Is there a BEST setup/strategy in WoW?

I recently received the following comment to one of my posts:
Balanced said,
“Having played this game practically since the outset, I am still amazed that people think there is only one way to do things. If this is the case, why bother having talent trees at all? The way many of the commenters describe it, they [...]

Blizzard’s definition of “Soon”… oh and something about Sam Raimi

Blizzard has spelled out in legal terms their definition of “Soon™” in their news release last night.  They also revealed that Sam Raimi will be the director for the new Warcraft movie.
I absolutely loved the first Spiderman movie, but I’m not sure if that kind of experience can be translated over to Warcraft.  I’m going to try not [...]

Flirting in WOW

I normally play on male characters, so I don’t get a lot of exposure to people looking to pick up chicks in the online world.  Yes, we’ve had some issues in game with people sending inappropriate messages to our female guild members (we have about 7 females who play regularly in our guild), but I’ve never [...]

Time-Lost Proto-drake in my dreams

You know you play WOW too much when it invades your dreams.
I dreamed last night that my stupid level 61 Death Knight somehow found and killed the Time-Lost Proto-drake instead of my Holy Paladin main.  In my dream, it was a mistake… I was somehow logged on to the wrong character.  I even tried to put in a ticket [...]

“But really the more important point is you’re saying “The content will be too hard.” The content (assuming you’re [...]

Argent Tournament Updates for Patch 3.2

Blizzard has updated their Under Development page to highlight some of the additional updates they’ll be making to the Argent Tournament in Patch 3.2.  It sounds like there’s going to be a ton of new content with even more prizes to spend our Champion’s Seals on.  Those Champion’s Seals are hard to come by.  I [...]

Blizzard Quote - Paladins Can’t Heal

Haha, I found this funny.  It comes straight from Blizzard’s official website:
Get a Healer
“It’s difficult to play in dungeons without a healer. Preferably, you want to bring at least one Priest for healing and resurrection in a single role. Priests find themselves constantly private messaged for groups because their healing abilities are in high demand. [...]

Making Gold in WOW

I bought the Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth this weekend for 16,000 gold.  I was putting off buying it for a long time, because of the high cost (of course).  There was always something better to use my money on.  However, a loan got paid back to me so I decided it was time to take the plunge and I’m glad I [...]

Should Ulduar-10 give Emblems of Valor?

Eliah Hecht has a really good post up today on Wowinsider discussing Blizzard’s decision on how Emblems will work in Ulduar.  To summarize, Ulduar 10-man will drop Emblems of Valor, the exact same Emblems that currently drop from Naxx-25.  Only a few new ilvl213 items will be added to the Emblems of Valor vendor, even though [...]
