I think everyone knows death knights start with their own gear, but unless you played in the beta you may not know the details.
Here’s a list of the gear a death knight starts with upon login. I’ll go over the gear you end up with at the end of the start area later.
- Plate armor and cloak you start with. Yes, your manly death knight starts with a skirt.
- Technically you don’t start with it, but you’ll get it from your second quest.
- These are 12 slot bags you’ll start with. They are enough to get through the start area with, but I would upgrade them after that.
You’ll also start with a hearthstone and half a stack of level appropriate, non-buffing food. There are food and general vendors in Ebon Hold, but you start with almost no cash. You can access a mailbox during your first series of combat based quests.
Your trinket and sigil (death knight range slot, like an idol or relic) slots are empty to start.

I’m enjoying reading your blog, gnomeDK. The list of mats for quests is particularly useful (and how I found it via the WoW Economist blog).
I’ve already got a rack of 18 slotters ready for my DK, plus about 5k gold for flying mounts for when he reaches outlands (probably not needed as much until 78).
Keep up the good work.
