Knights of Death
You would have undoubtedly noticed we have 3 scholar professions, 3 skirmisher professions but only 2 soldier ones. Why, dear Anet, have you ran out of ideas? Or maybe you are leaving the third soldier class up for player debate and suggestion. Well, whichever one of those two it is I have come up with a class that to me at least would be fun to play.
The Wight (the naming still remains to be decided upon)
A class that has high power attacks, while making them at the cost of its health. Would have the highest health in the game, which could be balanced with the removal of health using attacks. Skills are based upon siphoning life. The F1 being the character goes into death mode, each hit siphoning life from the enemy (at a good rate, not necro rate) and a speed boost to all attacks is given. Basically a hard hitting melee class with health siphoning and life leeching attacks. High risk high fun!
Or we could just fix necromancer to do this.

If we were allowed to have 2 classes at the same time then this could be easily done. Otherwise I don’t support it.
Because they don’t want to copy the death knights from WoW.
That said, it isn’t the first time arena.net has gone back on their word.
Just look at the first event of the fire and frost update: Fetch quests.
