Twisted Nether Wiki compiles a nice list of WoW utilities

A few folks over at the Twisted Nether Wiki have done a great thing and compiled a nice full list of all of those little online WoW utilities that we talk about every once in a while. From character improvement tools like Be Imba! to resources like Kaliban’s Loot Lists and even humor sites like [...]

Good news, Europe is once again feeling some free character migration love. Blizzard has announced a week-long migration event in an attempt to balance out factions on specific servers. So if you’ve been looking to migrate, this might well be a good time.

The Care and Feeding of Warriors: Small changes

Each week, The Care and Feeding of Warriors looks at the warrior class, the dizzying highs, the devastating lows, and the agony and ecstasy of plate wearing, rage using toons everywhere in Azeroth, Outland and Northrend. Matthew Rossi is our slightly demented, hirsute guide to all things warrior. We’re not kidding, the guy’s really hairy. [...]

Scattered Shots: Climbing Hunter talent trees

Welcome to Scattered Shots. I am Eddie “Brigwyn” Carrington from The Hunting Lodge and I’ll be your tour guide each Thursday as we explore what makes our Hunters tick and how we can make them better.
I’ve read comments here, over on the Official Forums, and other Hunter blogs and forums saying how Blizzard is forcing [...]

Warlock Q&A with Ghostcrawler and pals

Blizzard just released their Warlock Q&A with Ghostcrawler and pals. This follows in the series of many others, which you can find in WoW.com’s Guide to Patch 3.2.

Shadow Priest questions answered

Shadow Priests have been up in arms all over the official forums recently, and it seems to have reached a bit of a breaking point.

Since it’s unofficial, the questions asked [...]

WoW Moviewatch: A Death Knight’s Tale – The Battle for Light’s Hope Chapel Cinematic Movie

Today’s WoW Moviewatch is a little bit of a repeat, but in an odd way. Shadowline1990’s A Death Knight’s Tale – The Battle for Light’s Hope Chapel Cinematic Movie is another revisit version of the Death Knight closing cinematics. You might recognize Shadowline1990 as the guy who made The Culling of Stratholme – a WoW [...]

China’s gold farming ban not really a ban

The other day, we reported on China’s recent ban on trading real currency for virtual goods, and it was hailed as the end of gold selling in the MMO world. Unfortunately, it may not actually play out that way. While this would put a stop to some gold selling, it won’t stop all of it [...]

Around Azeroth: Nightfall

Matt took this screenshot while leveling a tauren alt through Mulgore. I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a good angle, but it looks completely natural, as if the shadows themselves were encroaching on Thunder Bluff, feeding off the essence of all that is good and pure until the residents are nothing [...]

Breakfast Topic: Is Blizzard doing faction change the right way?

Blizzard can pull off some real surprises sometimes. This whole thing about Paid Faction Changes came totally from left field, and even though we know players have been asking for it I don’t think any of us really expected that it would happen. For the precognitive among us, did you think they’d do it this [...]
