Ding! WoD Beta leveling impressions

11 Comments
After seeing the Tanaan Jungle intro zone and Shadowmoon Valley one too many times, I've finally made my way through the rest of the zones and hit level 100. The servers were stable enough to allow me to do this without pulling out my hair, so kudos to the Blizzard server engineers who bent over … Continue Reading ››

"Mutton yesterday, mutton today, and blimey, if it don't look like mutton again tomorrer... "
Recently while leveling up in Spires of Arak, I ran into my favorite vignette yet! For those not in the know, vignettes are rare mobs or little "events" that you will find throughout Draenor. Each one of them gives you loot … Continue Reading ››

WoD Beta: Survival PvP concerns

10 Comments
Survival isn't in the best shape for PvP as it stands.

Pet of the Week: Hook Wasps

6 Comments
Hook wasps were originally slated to be in their own Exotic Pet family, but Blizzard later decided to just merge them with regular wasps. I can only hope the special ability they were going to have, Flutter, will make it into the rylak repertoire or some other pet family in the future. I've always … Continue Reading ››
