Spooncraft

Hejsan hoppsan i lingonskogen Spooner.
So I thought starting a shaman. Everyone keeps saying it’s fun but I wanna know what’s the best way to level for an orc shaman? It took me 2 years (yeah, unbelievable, I know) to get to 70 with my warlock, and as you have so many 70s (if I got [...]

Dear Spoon,

I have a problem. I am a level 70 Draenei Paladin who wants to raid. Problem is my main spec is retribution, and no one lets me in because “retribution sucks”. I’ve asked some guildmates, but they just keep saying switching to holy or protection. But I can’t stand being holy, I’ve been holy [...]

I just got this email a few moments ago and the question couldn’t be better.

You can ask me a question that will probably be featured here on the site by using the Contact El Spooner link located on the right menu bar.
I got an email today from a reader asking two pretty good questions. Both of which involve PVP to some degree. They came from a J. Rundell who [...]

So I got an email the other day from one of my readers who is having problems with the site. No complaints it’s not that kind of email, basically he views the site from work and for one reason or the other he cannot see the item links I put into my articles and posts.
I’ve [...]

It’s been a while since I did an Ask Spoon, then again it’s been a while since I got a serious question. Usually it’s just some prick asking something pervy or randomly typing as many curse words and talking like a lube chugging thug until he runs out of room on the contact form. Either [...]

Putting the mom jokes aside for a few minutes, what exactly is the best mount? I only bring this up because I got into the discussion yesterday with one of my readers. There is a lot of news as of late with mounts. First it was the new PVP mounts, the Black War Elekk and [...]

It’s taken me a bit to write this segment of Ask the Spoon since I had to backtrack a bit and dig up stuff from the old memory bank (also I wanted to make sure I was answering your question correctly) I got an email from a reader the other day with a really good [...]

I recently got an email from a Warlock.
Damnit Spoon - I can’t get higher than 697 spell damage buffed up with priest, druids, and pallys. Crap, I wanna get 800 bud - get me some spell damage.

FANMAIL! So today’s message comes from Sasuke who writes:
Dear Spooner,
I am a Blood Elf and I ran the new instance yesterday and the orb of the sindorie dropped. Why is this here and what is the difference between the orb of deception?
Thanks for the letter Sasuke. You must be talking about this Orb of Deception [...]

Dear Spooner,
I played a warrior since beta, I’ve been main tanking for a very very long time. I stopped playing the game around the time the expansion came out and I just now got into it. I know about all the different class changes but what the hell happened? I can’t get a group at [...]

It took me a while to get things up and running so I could address this question the right way (in fancy words, I did a lot of research). I received this question today from Monk:
“I am debating staying frost or changing to PoM pyro and hvy arcane. The frost just doesnt seem to do [...]

I want to start this installment of Ask the Spoon with this little number as it made me more than chuckle.
Dear Spoon,

Ok once more to make up for my lack of presence over the weekend (I am slowly rotting from the inside as I write this) I’m going to serve up a two-fer. Here are two questions emailed to me about the site and the game we all pledge our undying souls to. I swear I [...]
