoWDawgs podcast for some interesting discussions on DeathKnights… apart from all the other great resources out there…

That sounds fair enough I suppose, but I agree, flying around the old world would be cool.

As for the death knight. Super fun! I am now torn between levelling Zupa to 80 and devoting time to Zupette on aman’thul.

I think I will always be a mage first and foremost, but I’m not above running around as a hottie dranei death knight for a while :) My first impression of the DK is just awesome.

Bliz pulled a bunch of graphical tricks with the old cities that would require them to completely rebuild them in order to allow flying.

For example, there are FOUR Cathedral towers in Stormwind. The real one in the center of town, and three fake ones spread throughout the city. This is so the landmark will be visible from anywhere in the city limits.
