Filed under: Patches, Analysis / Opinion, The Queue
Welcome back to The Queue, WoW Insider’s daily Q&A column where the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.
Ah, maintenance day. The day where I finally get to go out into the world and suck some sunshine [...]

Guildwatch: Just don’t say "priceless"

We got quite a few good photoshopped victory pictures in the email after our suggestion that you send us some a few weeks ago, so you’ll probably see a few of them here in the column over the next few weeks (assuming, that is, we don’t get any hilarious chat logs that we need to [...]

Around Azeroth: Icy blue heart

While questing in Coldarra, mage Sichas of Dentarg has forgotten the first rule of video games: ice monsters require fire magic to destroy them, and vice versa. And for some reason, water enemies are weak to lightning, which bears no resemblance to real life. I have yet to see flood waters be harmed by a [...]

WoW.com Profiles now support European characters

It took quite a bit longer than we’d expected, but it’s here: WoW.com Profiles now have EU support. The app, add-on, and site itself have been updated to be able to keep track of European characters once they’ve been added to your account on the site, and you do that just as you see above. [...]

Breakfast Topic: Is this too easy?

Recently, I decided to do something with all those Emblems of Heroism/Valor that were clogging up my currency tag, and so bought myself the heirloom shoulders and Bloodied Arcanite Reaper. I soon found myself in possession of a level 80 death knight (messing about with Frost and Blood specs, waiting for 3.2 to see if [...]

WoW.com running an instance live on Vocalo.org tomorrow at 4pm central

I’ve been working in coordination with a group called Vocalo.org here in Chicago for the past few weeks — they’re a community-oriented division of the public radio station WBEZ (the same station that produces NPR shows like “Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me” and “This American Life”), and I’ve been doing some interviews with their in-studio [...]

Videos from The Guild panel at SDCC ‘09

Fan of The Guild? Me too! And you didn’t go to Comic-Con last weekend? Me either. Fortunately for us, Microsoft kept the promotion cameras rolling almost the whole week long, and so there’s more footage of The Guild at Comic-Con than you probably have time to watch today (although as long as your boss stays [...]

Updates to WoW.com’s Guide to Patch 3.2

Patch 3.2 is getting very close to being ready for release. The patch has been out on the PTR for awhile now, and there are some great things coming to WoW with it; raid lockouts, new tier gear, new heirloom pieces, and some major mount changes.
For Patch 3.2 we’ve been steadily updating WoW.com’s Guide to [...]

Sam Raimi’s production diary

Oh, Lore Sjoberg, will you ever stop being awesome? I sure hope not. I’ve been a fan of his Book of Ratings and his webcomics (NSFW language, I guess) for a while, but apparently he’s been writing for Wired as well, and his latest column brings us Sam Raimi’s production diary from the Warcraft movie. [...]

Ancilorn wants to know your favorite form dance

For some reason, this post in the WoW Europe general forums asking what shapeshift form has the best dance moves makes me suspicious. The poll itself is innocuous enough, although I don’t understand why Tree of Life and Moonkin carry such a commanding lead (Cat is my personal favorite).
No, the suspicious part is: why [...]
