Blizzard is in serious danger of losing my subscription. Can they do anything about it? Do they want to?

We’re about two weeks away from the launch of the next expansion for World of Warcraft and I’m wondering if you’re excited about it? A year ago – almost to the day – I’d have been sat salivating at my keyboard from about now, desperately consuming every bit of information I could, preparing my warlock [...]

Remember this? “LFM Uld /w Achievement” Well now it’s been replaced with this: “LFM ICC10 /w GearScore” “LFM ICC25 5.2k gs only” “LFM weekly raid. /w gs and achievement” In some ways it is slightly fairer. When idiotic raid leaders wouldn’t let you join a raid because you didn’t have the Achievement I could only [...]

Here we are then, five years down the line (or 15 years for Warcraft) since World of Warcraft was launched by Blizzard. And I’m STILL playing. Why? What is it about WoW that keeps me coming back? What have I learned? When I rolled my first character in 2004, a Night Elf Warrior whose name [...]
475Mb of patch 3.3 in fact. Seems we’re close. Which is good. Because frankly, I’ve been getting very bored with World of Warcraft. Now I have a reason to push on for those last few bits of gear, that last mount. Might even PuG some raids in the absence of my Guild mates. Oh Arthas…I’m [...]

We all, I would think, have what we consider our mains. In my case, it is, of course, my Undead Warlock, Inoperante. He is my raiding and achievement toon [...]
I wasn’t there…but I’m proud of my premier raiding team.

Well, maybe not your frustration…but mine. Last night I tanked Trial of the Crusade (10-man) for the first time on my warrior. It really brought home the importance of Ventrilo (or Teamspeak if that is your thing). We began with me and a new-ish Paladin tank and it did not go well. Why? Well, our [...]
Getting this title has been an ambition for a while. Trying to do it the ‘traditional’ way always proved impossible. So why not just walk in, clear trash and then nuke Sartharion down, using only one tank, one healer and eight DPS? ZERG! It works, try it…
And thanks to our dead mage, we have a video!

You may have seen a post from last week regarding @alachia‘s Old Azeroth Flickr project. Well, I’ve been at it again, running around collecting screenshots and posting them up so we can preserve the sights of Azeroth before Deathwing destroys them all. Here’s a selection: Check out the rest of the shots in the group [...]
