Howdy folks. This is a  little update for those of you not sitting at level 70 or perhaps wanting to help gear out an alt with some pretty rare and strong instance loot. Just like last time the Scourge invaded Azeroth, there are new and unique bosses in several undead-esque instances.
Sever: Lv. 21 Abomination in [...]

One the very few ongoing Machinima that has standed the test of time. From their passion in music, to mad love for Mega Man (and I hope the new game brings life back to the franchise); Baka Savants is doing a great job with this series. Can’t wait for Episode 30 though I feel like [...]

Caught this little snippet a while ago. I personally don’t look at it enough to care if it’s gone. However if the servers don’t have to load so much randomized junk information constantly and are more stable for it, then axe the sucker.
In an effort to improve performance, in the next minor patch, we will [...]

There are a lot of changes coming up including the great Paladin nerf (I really don’t think it’s so bad honestly) as well as the Hunter changes to aspects and such.
Death Knights got a little tweaking in the way of DPS increase in Blood. Druids got some barely noticeable drops in their DPS for feral [...]

Dear Mister Blizzard,
I’m sure you remember me, it’s Feilynn here sending you another one of my grand ideas for game improvement.  Now, I understand that most of my ideas have been considered and implemented but not really recognized (such as the bread vendor in Ironforge yelling “Fresh bread!  Cooked this very morning,” changed to “Fresh [...]

With Death Knights using what appears to be a modified energy system (think being a rogue with 3 energy bars and a rage bar), and feral druids pretty much being rogue clones in cat form; what’s the actual reason that rogue’s combo points are built on the target and not the player?
Personally I think that [...]

Nessaja should be writing this right now not me, bah! Could use some feedback from mages that visit the site, I can’t remember the last time I even had a mage other than Nessaja comment here. A little bit of prospective would be nice. Right now from an untrained point of view, I think Arcane [...]

The Blizzard Fan Art Program got some new submissions recently:

I recently had to give a crash course to a friend of mine on the Isle of Quel’danas and the Sunwell dailies. As typical of any PVP server, the sunwell isle is pretty much a major hotbed of world PVP where you play hide from the guards and stay away from the forest or beach. [...]

As a father, my worst nightmare is to outlive my children. I can only begin to imagine the horror that Micah Chatterton is feeling for the past few days. For those that do not know who Ezra is and what the significance he had to the World of Warcraft, read on.
Ezra was diagnosed with a [...]

Lazy ass World Server is always down. I don’t want to play on another server, or another character (not that it matters since they’re all located in Outland somehow). Bah! What’s maintenance for if not to fix this kind of crap from happening so often?
Enough griping, here be the recap:

Patch 3.0.3 PTR Class Changes Breakdown
Patch [...]

Another REALLY good discussion going on in this thread about skill and DPS and how some folks will cry wolf at their low output and blame it 100% on Blizzard or the class rather than themselves. It just strikes me as funny that people assume they can enter an instance without gems, enchants, smart talent [...]

The server itself isn’t broken per say, but the Battelgrounds are either always down or completely unplayable. There are mad reports of instances trapping players inside, servers crashing, world servers going down, people unable to logoff or login, cats and dogs living together, MASS HYSTERIA!
It has been nearly a week since we launched the biggest [...]

New Login-Protected Feature: Player Calendar
The Armory now supports the new Player Calendar, one of the new features added to the game in patch 3.0.2: Echoes of Doom. The Player Calendar allows players to create their own events such as raids, arena matches, and guild meetings, and keep track of the many activities in the worlds [...]

We got some really nice new additions this year to last year’s Hallow’s End (possibly my most favorite in game holiday and my definite most favorite real life holiday). Nessaja scored some quick screenshots to share since I’m doing this instead of playing hehe.
The Headless Horseman is still there but we’ve got some very interesting [...]

Once more presumably these changes will be coming in Patch 3.0.3 for the Live servers in preparation of retail release of Wrath of the Lich King. Credit to MMOC for pooling this info off the talent builders and skill lists.
Death Knight
Skills
Frost

Targets affected by Chains of Ice now regain 10% of their movement each second for [...]

Here’s a list of the glyphs changed in the latest Wrath of the Lich King Beta build 9095, I have reason to believe that these changes will be coming as well in Patch 3.0.3 which is going live at the end of October during the Halloween holiday event.

Death Knight

Glyph of Corpse Explosion - Any target [...]

Sorry for the radio silence and lack of speedy updates, I had some personal family stuff to attend to for a bit. Got a lot of news coming up today as well as some feature updates for you as well. Here’s the list of things to come and I’ll repost later tonight with links when [...]

No they haven’t forgotten about it. Not even 100% I haven’t posted this already somewhere but since I can’t remember, I’m putting up here NOW.
As a few people have pointed out, hardcore raiding guilds already respec in between bosses. All it takes is a little bit of patience, gold and maybe a warlock. The new [...]

Yeah it’s been a week since I last visited the webcomics world on this site, but there have been other things popping every 30 freaking seconds to throw me off course. Sorry Cru. Now! On to business!
Teh Gladiators are running up to Ep. 44 so far. Cru is having issues making the comic because of [...]

The game right now is in a pretty strange place. World servers are crashing much more consistently and the overall balance is completely fucked. The latter is to be expected because right now the game is balanced and tuned for Lv. 80 being the cap and the allowance of much higher end gear and scaling. [...]

I still haven’t logged on my Shaman today to pick up Toughness but I swear I WON’T FORGET NOW!
Here’s a little guide for those of you that have skinning, herbalism, or mining; you all got new abilities and spells trained from the profession NPCs.
Herbalists got Lifeblood. It’s an instant cast HOT spell that costs no [...]

DoT Crits
Originally, we liked the fact that dots didn’t crit. It’s one of the things that made them different from other types of spells. In turn, it meant that classes and specs that focused on dots cared about different stats than other classes. We think it’s interesting when say a ring drops, and the group [...]

Here’s a pretty comprehensive list of all the things you can pull off BEFORE Wrath of the Lich King launches. There are many more obviously with some pretty freaking nice rewards such as tabards, titles, or mounts; but some of the best cannot be done any time soon (Brewfest one is for 2009 for example) [...]

Just taking a moment right quick before I start slamming the site with newsy updates and such, to dwindle on some of the lighter topics that have popped into my head recently. I was a bit surprised (pleasantly so) that there was a lot in the patch that wasn’t really high enough on the profile [...]

I cannot possibly be making this shit up.
It may be somewhat dated news, but I cannot begin to grasp why in the HELL anybody would do this. The guy is running 36 individual accounts all under his name on his own credit card. Running them all adds up to $5711 each year in subscription [...]

Since it’s going to be a while before we get to play the new hotness on the live servers, I thoguht it would be wise to refresh everyone on all the changes that are hitting.
Below is a big list of all the mian points from dungeon and raid changes, barbershops, world changes in new areas, [...]

Hey everybody, here’s a quickie recap of everything that really set the crowd up during Blizzcon as far as World of Warcraft is concerned.
Wrath of the Lich King: Blizzard is churning out discs and finishing up WotLK, so expect it to be very much ready by Nov. 13th!
Upcoming Patches & Changes:

Patch 3.1 will be the [...]

Hey folks. Wandering the floor on Saturday, Infinite managed to snatch up a lot of different pictures from the random artwork around the convention as well as more costumes and con attendees.
There was a lot to see on Saturday and even though it was REALLY packed, it somehow felt as if there were less people [...]

I had to put this as a separate video simply because of the sheer visceral footage. I’ll let the video speak for itself (and once again please mind the off-color humor)
