This is the first fully PvP zone of the game, it’s only fair its daily quests are PvP oriented. Well 3 out of 4 is and they are nice and fast too. They are all available in the Fortress if your faction controls it or in your village close to the fortress if you’re on [...]

It’s just been found out that there were some changes to Lake Wintergrasp in this latest build.

The losing team of Wintergrasp will now be rewarded as well as the winning side: Wintergrasp Defeat - “Grants the losing team 500 honor and 50 arena points for participating in Wintergrasp.” (Approx a third of what the winning [...]

As I have said before in the past, this zone has the potential to be something really great. Kalgan recently posted a list of changes coming to the zone as they focus their energy on it, trying to make it test ready.
Here’s a quick update on some of the things coming to Wintergrasp over the [...]

Lake wintergraps (as most of you know) is pretty much one of my main drives for the expansion pack. A player named Azurai in the Beta wrote a VERY good post with tons of feedback fully knowing that Wintergrasp is still in it’s infant stages for development. She got a reply from Blizzard not too [...]

I completely forgot to post these and instead of just rediting the already long (due to gallery scroll) post where we looked deeper into Lake Wintergrasp, I’m making this new post altogether.
These videos come via Blizzplanet, where they wrote some decent reviews and have more screenshots and other such things for you to browse.

PVP right now is one of the most vivid and important parts of the game to me. Sure there are times where I’d rather see content (when it’s new and shiny and I haven’t seen it obviously) but as soon as the afterglow fades it’s all about PVP for me.
There isn’t much going on right [...]

YES! This (and Death Knight) is the reason I am so freaking gung ho for the Wrath of the Lich King. Even got some images for you folks! If anybody else besides me has ever played a FPS game like Unreal Tournament and Tribes, then those vehicle bays where I can only hope siege weapons [...]

A lot of people can say the same thing as me on this subject. Lake Wintergrasp and the revitalization of world PVP is a VERY BIG FUCKING DEAL in the coming expansion.
Already a lot of people are pretty much dismissing the entire project with worries and jaded cynicism that it’s going to be just like [...]

Tom Chilton (Kalgan) had an interview with PC Gamer where, get this, he revealed that spell-damage only type gear will get replaced by a new system in WotLK.
PC Gamer: What else is changing?
Kalgan: We’re also going to be doing away with spell-damage only type gear. We’ll be moving to a system that, as part of [...]

These are both great ideas; some actual motivation for engaging in world PVP aside from a small zone buff or some easily replaceable items. It’s a great idea and leads to MANY different scenarios when you can have a buff for your entire faction across all of Northrend. As well if the idea holds true [...]

Finally some more detail on the biggest part of the expansion (from a gameplay POV) that I am looking forward to. Lake Wintergrasp.

The new vehicle technology, which introduces physics and handling characteristics - including inertia, turning circle, grip and suspension bounce - to land and airborne vehicles and special mounts. (Eurogamer.net)
It also allows for up [...]

There are some concerns about how Blizzards new entire PVP zone is going to work out, here’s a little blue tint to the discussion.
Q u o t e:
How is Lake Wintergrasp going to synergize with the amerna content though? Are the top-ranked arena teams going to have a reason to go into Lake Wintergrasp besides [...]

Players are obviously getting burned out on battlegrounds which is understandable. The idea of Lake Wintergrasp has the brats spouting stupidity about how it’s going to be a failure. I really wish these morons would just quit the game and leave the forums already if I wanted negativity and ignorance I’d watch Fox News.  Neth [...]

I reported a little while ago about the changes to drinking in Patch 2.4 and how the sole reason was to rebalance mana regen in arenas and the likes. It seems Blizzard got the point and dropped the whole charade. Yes it’s intended to stop cheap tactics in arenas, not a game wide nerf to [...]
