As our 10-man raiding team gets to know one another better and as we progress through Ulduar, picking off Hard Modes and achievements as we go, it is becoming more and more fun. Raiding with the rest of Coffee is ok for loot and EP points – but it isn’t fun. I may never, at [...]

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts over the last week or so, mainly as research but also because I enjoy listening to them. Just a quick rundown here with links at the bottom. Enjoy. There is one I have been listening to for over a year, World of Warcast. It’s a fantastic podcast [...]
Our usual 10-man Ulduar raid group has been tackling the instance for a while now and our wonderful mage Kaeden has begun making videos of our boss fights. The first three are up now over at YouTube. Please feel free to take a look: Coffee versus Flame Leviathan (with 2 Towers up) Coffee versus Razorscale [...]

Let’s be quite clear. I love raiding. And perhaps not for the reason most people do – loot. No, I enjoy raiding for the complexities of getting 10 or 25 people who probably don’t know one another to work together to a common goal. To get certain individuals to do unique jobs while keeping an [...]

It’s the only one I just can’t get my head round properly. I don’t know why. It SHOULD be fun…but for some reason…it isn’t. Maybe it’s the torch juggling. I’m not good at it! Anyone got a guide they can link? I really want the achievements and the gear and all that. EDIT: Alright. I [...]
I know it’s been a while but I’m coming back with a little bit of a rant. Bear with me. This Argent Tournament lark…what’s the point? Mounted combat is utterly lame. The dailies are money earners of which we had many anyway. And what happens when the Colluseum is built? More mounted combat? No thank [...]
Seems unlikely I’ll bag this meta achievement as I’m away for a few days and very busy at the moment. That means I won’t be able to do a guide either…fortunately, someone beat me to it anyway. Here’s a very useful, very funny video giving you a rundown of how to make money out of [...]
Noblegarden a pretty awful World Event if I’m honest – but it DOES carry a very nice title and for that reason alone it’s worth doing (as well as the overall achievement for completing all World Events, of course). The title in question is “[character name] the Noble” – isn’t that great? What is nice about [...]
Reproduced without permission from Massively.com – PLEASE do check it out, it’s fantastic.
EDIT (27/04/09): Seems this video has been made private. Not only that, at the time of writing, the Vollee website is down! Something is amiss for sure. Blizzard throwing their wait around, perhaps? I have no idea – does anyone else? It’s not often I get to combine a World of Warcraft story with a [...]
If you enter Northrend via the Howling Fjord then your introduction to Wrath of the Lich King instancing is very likely to be Utgarde Keep, home of Ingvar the Plunderer and just two other bosses. So how to take em down on Heroic? Like this… Prince Keleseth The first boss you come to is the Prince and [...]
Welcome to the first in a new feature of Heroic Dungeon Strategies. If you’re stuck or struggling with a particular boss, then this is where you should hopefully find they key to your problem. Starting then with the introduction to Wrath of the Lich King dungeons, The Nexus. There are a number of routes to [...]
One of the pleasures of being a tailor (and I assume a leatherworker) is the ability to craft non-essential but fun items. To be able to create an outfit for just the right occasion. Addons like Outfitter and ItemRack can be configured to automatically ‘dress’ you for a specific situation, such as fishing, eating, drinking…or [...]
Oh…my…God… When Wrath of the Lich King was first announced my immediate reaction was “They HAVE to have a frostwyrm mount available”. They didn’t…until now. Patch 3.1 brings a host of new mounts, MOST of which I will be able to obtain. But the damn frostwyrm will never be mine. I don’t do Arena! Instead, [...]
